As such, much of the research and development in NLP in the last two decades has been in finding and optimizing solutions to this problem, to feature selection in NLP effectively. This paper looks at the development of these various techniques, leveraging a variety of statistical methods which rest on linguistic theories that were advanced in the middle of the last century, namely the distributional hypothesis which suggests that words that are found in similar contexts generally have similar meanings. In this survey paper we look at the development of some of the most popular of these techniques from a mathematical as well as data structure perspective, from Latent Semantic Analysis to Vector Space Models to their more modern variants which are typically referred to as word embeddings. In this review of algoriths such as Word2Vec, GloVe, ELMo and BERT, we explore the idea of semantic spaces more generally beyond applicability to NLP.展开更多

Urdu is a uniquely crafted language,characterized by a script that amalgamates elements from diverse languages, including Arabic, Parsi, Pashtu,Turkish, Punjabi, Saraiki, and more. As Urdu literature, characterized by distinct character sets and linguisticfeatures, presents an additional hurdle due to the lack of accessible datasets, rendering sentiment analysis aformidable undertaking. The limited availability of resources has fueled increased interest among researchers,prompting a deeper exploration into Urdu sentiment analysis. This research is dedicated to Urdu languagesentiment analysis, employing sophisticated deep learning models on an extensive dataset categorized into fivelabels: Positive, Negative, Neutral, Mixed, and Ambiguous. The primary objective is to discern sentiments andemotions within the Urdu language, despite the absence of well-curated datasets. To tackle this challenge, theinitial step involves the creation of a comprehensive Urdu dataset by aggregating data from various sources such asnewspapers, articles, and socialmedia comments. Subsequent to this data collection, a thorough process of cleaningand preprocessing is implemented to ensure the quality of the data. The study leverages two well-known deeplearningmodels, namely Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), for bothtraining and evaluating sentiment analysis performance. Additionally, the study explores hyperparameter tuning tooptimize the models’ efficacy. Evaluation metrics such as precision, recall, and the F1-score are employed to assessthe effectiveness of the models. The research findings reveal that RNN surpasses CNN in Urdu sentiment analysis,gaining a significantly higher accuracy rate of 91%. This result accentuates the exceptional performance of RNN,solidifying its status as a compelling option for conducting sentiment analysis tasks in the Urdu language.展开更多

Methods The first step was to build a text mining and analysis environment based on Python language, and built a corpus based on the core chapters of SESD. The second step was to digitalize the corpus. The main steps included word segmentation, information cleaning and merging, document-entry matrix, dictionary compilation and information conversion. The third step was to mine and display the internal information of SESD corpus by means of word cloud, keyword extraction and visualization. Results NLP played a positive role in computer recognition and comprehension of SESD. Different chapters had different keywords and weights. Deficiency syndrome elements were an important component of SESD, such as "Qi deficiency""Yang deficiency" and "Yin deficiency". The important syndrome elements of substantiality included "Blood stasis""Qi stagnation", etc. Core syndrome elements were closely related. Conclusions Syndrome differentiation and treatment was the core of SESD. Using NLP to excavate syndromes differentiation could help reveal the internal relationship between syndromes differentiation and provide basis for artificial intelligence to learn syndromes differentiation.展开更多

