Style Transfer as Data Augmentation: A Case Study on Named Entity Recognition

1 code implementation14 Oct 2022 Shuguang Chen, Leonardo Neves, Thamar Solorio

In this work, we take the named entity recognition task in the English language as a case study and explore style transfer as a data augmentation method to increase the size and diversity of training data in low-resource scenarios.

Data Augmentation for Graph Neural Networks

2 code implementations11 Jun 2020 Tong Zhao, Yozen Liu, Leonardo Neves, Oliver Woodford, Meng Jiang, Neil Shah

Our work shows that neural edge predictors can effectively encode class-homophilic structure to promote intra-class edges and demote inter-class edges in given graph structure, and our main contribution introduces the GAug graph data augmentation framework, which leverages these insights to improve performance in GNN-based node classification via edge prediction.

Learning from Explanations with Neural Execution Tree

1 code implementation ICLR 2020 Ziqi Wang, Yujia Qin, Wenxuan Zhou, Jun Yan, Qinyuan Ye, Leonardo Neves, Zhiyuan Liu, Xiang Ren

While deep neural networks have achieved impressive performance on a range of NLP tasks, these data-hungry models heavily rely on labeled data, which restricts their applications in scenarios where data annotation is expensive.

NERO: A Neural Rule Grounding Framework for Label-Efficient Relation Extraction

2 code implementations5 Sep 2019 Wenxuan Zhou, Hongtao Lin, Bill Yuchen Lin, Ziqi Wang, Junyi Du, Leonardo Neves, Xiang Ren

The soft matching module learns to match rules with semantically similar sentences such that raw corpora can be automatically labeled and leveraged by the RE module (in a much better coverage) as augmented supervision, in addition to the exactly matched sentences.

Train One Get One Free: Partially Supervised Neural Network for Bug Report Duplicate Detection and Clustering

no code implementations NAACL 2019 Lahari Poddar, Leonardo Neves, William Brendel, Luis Marujo, Sergey Tulyakov, Pradeep Karuturi

Leveraging the assumption that learning the topic of a bug is a sub-task for detecting duplicates, we design a loss function that can jointly perform both tasks but needs supervision for only duplicate classification, achieving topic clustering in an unsupervised fashion.

Visual Features for Context-Aware Speech Recognition

no code implementations1 Dec 2017 Abhinav Gupta, Yajie Miao, Leonardo Neves, Florian Metze

We are working on a corpus of "how-to" videos from the web, and the idea is that an object that can be seen ("car"), or a scene that is being detected ("kitchen") can be used to condition both models on the "context" of the recording, thereby reducing perplexity and improving transcription.
