    • Conclusion

• information extraction
  • Given this: “Brasilia, the Brazilian capital, was founded in 1960.”
  • Obtain this:
    • capital(Brazil, Brasilia)
    • founded(Brasilia, 1960)
  • Main goal: turn text into structured data
• applications
  • Stock analysis
    • Gather information from news and social media
    • Summarise texts into a structured format
    • Decide whether to buy/sell at current stock price
  • Medical research
    • Obtain information from articles about diseases and treatments
    • Decide which treatment to apply for new patient
• how
  • Two steps:
    • Named Entity Recognition (NER): find out entities such as “Brasilia” and “1960”
    • Relation Extraction: use context to find the relation between “Brasilia” and “1960” (“founded”)
• machine learning in IE
  • Named Entity Recognition (NER): sequence models such as RNNs, HMMs or CRFs.
  • Relation Extraction: mostly classifiers, either binary or multi-class.
  • This lecture: how to frame these two tasks in order to apply sequence labellers and classifiers.

Named Entity Recognition

• typical entity tags (types of tags to use depend on domains)
  • PER(people): people, characters
  • ORG(organisation): companies, sports teams
  • LOC(natural location): regions, mountains, seas
  • GPE(man-made locations): countries, states, provinces (in some tagset this is labelled as LOC)
  • FAC(facility): bridges, buildings, airports
  • VEH(vehcle): planes, trains, cars
  • Tag-set is application-dependent: some domains deal with specific entities e.g. proteins and genes
• NER as sequnce labelling

  • NE tags can be ambiguous:

    • “Washington” can be a person, location or political entity

  • Similar problem when doing POS tagging

    • possible solution: Incorporate(包含) context

  • Can we use a sequence tagger for this (e.g. HMM)?

    • No, as entities can span multiple tokens(multiple words)
    • Solution: modify the tag set

  • IO(inside,outside) tagging

    • [ORG American Airlines], a unit of [ORG AMR Corp.], immediately matched the move, spokesman [PER Tim Wagner] said.
    • ‘I-ORG’ represents a token that is inside an entity (ORG in this case).
    • All tokens which are not entities get the ‘O’ token (for outside).
    • Cannot differentiate between:
      • a single entity with multiple tokens
      • multiple entities with single tokens

  • IOB(beginning) tagging

    • [ORG American Airlines], a unit of [ORG AMR Corp.], immediately matched the move, spokesman [PER Tim Wagner] said.

    • B-ORG represents the beginning of an ORG entity.

    • If the entity has more than one token, subsequent tags are represented as I-ORG.

    • example: annotate the following sentence with NER tags(IOB)

      • Steves Jobs founded Apple Inc. in 1976, Tageset: PER, ORG, LOC, TIME
        • [B-PER Steves] [I-PER Jobs] [O founded] [B-ORG Apple] [I-ORG Inc.] [O in] [B-Time 1976]

  • NER as sequence labelling

    • Given such tagging scheme, we can train any sequence labelling model
    • In theory, HMMs can be used but discriminative models such as CRFs are preferred (HMMs cannot incorperate new features)

  • NER

    • features

      • Example: L’Occitane
      • Prefix/suffix:
        • L / L’ / L’O / L’Oc / …
        • e / ne / ane / tane / …
      • Word shape:
        • X’Xxxxxxxx / X’Xx
        • XXXX-XX-XX (date!)
      • POS tags / syntactic chunks: many entities are nouns or noun phrases.
      • Presence in a gazeteer: lists of entities, such as place names, people’s names and surnames, etc.

    • classifier

    • deep learning for NER

      • State of the art approach uses LSTMs with character and word embeddings (Lample et al. 2016)

Relation Extraction

• relation extraction

  • [ORG American Airlines], a unit of [ORG AMR Corp.], immediately matched the move, spokesman [PER Tim Wagner] said.
  • Traditionally framed as triple(a relation and two entities) extraction:
    • unit(American Airlines, AMR Corp.)
    • spokesman(Tim Wagner, American Airlines)
  • Key question: do we know all the possible relations?
    • map relations to a closed set of relations
    • unit(American Airlines, AMR Corp.) → subsidiary
    • spokesman(Tim Wagner, American Airlines) → employment

• methods

  • If we have access to a fixed relation database:

    • Rule-based
    • Supervised
    • Semi-supervised
    • Distant supervision

  • If no restrictions on relations:

    • Unsupervised
    • Sometimes referred as “OpenIE”

