Few-shot Name Entity Recognition on StackOverflow

Xinwei Chen, Kun Li, Tianyou Song et al.

StackOverflow, with its vast question repository and limited labeled examples, raise an annotation challenge for us. We address this gap by proposing RoBERTa+MAML, a few-shot named entity recognition (NER) method leveraging meta-learning. Our approach, evaluated on the StackOverflow NER corpus (27 entity types), achieves a 5% F1 score improvement over the baseline. We improved the results further domain-specific phrase processing enhance results.

Mix of Experts Language Model for Named Entity Recognition

Xinwei Chen, Kun Li, Tianyou Song et al.

Named Entity Recognition (NER) is an essential steppingstone in the field of natural language processing. Although promising performance has been achieved by various distantly supervised models, we argue that distant supervision inevitably introduces incomplete and noisy annotations, which may mislead the model training process. To address this issue, we propose a robust NER model named BOND-MoE based on Mixture of Experts (MoE). Instead of relying on a single model for NER prediction, multiple models are trained and ensembled under the Expectation-Maximization (EM) framework, so that noisy supervision can be dramatically alleviated. In addition, we introduce a fair assignment module to balance the document-model assignment process. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets show that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance compared with other distantly supervised NER.

Region-level labels in ice charts can produce pixel-level segmentation for Sea Ice types

Muhammed Patel, Xinwei Chen, Linlin Xu et al.

Fully supervised deep learning approaches have demonstrated impressive accuracy in sea ice classification, but their dependence on high-resolution labels presents a significant challenge due to the difficulty of obtaining such data. In response, our weakly supervised learning method provides a compelling alternative by utilizing lower-resolution regional labels from expert-annotated ice charts. This approach achieves exceptional pixel-level classification performance by introducing regional loss representations during training to measure the disparity between predicted and ice chart-derived sea ice type distributions. Leveraging the AI4Arctic Sea Ice Challenge Dataset, our method outperforms the fully supervised U-Net benchmark, the top solution of the AutoIce challenge, in both mapping resolution and class-wise accuracy, marking a significant advancement in automated operational sea ice mapping.