文摘Sentiment analysis(SA)is the procedure of recognizing the emotions related to the data that exist in social networking.The existence of sarcasm in tex-tual data is a major challenge in the efficiency of the SA.Earlier works on sarcasm detection on text utilize lexical as well as pragmatic cues namely interjection,punctuations,and sentiment shift that are vital indicators of sarcasm.With the advent of deep-learning,recent works,leveraging neural networks in learning lexical and contextual features,removing the need for handcrafted feature.In this aspect,this study designs a deep learning with natural language processing enabled SA(DLNLP-SA)technique for sarcasm classification.The proposed DLNLP-SA technique aims to detect and classify the occurrence of sarcasm in the input data.Besides,the DLNLP-SA technique holds various sub-processes namely preprocessing,feature vector conversion,and classification.Initially,the pre-processing is performed in diverse ways such as single character removal,multi-spaces removal,URL removal,stopword removal,and tokenization.Secondly,the transformation of feature vectors takes place using the N-gram feature vector technique.Finally,mayfly optimization(MFO)with multi-head self-attention based gated recurrent unit(MHSA-GRU)model is employed for the detection and classification of sarcasm.To verify the enhanced outcomes of the DLNLP-SA model,a comprehensive experimental investigation is performed on the News Headlines Dataset from Kaggle Repository and the results signified the supremacy over the existing approaches.
文摘This paper attempts to approach the interface of a robot from the perspective of virtual assistants.Virtual assistants can also be characterized as the mind of a robot,since they manage communication and action with the rest of the world they exist in.Therefore,virtual assistants can also be described as the brain of a robot and they include a Natural Language Processing(NLP)module for conducting communication in their human-robot interface.This work is focused on inquiring and enhancing the capabilities of this module.The problem is that nothing much is revealed about the nature of the human-robot interface of commercial virtual assistants.Therefore,any new attempt of developing such a capability has to start from scratch.Accordingly,to include corresponding capabilities to a developing NLP system of a virtual assistant,a method of systemic semantic modelling is proposed and applied.For this purpose,the paper briefly reviews the evolution of virtual assistants from the first assistant,in the form of a game,to the latest assistant that has significantly elevated their standards.Then there is a reference to the evolution of their services and their continued offerings,as well as future expectations.The paper presents their structure and the technologies used,according to the data provided by the development companies to the public,while an attempt is made to classify virtual assistants,based on their characteristics and capabilities.Consequently,a robotic NLP interface is being developed,based on the communicative power of a proposed systemic conceptual model that may enhance the NLP capabilities of virtual assistants,being tested through a small natural language dictionary in Greek.

文摘Software project outcomes heavily depend on natural language requirements,often causing diverse interpretations and issues like ambiguities and incomplete or faulty requirements.Researchers are exploring machine learning to predict software bugs,but a more precise and general approach is needed.Accurate bug prediction is crucial for software evolution and user training,prompting an investigation into deep and ensemble learning methods.However,these studies are not generalized and efficient when extended to other datasets.Therefore,this paper proposed a hybrid approach combining multiple techniques to explore their effectiveness on bug identification problems.The methods involved feature selection,which is used to reduce the dimensionality and redundancy of features and select only the relevant ones;transfer learning is used to train and test the model on different datasets to analyze how much of the learning is passed to other datasets,and ensemble method is utilized to explore the increase in performance upon combining multiple classifiers in a model.Four National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA)and four Promise datasets are used in the study,showing an increase in the model’s performance by providing better Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve(AUC-ROC)values when different classifiers were combined.It reveals that using an amalgam of techniques such as those used in this study,feature selection,transfer learning,and ensemble methods prove helpful in optimizing the software bug prediction models and providing high-performing,useful end mode.
文摘Sentiment analysis, a crucial task in discerning emotional tones within the text, plays a pivotal role in understandingpublic opinion and user sentiment across diverse languages.While numerous scholars conduct sentiment analysisin widely spoken languages such as English, Chinese, Arabic, Roman Arabic, and more, we come to grapplingwith resource-poor languages like Urdu literature which becomes a challenge. Urdu is a uniquely crafted language,characterized by a script that amalgamates elements from diverse languages, including Arabic, Parsi, Pashtu,Turkish, Punjabi, Saraiki, and more. As Urdu literature, characterized by distinct character sets and linguisticfeatures, presents an additional hurdle due to the lack of accessible datasets, rendering sentiment analysis aformidable undertaking. The limited availability of resources has fueled increased interest among researchers,prompting a deeper exploration into Urdu sentiment analysis. This research is dedicated to Urdu languagesentiment analysis, employing sophisticated deep learning models on an extensive dataset categorized into fivelabels: Positive, Negative, Neutral, Mixed, and Ambiguous. The primary objective is to discern sentiments andemotions within the Urdu language, despite the absence of well-curated datasets. To tackle this challenge, theinitial step involves the creation of a comprehensive Urdu dataset by aggregating data from various sources such asnewspapers, articles, and socialmedia comments. Subsequent to this data collection, a thorough process of cleaningand preprocessing is implemented to ensure the quality of the data. The study leverages two well-known deeplearningmodels, namely Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), for bothtraining and evaluating sentiment analysis performance. Additionally, the study explores hyperparameter tuning tooptimize the models’ efficacy. Evaluation metrics such as precision, recall, and the F1-score are employed to assessthe effectiveness of the models. The research findings reveal that RNN surpasses CNN in Urdu sentiment analysis,gaining a significantly higher accuracy rate of 91%. This result accentuates the exceptional performance of RNN,solidifying its status as a compelling option for conducting sentiment analysis tasks in the Urdu language.

