However, quoting other texts, particularly Shakespeare, became quite common after that. Our work develops automatic approaches to identify that trend. Initial work focuses on identifying exact and modified sections of texts taken from works of Shakespeare in novels spanning the eighteenth century. We then introduce a novel approach to identifying modified quotes by adapting the Edit Distance metric, which is character based, to a word based approach.

In addition, the Thai script does not use white spaces to delimit the boundaries between words, which adds more complexity when building sequence to sequence models. In this work, we explore how to augment a set of English–Thai parallel data by replicating sentence-pairs with different word segmentation methods on Thai, as training data for NMT model training. Using different merge operations of Byte Pair Encoding, different segmentations of Thai sentences can be obtained. The experiments show that combining these datasets, performance is improved for NMT models trained with a dataset that has been split using a supervised splitting tool.

  • Exploring Sentence Vector Spaces Through Automatic Summarization
    Under review as a conference paper at ICLR 2018 EXPLORING SENTENCE VECTOR SPACES THROUGH AUTOMATIC SUMMARIZATION Anonymous authors Paper under double-blind review ABSTRACT Vector semantics, especially sentence vectors, have recently been used success- fully in many areas of natural language processing. However, relatively little work has explored the internal structure and properties of spaces of sentence vectors. In this paper, we will explore the properties of sentence vectors by studying a par- ticular real-world application: Automatic Summarization. In particular, we show that cosine similarity between sentence vectors and document vectors is strongly correlated with sentence importance and that vector semantics can identify and correct gaps between the sentences chosen so far and the document. In addition, we identify specific dimensions which are linked to effective summaries. To our knowledge, this is the first time specific dimensions of sentence embeddings have been connected to sentence properties. We also compare the features of differ- ent methods of sentence embeddings. Many of these insights have applications in uses of sentence embeddings far beyond summarization. 1 INTRODUCTION Vector semantics have been growing in popularity for many other natural language processing appli- cations. Vector semantics attempt to represent words as vectors in a high-dimensional space, where vectors which are close to each other have similar meanings. Various models of vector semantics have been proposed, such as LSA (Landauer & Dumais, 1997), word2vec (Mikolov et al., 2013), and GLOVE(Pennington et al., 2014), and these models have proved to be successful in other natural language processing applications. While these models work well for individual words, producing equivalent vectors for sentences or documents has proven to be more difficult.

  • A Clustering-Based Algorithm for Automatic Document Separation
    A Clustering-Based Algorithm for Automatic Document Separation Kevyn Collins-Thompson Radoslav Nickolov School of Computer Science Microsoft Corporation Carnegie Mellon University 1 Microsoft Way 5000 Forbes Avenue Redmond, WA USA Pittsburgh, PA USA [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT For text, audio, video, and still images, a number of projects have addressed the problem of estimating inter-object similarity and the related problem of finding transition, or ‘segmentation’ points in a stream of objects of the same media type. There has been relatively little work in this area for document images, which are typically text-intensive and contain a mixture of layout, text-based, and image features. Beyond simple partitioning, the problem of clustering related page images is also important, especially for information retrieval problems such as document image searching and browsing. Motivated by this, we describe a model for estimating inter-page similarity in ordered collections of document images, based on a combination of text and layout features. The features are used as input to a discriminative classifier, whose output is used in a constrained clustering criterion. We do a task-based evaluation of our method by applying it the problem of automatic document separation during batch scanning. Using layout and page numbering features, our algorithm achieved a separation accuracy of 95.6% on the test collection. Keywords Document Separation, Image Similarity, Image Classification, Optical Character Recognition contiguous set of pages, but be scattered into several 1.

  • An Incremental Text Segmentation by Clustering Cohesion
    An Incremental Text Segmentation by Clustering Cohesion Raúl Abella Pérez and José Eladio Medina Pagola Advanced Technologies Application Centre (CENATAV), 7a #21812 e/ 218 y 222, Rpto. Siboney, Playa, C.P. 12200, Ciudad de la Habana, Cuba {rabella, jmedina} @cenatav.co.cu Abstract. This paper describes a new method, called IClustSeg, for linear text segmentation by topic using an incremental overlapped clustering algorithm. Incremental algorithms are able to process new objects as they are added to the collection and, according to the changes, to update the results using previous information. In our approach, we maintain a structure to get an incremental overlapped clustering. The results of the clustering algorithm, when processing a stream, are used any time text segmentation is required, using the clustering cohesion as the criteria for segmenting by topic. We compare our proposal against the best known methods, outperforming significantly these algorithms. 1 Introduction Topic segmentation intends to identify the boundaries in a document with goal of capturing the latent topical structure. The automatic detection of appropriate subtopic boundaries in a document is a very useful task in text processing. For example, in information retrieval and in passages retrieval, to return documents, segments or passages closer to the user’s queries. Another application of topic segmentation is in summarization, where it can be used to select segments of texts containing the main ideas for the summary requested [6]. Many text segmentation methods by topics have been proposed recently. Usually, they obtain linear segmentations, where the output is a document divided into sequences of adjacent segments [7], [9].

  • A Text Denormalization Algorithm Producing Training Data for Text Segmentation
    A Text Denormalization Algorithm Producing Training Data for Text Segmentation Kilian Evang Valerio Basile University of Groningen University of Groningen [email protected] [email protected] Johan Bos University of Groningen [email protected] As a first step of processing, text often has to be split into sentences and tokens. We call this process segmentation. It is often desirable to replace rule-based segmentation tools with statistical ones that can learn from examples provided by human annotators who fix the machine's mistakes. Such a statistical segmentation system is presented in Evang et al. (2013). As training data, the system requires the original raw text as well as information about the boundaries between tokens and sentences within this raw text. Although raw as well as segmented versions of text corpora are available for many languages, this required information is often not trivial to obtain because the segmented version differs from the raw one also in other respects. For example, punctuation marks and diacritics have been normalized to canonical forms by human annotators or by rule-based segmentation and normalization tools. This is the case with e.g. the Penn Treebank, the Dutch Twente News Corpus and the Italian PAISA` corpus. This problem of missing alignment between raw and segmented text is also noted by Dridan and Oepen (2012). We present a heuristic algorithm that recovers the alignment and thereby produces standoff annotations marking token and sentence boundaries in the raw test. The algorithm is based on the Levenshtein algorithm and is general in that it does not assume any language-specific normalization conventions.

Although the individual techniques are not new, assembling and applying them to generate multi-document biographies is new. Our system was evaluated in DUC2004. It is among the top performers in task 5–short summaries focused by person questions. 1 Introduction Automatic text summarization is one form of information management.