  • rule-based relation extraction

    • “Agar is a substance prepared from a mixture of red algae such as Gelidium, for laboratory or industrial use.”
    • identify linguitics patterns in sentence
    • [NP red algae] such as [NP Gelidium]
    • NP0 such as NP1 → hyponym(NP1, NP0)
    • hyponym(Gelidium, red algae)
    • Lexico-syntactic patterns: high precision, low recall(unlikely to recover all patterns, so many linguistic patterns!), manual effort required
    • more rules

  • supervised relation extraction

    • Assume a corpus with annotated relations
    • Two steps (if only one step, class imbalance problem: most entities have no relations!)
      • First, find if an entity pair is related or not (binary classification)
        • For each sentence, gather all possible entity pairs
        • Annotated pairs are considered positive examples
        • Non-annotated pairs are taken as negative examples
      • Second, for pairs predicted as positive, use a multiclass classifier (e.g. SVM) to obtain the relation
      • example
        • [ORG American Airlines], a unit of [ORG AMR Corp.], immediately matched the move, spokesman [PER Tim Wagner] said.
        • First:
          • (American Airlines, AMR Corp.) $\to$ positive
          • (American Airlines, Tim Wagner) $\to$ positive
          • (AMR Corp., Tim Wagner) $\to$ negative
        • Second:
          • (American Airlines, AMR Corp.) $\to$ subsidiary
          • (American Airlines, Tim Wagner) $\to$ employment
    • features
      • [ORG American Airlines], a unit of [ORG AMR Corp.], immediately matched the move, spokesman [PER Tim Wagner] said.
      • (American Airlines, Tim Wagner) $\to$ employment

  • semi-supervised relation extraction

    • Annotated corpora is very expensive to create

    • Use seed tuples to bootstrap a classifier (use seed to find more training data)

    • steps:

      1. Given seed tuple: hub(Ryanair, Charleroi)
      2. Find sentences containing terms in seed tuples
         • Budget airline Ryanair, which uses Charleroi as a hub, scrapped all weekend flights out of the airport
      3. Extract general patterns
         • [ORG], which uses [LOC] as a hub
      4. Find new tuples with these patterns
         • hub(Jetstar, Avalon)
      5. Add these new tuples to existing tuples and repeat step 2

    • issues

      • Extracted tuples deviate from original relation over time
        • semantic drift(deviate from original relation)
          • Pattern: [NP] has a {NP}* hub at [LOC]
          • Sydney has a ferry hub at Circular Quay
            • hub(Sydney, Circular Quay)
          • More erroneous(错误的) patterns extracted from this tuple…
          • Should only accept patterns with high confidences
      • Difficult to evaluate(no labels for new extracted tuples)
      • Extracted general patterns tend to be very noisy

  • distant supervision

    • Semi-supervised methods assume the existence of seed tuples to mine new tuples

    • Can we mine new tuples directly?

    • Distant supervision obtain new tuples from a range of sources:

      • DBpedia
      • Freebase

    • Generate massive training sets, enabling the use of richer features, and no risk of semantic drift

  • unsupervised relation extraction

    • No fixed or closed set of relations
    • Relations are sub-sentences; usually has a verb
    • “United has a hub in Chicago, which is the headquarters of United Continental Holdings.”
      • “has a hub in”(United, Chicago)
      • “is the headquarters of”(Chicago, United Continental Holdings)
    • Main problem: so many relation forms! mapping relations into canonical forms

  • evaluation

    • NER: F1-measure at the entity level.
    • Relation Extraction with known relation set: F1-measure
    • Relation Extraction with unknown relations: much harder to evaluate
      • Usually need some human evaluation
      • Massive datasets used in these settings are impractical to evaluate manually (use samples)
      • Can only obtain (approximate) precision, not recall(too many possible relations!)

Other IE Tasks

• temporal expression extraction

  “[TIME July 2, 2007]: A fare increase initiated [TIME last week] by UAL Corp’s United Airlines was matched by competitors over [TIME the weekend], marking the second successful fare increase in [TIME two weeks].”

  • Anchoring: when is “last week”?
    • “last week” → 2007−W26
  • Normalisation: mapping expressions to canonical forms.
    • July 2, 2007 → 2007-07-02
  • Mostly rule-based approaches

• event extraction

  • “American Airlines, a unit of AMR Corp., immediately [EVENT matched] [EVENT the move], spokesman Tim Wagner [EVENT said].”
  • Very similar to NER but different tags, including annotation and learning methods.
  • Event ordering: detect how a set of events happened in a timeline.
    • Involves both event extraction and temporal expression extraction.

Conclusion

• Information Extraction is a vast field with many different tasks and applications
  • Named Entity Recognition
  • Relation Extraction
  • Event Extraction
• Machine learning methods involve classifiers and sequence labelling models.
