8 Information Extraction Named entity recognition Named entity disambiguation Relation extraction 8

9 Knowledge Bases (Open Linked Data) (Bob_Dylan, compose, Like_a_rolling_stone ) (The_Dark_Night, directedby, Christopher_Nolan) Entity Graph OpenIE (Ollie, Reverb) Economic Graph 9

10 Knowledge Bases (Open Linked Data) YAGO #classes: 350,000 #entities: 10 million #facts: 120 million #language: 10 Entity Graph OpenIE (Ollie, Reverb) Economic Graph 10

11 Knowledge Bases (Open Linked Data) DBpedia #classes: 735 #entities: 38.3 million #triples: 6.9 billion #languages: 128 Entity Graph OpenIE (Ollie, Reverb) Economic Graph 11

12 Knowledge Bases (Open Linked Data) Freebase #entities: 50 million #facts: 3 billion #languages: almost 70 Entity Graph OpenIE (Ollie, Reverb) Economic Graph 12

13 Construct YAGO from (Semi) Structured Data 13

14 IE Challenge: ambiguity of Natural Language I made her duck. i. I cooked waterfowl for her. ii. I cooked waterfowl belonging her. iii. I created the duck she owns. iv. I caused her to quickly lower her head or body. v. I waved my magic wand and turned her into a waterfowl. 14

15 Named Entity Recognition TASK: ORG Research at Stanford led to a search engine company, founded by Page and Brin. PER PER Machine Learning Problem: O O ORG O O O O O O O O PER O PER O Research at Stanford led to search engine company, founded by Page and Brin. 15

16 Learning and Prediction has labels train models Sentences Feature Extraction Labeled Sentences no labels prediction 16

17 Feature Extraction Use features to represent each word. w -2 Research w -2 to w -1 at w -1 a Features of Stanford : w 0 w +1 Stanford led Features of Search : w 0 w +1 search engine w +2 to w +2 company POS noun POS noun capitalized? true capitalized? false Vectorise feature representations. w -2 = research capitalized w 0 = stanford w 0 = search

18 Standard Model: Conditional Random Fields Assigns local score to different (word, label) pairs. Joint inference to find best label sequences. CRF: p(y x) = exp P T t=1 Pi if i (y t 1,y t,x t ) Z Stanford NER [1]: 86% Best system [8]: 89% 18

19 Named Entity Disambiguation TASK: ORG Research at Stanford led to a search engine company, founded by Page and Brin. PER PER Larry Page Stanford Univeristy Sergey Brin 19

21 First Stage 21

22 Second Stage AIDA-light [2]: 84.8% DBPepdia spotlight: 75% 22

23 Relation Extraction Relation mention extraction. ORG: Stanford_University Research at Stanford led to a search engine company, founded by Page and Brin.? PER: Larry_Page PER: Sergey_Brin Expand knowledge bases. Larry Page? Stanford Univeristy The Dark Night? Christopher Nolan 23

24 Relation Mention Extraction Multi-class classification. Example features of a pair of entity mentions [3]. Research at Stanford led to a search engine company, founded by Page and Brin.? words between (Stanford, Page) Named entity types Number of mentions between (Stanford, Page) led, to, a, search, engine, company, founded, by (ORG, PER) 0 F-Measure on ACE: 71.2% [3] 24

25 Expand Knowledge Base Multi-instance, multi-label [4,5]. Distant supervision. Freebase relation-level label Larry Page Sergey Brin mention-level label? mention-level label? Research at Stanford led to a search engine company, founded by Page and Brin. Larry Page and Sergey Brin explained why they just created Alphabet. MAP [3] : 56% MAP [4] : 66% 25

26 Open Information Extraction Extract triples of any relations from the web [6]. It was exactly 50 years ago today that Bob Dylan walked into Studio A at Columbia Records in New York and recorded "Like a Rolling Stone. ( Bob Dylan, record, Like a rolling stone ) Optional: link triples to knowledge bases. ( Bob Dylan, record, Like a rolling stone ) The_Dark_Night record Like_a_Rolling _Stone F1 [6] : 19.6% F1 [9] : 28.3% 26

27 Harvest Domain-Specific Knowledge Deep learning. Learn cross-domain features. minimize training data. Transfer learning. source domain target domain newswire nurse handovers 27

28 Word Representation One-hot representation. stanford [ 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ] university [ 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ] oxford [ 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ] conference [ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1 ] talk [ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0 ] Distributed representation. stanford university oxford = [0.01, 0.3, -0.5, 0.6] conference talk 28

29 Distributed Representation 29

30 Apply Distributed Representations for NER Represent words based on positions rather than IDs. 2 nd word to the left first word to the left current word first word to the right 2 nd word to the right label Feature Matrix compare o stanford UNI university UNI and o oxford UNI 30

31 Results of Named Entity Recognition [7] Reduce the amount of training data. Tiny differences between word embeddings. 31

32 NER for Novel Named Entity Types Goals: Minimize labeled training data. Leverage existing resources: Labeled corpora. Unlabeled text. Existing knowledge bases. source domain target domain person doctor patient location country city hotel orgnization corporation 32

33 Experimental Results on I2B2 33

34 Learn Text Representations for Relations Unsupervised pre-training. Distant supervision. Freebase co-founders Larry Page Sergey Brin Inferred mention-level label Research at Stanford led to a search engine company, founded by Page and Brin. Inferred mention-level label Larry Page and Sergey Brin explained why they just created Alphabet. 34
