An open-source tool for negation detection: a maximum-margin approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an open-source toolkit for negation detection. It identifies negation cues and their corresponding scope in either raw or parsed text using maximummargin classification. The system design draws on best practice from the existing literature on negation detection, aiming for a simple and portable system that still achieves competitive performance. Pretrained models and experimental results are provided for English.

Comparison of Open Source Learning Management Softwares and Presenting a Native Evaluation Tool
Introduction: Nowadays all educational institutes are trying to use technology in their structure. This effort has been faced with different barriers, including cost, time, and support. Therefore, using open source softwares can partially help us in using technology. In this article, we review main features of several open source learning management softwares, while presenting a tool which incl...
متن کاملExtraction of Drug-Drug Interaction from Literature through Detecting Linguistic-based Negation and Clause Dependency
Extracting biomedical relations such as drug-drug interaction (DDI) from text is an important task in biomedical NLP. Due to the large number of complex sentences in biomedical literature, researchers have employed some sentence simplification techniques to improve the performance of the relation extraction methods. However, due to difficulty of the task, there is no noteworthy improvement in t...
متن کاملA Maximum Entropy Approach to Sentence Boundary Detection of Vietnamese Texts
We present for the first time a sentence boundary detection system for identifying sentence boundaries in Vietnamese texts. The system is based on a maximum entropy model. The training procedure requires no hand-crafted rules, lexicon, or domain-specific information. Given a corpus annotated with sentence boundaries, the model learns to classify each occurrence of potential end-of-sentence punc...
متن کاملDASTWAR: a tool for completeness estimation in magnitude-size plane
Today, great observatories around the world, devote a substantial amount of observing time to sky surveys. The resulted images are inputs of source finder modules. These modules search for the target objects and provide us with source catalogues. We sought to quantify the ability of detection tools in recovering faint galaxies regularly encountered in deep surveys. Our approach was based on com...
متن کاملDependence-Guided Random Test Generation
Random test generation is a promising and easy-to-use automatic test generation technique. However, it still faces challenges to be effective in practice. A poorly-understood but important factor in random testing is the selection of test candidates such as method-call sequences (in short, sequences) in testing object-oriented programs. Automatic generation of good sequences is challenging due ...