文摘Purpose:This work aims to normalize the NLPCONTRIBUTIONS scheme(henceforward,NLPCONTRIBUTIONGRAPH)to structure,directly from article sentences,the contributions information in Natural Language Processing(NLP)scholarly articles via a two-stage annotation methodology:1)pilot stage-to define the scheme(described in prior work);and 2)adjudication stage-to normalize the graphing model(the focus of this paper).Design/methodology/approach:We re-annotate,a second time,the contributions-pertinent information across 50 prior-annotated NLP scholarly articles in terms of a data pipeline comprising:contribution-centered sentences,phrases,and triple statements.To this end,specifically,care was taken in the adjudication annotation stage to reduce annotation noise while formulating the guidelines for our proposed novel NLP contributions structuring and graphing scheme.Findings:The application of NLPCONTRIBUTIONGRAPH on the 50 articles resulted finally in a dataset of 900 contribution-focused sentences,4,702 contribution-information-centered phrases,and 2,980 surface-structured triples.The intra-annotation agreement between the first and second stages,in terms of F1-score,was 67.92%for sentences,41.82%for phrases,and 22.31%for triple statements indicating that with increased granularity of the information,the annotation decision variance is greater.Research limitations:NLPCONTRIBUTIONGRAPH has limited scope for structuring scholarly contributions compared with STEM(Science,Technology,Engineering,and Medicine)scholarly knowledge at large.Further,the annotation scheme in this work is designed by only an intra-annotator consensus-a single annotator first annotated the data to propose the initial scheme,following which,the same annotator reannotated the data to normalize the annotations in an adjudication stage.However,the expected goal of this work is to achieve a standardized retrospective model of capturing NLP contributions from scholarly articles.This would entail a larger initiative of enlisting multiple annotators to accommodate different worldviews into a“single”set of structures and relationships as the final scheme.Given that the initial scheme is first proposed and the complexity of the annotation task in the realistic timeframe,our intraannotation procedure is well-suited.Nevertheless,the model proposed in this work is presently limited since it does not incorporate multiple annotator worldviews.This is planned as future work to produce a robust model.Practical implications:We demonstrate NLPCONTRIBUTIONGRAPH data integrated into the Open Research Knowledge Graph(ORKG),a next-generation KG-based digital library with intelligent computations enabled over structured scholarly knowledge,as a viable aid to assist researchers in their day-to-day tasks.Originality/value:NLPCONTRIBUTIONGRAPH is a novel scheme to annotate research contributions from NLP articles and integrate them in a knowledge graph,which to the best of our knowledge does not exist in the community.Furthermore,our quantitative evaluations over the two-stage annotation tasks offer insights into task difficulty.

文摘Objective Natural language processing (NLP) was used to excavate and visualize the core content of syndrome element syndrome differentiation (SESD). Methods The first step was to build a text mining and analysis environment based on Python language, and built a corpus based on the core chapters of SESD. The second step was to digitalize the corpus. The main steps included word segmentation, information cleaning and merging, document-entry matrix, dictionary compilation and information conversion. The third step was to mine and display the internal information of SESD corpus by means of word cloud, keyword extraction and visualization. Results NLP played a positive role in computer recognition and comprehension of SESD. Different chapters had different keywords and weights. Deficiency syndrome elements were an important component of SESD, such as "Qi deficiency""Yang deficiency" and "Yin deficiency". The important syndrome elements of substantiality included "Blood stasis""Qi stagnation", etc. Core syndrome elements were closely related. Conclusions Syndrome differentiation and treatment was the core of SESD. Using NLP to excavate syndromes differentiation could help reveal the internal relationship between syndromes differentiation and provide basis for artificial intelligence to learn syndromes differentiation.

