Application-Driven Relation Extraction with Limited Distant Supervision
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent approaches to relation extraction following the distant supervision paradigm have focused on exploiting large knowledge bases, from which they extract substantial amount of supervision. However, for many relations in real-world applications, there are few instances available to seed the relation extraction process, and appropriate named entity recognizers which are necessary for pre-processing do not exist. To overcome this issue, we learn entity filters jointly with relation extraction using imitation learning. We evaluate our approach on architect names and building completion years, using only around 30 seed instances for each relation and show that the jointly learned entity filters improved the performance by 30 and 7 points in average precision.

Distant Supervision for Relation Extraction beyond the Sentence Boundary
The growing demand for structured knowledge has led to great interest in relation extraction, especially in cases with limited supervision. However, existing distance supervision approaches only extract relations expressed in single sentences. In general, cross-sentence relation extraction is under-explored, even in the supervised-learning setting. In this paper, we propose the first approach f...
متن کاملModeling Relations and Their Mentions without Labeled Text
Several recent works on relation extraction have been applying the distant supervision paradigm: instead of relying on annotated text to learn how to predict relations, they employ existing knowledge bases (KBs) as source of supervision. Crucially, these approaches are trained based on the assumption that each sentence which mentions the two related entities is an expression of the given relati...
متن کاملRelation Extraction Using TBL with Distant Supervision
Supervised machine learning methods have been widely used in relation extraction that finds the relation between two named entities in a sentence. However, their disadvantages are that constructing training data is a cost and time consuming job, and the machine learning system is dependent on the domain of the training data. To overcome these disadvantages, we construct a weakly labeled data se...
متن کاملDistant Supervision for Relation Extraction with Ranking-Based Methods
Relation extraction has benefited from distant supervision in recent years with the development of natural language processing techniques and data explosion. However, distant supervision is still greatly limited by the quality of training data, due to its natural motivation for greatly reducing the heavy cost of data annotation. In this paper, we construct an architecture called MIML-sort (Mult...
متن کاملJoint Distant and Direct Supervision for Relation Extraction
Supervised approaches to Relation Extraction (RE) are characterized by higher accuracy than unsupervised models. Unfortunately, their applicability is limited by the need of training data for each relation type. Automatic creation of such data using Distant Supervision (DS) provides a promising solution to the problem. In this paper, we study DS for designing endto-end systems of sentence-level...
