Multi-input Recurrent Independent Mechanisms for leveraging knowledge sources: Case studies on sentiment analysis and health text mining

no code implementations NAACL (DeeLIO) 2021 Parsa Bagherzadeh, Sabine Bergler

This paper presents a way to inject and leverage existing knowledge from external sources in a Deep Learning environment, extending the recently proposed Recurrent Independent Mechnisms (RIMs) architecture, which comprises a set of interacting yet independent modules.

CLaC at SMM4H 2020: Birth Defect Mention Detection

no code implementations SMM4H (COLING) 2020 Parsa Bagherzadeh, Sabine Bergler

For the detection of personal tweets, where a parent speaks of a child’s birth defect, CLaC combines ELMo word embeddings and gazetteer lists from external resources with a GCNN (for encoding dependencies), in a multi layer, transformer inspired architecture.

Competing Independent Modules for Knowledge Integration and Optimization

no code implementations Findings (EMNLP) 2021 Parsa Bagherzadeh, Sabine Bergler

This paper presents a neural framework of untied independent modules, used here for integrating off the shelf knowledge sources such as language models, lexica, POS information, and dependency relations.

CLaC-BP at SemEval-2021 Task 8: SciBERT Plus Rules for MeasEval

no code implementations SEMEVAL 2021 Benjamin Therien, Parsa Bagherzadeh, Sabine Bergler

We analyze ablation experiments and demonstrate how the system components, namely tokenizer, unit identifier, modifier classifier, and language model, affect the overall score.