文摘Most software systems have different stakeholders with a variety of concerns.The process of collecting requirements from a large number of stakeholders is vital but challenging.We propose an efficient,automatic approach to collecting requirements from different stakeholders’responses to a specific question.We use natural language processing techniques to get the stakeholder response that represents most other stakeholders’responses.This study improves existing practices in three ways:Firstly,it reduces the human effort needed to collect the requirements;secondly,it reduces the time required to carry out this task with a large number of stakeholders;thirdly,it underlines the importance of using of data mining techniques in various software engineering steps.Our approach uses tokenization,stop word removal,and word lemmatization to create a list of frequently accruing words.It then creates a similarity matrix to calculate the score value for each response and selects the answer with the highest score.Our experiments show that using this approach significantly reduces the time and effort needed to collect requirements and does so with a sufficient degree of accuracy.
文摘Student mobility or academic mobility involves students moving between institutions during their post-secondary education,and one of the challenging tasks in this process is to assess the transfer credits to be offered to the incoming student.In general,this process involves domain experts comparing the learning outcomes of the courses,to decide on offering transfer credits to the incoming students.This manual implementation is not only labor-intensive but also influenced by undue bias and administrative complexity.The proposed research article focuses on identifying a model that exploits the advancements in the field of Natural Language Processing(NLP)to effectively automate this process.Given the unique structure,domain specificity,and complexity of learning outcomes(LOs),a need for designing a tailor-made model arises.The proposed model uses a clustering-inspired methodology based on knowledge-based semantic similarity measures to assess the taxonomic similarity of LOs and a transformer-based semantic similarity model to assess the semantic similarity of the LOs.The similarity between LOs is further aggregated to form course to course similarity.Due to the lack of quality benchmark datasets,a new benchmark dataset containing seven course-to-course similarity measures is proposed.Understanding the inherent need for flexibility in the decision-making process the aggregation part of the model offers tunable parameters to accommodate different levels of leniency.While providing an efficient model to assess the similarity between courses with existing resources,this research work also steers future research attempts to apply NLP in the field of articulation in an ideal direction by highlighting the persisting research gaps.
文摘The recent advancements made in World Wide Web and social networking have eased the spread of fake news among people at a faster rate.At most of the times,the intention of fake news is to misinform the people and make manipulated societal insights.The spread of low-quality news in social networking sites has a negative influence upon people as well as the society.In order to overcome the ever-increasing dissemination of fake news,automated detection models are developed using Artificial Intelligence(AI)and Machine Learning(ML)methods.The latest advancements in Deep Learning(DL)models and complex Natural Language Processing(NLP)tasks make the former,a significant solution to achieve Fake News Detection(FND).In this background,the current study focuses on design and development of Natural Language Processing with Sea Turtle Foraging Optimizationbased Deep Learning Technique for Fake News Detection and Classification(STODL-FNDC)model.The aim of the proposed STODL-FNDC model is to discriminate fake news from legitimate news in an effectual manner.In the proposed STODL-FNDC model,the input data primarily undergoes pre-processing and Glove-based word embedding.Besides,STODL-FNDC model employs Deep Belief Network(DBN)approach for detection as well as classification of fake news.Finally,STO algorithm is utilized after adjusting the hyperparameters involved in DBN model,in an optimal manner.The novelty of the study lies in the design of STO algorithm with DBN model for FND.In order to improve the detection performance of STODL-FNDC technique,a series of simulations was carried out on benchmark datasets.The experimental outcomes established the better performance of STODL-FNDC approach over other methods with a maximum accuracy of 95.50%.
