Networks
Abstract:This paper reports the results of several experiments conducted on automatic text tagging using neural networks. Error backpropagation networks were tested to see how effective they would be at correctly predicting the syntactic and semantic classification ("tag") of a word in a sentence, given some or no contextual information. The following contexts were examined: (1) the ending (last three letters) of the word alone, and (2) an encoded representation of the word, preceded by the representations of the three previous words in the sentence. Although each study suffered from some interesting problems with data representation, the results seemed promising and suggest that further investigation is warranted.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
