A Study on Dependency Tree Kernels for Automatic Extraction of Protein-Protein Interaction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Kernel methods are considered the most effective techniques for various relation extraction (RE) tasks as they provide higher accuracy than other approaches. In this paper, we introduce new dependency tree (DT) kernels for RE by improving on previously proposed dependency tree structures. These are further enhanced to design more effective approaches that we call mildly extended dependency tree (MEDT) kernels. The empirical results on the protein-protein interaction (PPI) extraction task on the AIMed corpus show that tree kernels based on our proposed DT structures achieve higher accuracy than previously proposed DT and phrase structure tree (PST) kernels.

OBJECTIVE Knowledge about protein-protein interactions (PPIs) unveils the molecular mechanisms of biological processes. The volume and content of published biomedical literature on protein interactions is expanding rapidly, making it increasingly difficult for interaction database administrators, responsible for content input and maintenance to detect and manually update protein interaction inf...
متن کاملSentence Similarity based on Dependency Tree Kernels for Multi-document Summarization
We introduce an approach based on using the dependency grammar representations of sentences to compute sentence similarity for extractive multi-document summarization. We adapt and investigate the effects of two untyped dependency tree kernels, which have originally been proposed for relation extraction, to the multi-document summarization problem. In addition, we propose a series of novel depe...

متن کاملExploiting graph kernels for high performance biomedical relation extraction
BACKGROUND Relation extraction from biomedical publications is an important task in the area of semantic mining of text. Kernel methods for supervised relation extraction are often preferred over manual feature engineering methods, when classifying highly ordered structures such as trees and graphs obtained from syntactic parsing of a sentence. Tree kernels such as the Subset Tree Kernel and Pa...
