Abstract With the success of new speech-based human-computer interfaces, there is a great need for effective and friendly dialogue agents that can communicate with people naturally and continuously. However, the lack of personality and consistency is one of critical problems in neural dialogue systems. In this paper, we aim to generate consistent response with fixed profile and background information for building a realistic dialogue system. Based on the encoder-decoder model, we propose a retrieval mechanism to deliver natural and fluent response with proper information from a profile database. Moreover, in order to improve the efficiency of training the dataset related to… More >

Abstract Palynological studies contribute to understanding the taxonomy, phylogeny and ecology of the Asteraceae and other families. In this study, pollen morphology and ultrastructure of the exine of Senecio bergii Hieron. were studied using light, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The pollen of this species is prolate-spheroidal, it has a Senecioid pattern on the exine and an apertural system composed of three apertures (ecto-, meso- and endoapertures). This pollen type is defined as tricolpororate due to the triple apertural system. This is the first description of the ultrastructure of the apertural system of the pollen of Argentine species of Senecio. The… More >

Abstract On Twitter, people often use hashtags to mark the subject of a tweet. Tweets have specific themes or content that are easy for people to manage. With the increase in the number of tweets, how to automatically recommend hashtags for tweets has received wide attention. The previous hashtag recommendation methods were to convert the task into a multi-class classification problem. However, these methods can only recommend hashtags that appeared in historical information, and cannot recommend the new ones. In this work, we extend the self-attention mechanism to turn the hashtag recommendation task into a sequence labeling task. To train and… More >

Abstract Keyphrase greatly provides summarized and valuable information. This information can help us not only understand text semantics, but also organize and retrieve text content effectively. The task of automatically generating it has received considerable attention in recent decades. From the previous studies, we can see many workable solutions for obtaining keyphrases. One method is to divide the content to be summarized into multiple blocks of text, then we rank and select the most important content. The disadvantage of this method is that it cannot identify keyphrase that does not include in the text, let alone get the real semantic meaning… More >

Abstract Detecting the underground disease is very crucial for the roadbed health monitoring and maintenance of transport facilities, since it is very closely related to the structural health and reliability with the rapid development of road traffic. Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is widely used to detect road and underground diseases. However, it is still a challenging task due to data access anywhere, transmission security and data processing on cloud. Cloud computing can provide scalable and powerful technologies for large-scale storage, processing and dissemination of GPR data. Combined with cloud computing and radar detection technology, it is possible to locate the underground… More >

Abstract Relation extraction is an important task in NLP community. However, some models often fail in capturing Long-distance dependence on semantics, and the interaction between semantics of two entities is ignored. In this paper, we propose a novel neural network model for semantic relation classification called joint self-attention bi-LSTM (SA-Bi-LSTM) to model the internal structure of the sentence to obtain the importance of each word of the sentence without relying on additional information, and capture Long-distance dependence on semantics. We conduct experiments using the SemEval-2010 Task 8 dataset. Extensive experiments and the results demonstrated that the proposed method is effective against… More >

Abstract Images are complex multimedia data which contain rich semantic information. Most of current image description generator algorithms only generate plain description, with the lack of distinction between primary and secondary object, leading to insufficient high-level semantic and accuracy under public evaluation criteria. The major issue is the lack of effective network on high-level semantic sentences generation, which contains detailed description for motion and state of the principal object. To address the issue, this paper proposes the Attention-based Feedback Long Short-Term Memory Network (AFLN). Based on existing codec framework, there are two independent sub tasks in our method: attention-based feedback LSTM… More >

Abstract Recently dependency information has been used in different ways to improve neural machine translation. For example, add dependency labels to the hidden states of source words. Or the contiguous information of a source word would be found according to the dependency tree and then be learned independently and be added into Neural Machine Translation (NMT) model as a unit in various ways. However, these works are all limited to the use of dependency information to enrich the hidden states of source words. Since many works in Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) and NMT have proven the validity and potential of using… More >

Abstract At present, End-to-End trainable Memory Networks (MemN2N) has proven to be promising in many deep learning fields, especially on simple natural language-based reasoning question and answer (QA) tasks. However, when solving some subtasks such as basic induction, path finding or time reasoning tasks, it remains challenging because of limited ability to learn useful information between memory and query. In this paper, we propose a novel gated linear units (GLU) and local-attention based end-to-end memory networks (MemN2N-GL) motivated by the success of attention mechanism theory in the field of neural machine translation, it shows an improved possibility to develop the ability… More >

Abstract Gait recognition is a complicated task due to the existence of co-factors like carrying conditions, clothing, viewpoints, and surfaces which change the appearance of gait more or less. Among those co-factors, clothing analysis is the most challenging one in the area. Conventional methods which are proposed for clothing invariant gait recognition show the body parts and the underlying relationships from them are important for gait recognition. Fortunately, attention mechanism shows dramatic performance for highlighting discriminative regions. Meanwhile, latent semantic analysis is known for the ability of capturing latent semantic variables to represent the underlying attributes and capturing the relationships from… More >
