[Adapt] [Seminar] Knowledge Base Question Answering via Encoding of Complex Query Structures

[zhiyi Luo]

Dear Adapters,

I will give the second half of the seminar, talking about our work "ExtRA:
Extracting Prominent Review Aspects from Customer Feedback" which is
accepted by EMNLP 2018 as a long paper. In this paper, we propose a
framework, ExtRA, for extracting the most prominent aspects of a given
product type from textual reviews. ExtRA extracts the aspect candidates
from text reviews based on a data-driven approach, builds the aspect
taxonomy by leveraging WordNet, then ranks the aspect candidates using the
taxonomy, finally generates the expected prominent aspects for the product.
Extensive experiments show that ExtRA is effective and achieves the
state-of-the-art performance on a dataset consisting of different product
types.

Best,
Zhiyi
