16 Apr 2020 | Abstract: | Training neural models for named entity recognition (NER) in a new domain
often requires additional human annotations (e.g., tens of thousands of labeled
instances) that are usually expensive and time-consuming to collect. Thus, a
crucial research question is how to obtain supervision in a cost-effective way.
In this paper, we introduce "entity triggers", an effective proxy of human
explanations for facilitating label-efficient learning of NER models. An entity
trigger is defined as a group of words in a sentence that helps to explain why
humans would recognize an entity in the sentence.
We crowd-sourced 14k entity triggers for two well-studied NER datasets. Our
proposed model, named Trigger Matching Network, jointly learns trigger
representations and soft matching module with self-attention such that can
generalize to unseen sentences easily for tagging. Experiments show that the
framework is significantly more cost-effective such that using 20% of the
trigger-annotated sentences can result in a comparable performance of
conventional supervised approaches using 70% training data. We publicly release
the collected entity triggers and our code. | Source: | arXiv, 2004.7493 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
