Distributed Word Representations Improve NER for e-Commerce
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a case study of using distributed word representations, word2vec in particular, for improving performance of Named Entity Recognition for the eCommerce domain. We also demonstrate that distributed word representations trained on a smaller amount of in-domain data are more effective than word vectors trained on very large amount of out-of-domain data, and that their combination gives the best results.

A Study of Neural Word Embeddings for Named Entity Recognition in Clinical Text
Clinical Named Entity Recognition (NER) is a critical task for extracting important patient information from clinical text to support clinical and translational research. This study explored the neural word embeddings derived from a large unlabeled clinical corpus for clinical NER. We systematically compared two neural word embedding algorithms and three different strategies for deriving distri...
متن کاملSpanish NER with Word Representations and Conditional Random Fields
Word Representations such as word embeddings have been shown to significantly improve (semi-)supervised NER for the English language. In this work we investigate whether word representations can also boost (semi-)supervised NER in Spanish. To do so, we use word representations as additional features in a linear chain Conditional Random Field (CRF) classifier. Experimental results (82.44 Fscore ...
متن کاملThe Unreasonable Effectiveness of Word Representations for Twitter Named Entity Recognition
Named entity recognition (NER) systems trained on newswire perform very badly when tested on Twitter. Signals that were reliable in copy-edited text disappear almost entirely in Twitter’s informal chatter, requiring the construction of specialized models. Using wellunderstood techniques, we set out to improve Twitter NER performance when given a small set of annotated training tweets. To levera...
متن کاملA Preliminary Evaluation of Word Representations for Named-Entity Recognition
We use different word representations as word features for a named-entity recognition (NER) system with a linear model. This work is part of a larger empirical survey, evaluating different word representations on different NLP tasks. We evaluate Brown clusters, Collobert and Weston (2008) embeddings, and HLBL (Mnih & Hinton, 2009) embeddings of words. All three representations improve accuracy ...

Unsupervised features based on word representations such as word embeddings and word collocations have shown to significantly improve supervised NER for English. In this work we investigate whether such unsupervised features can also boost supervised NER in Spanish. To do so, we use word representations and collocations as additional features in a linear chain Conditional Random Field (CRF) cla...
