Popis: | Named Entity Recognition and Typing (NER/NET) is a challenging task, especially with long-tail entities such as the ones found in scientific publications. These entities (e.g. “WebKB”, “StatSnowball”) are rare, often relevant only in specific knowledge domains, yet important for retrieval and exploration purposes. State-of-the-art NER approaches employ supervised machine learning models, trained on expensive typelabeled data laboriously produced by human annotators. A common workaround is the generation of labeled training data from knowledge bases; this approach is not suitable for long-tail entity types that are, by definition, scarcely represented in KBs.This paper presents an iterative approach for training NER and NETclassifiers in scientific publications that relies on minimal human input,namely a small seed set of instances for the targeted entity type. Weintroduce different strategies for training data extraction, semantic expansion, and result entity filtering.We evaluate our approach on scientificpublications, focusing on the long-tail entities types Datasets, Methods incomputer science publications, and Proteins in biomedical publications. |
