Horror scene detection is a research problem that has much practical use. The supervised method requires the training data to be labeled manually, which can be tedious and onerous. In this paper, a more challenging setting of the problems without complete information on data labels is investigated. In particular, as the horror scene is characterized by multiple features, this problem is formula...

Multiple instance learning (MIL) is a variation of supervised learning where a single class label is assigned to a bag of instances. In this paper, we state the MIL problem as learning the Bernoulli distribution of the bag label where the bag label probability is fully parameterized by neural networks. Furthermore, we propose a neural network-based permutation-invariant aggregation operator tha...

Extracting semantic roles is one of the major steps in representing text meaning. It refers to finding the semantic relations between a predicate and syntactic constituents in a sentence. In this paper we present a semantic role labeling system for Persian, using memory-based learning model and standard features. We show that good semantic parsing results can be achieved with a small 1300-sente...
