Tale of a Neural Network: From Part-Of-Speech to Parsing.
by Ronan Collobert NEC Labs
Location: Pavillon André-Aisenstadt (UdeM), room AA-3195 Time: *Friday, October 29, 14:30*
Abstract: We will present a single architecture which excels in performance on various Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks. Instead of hand-crafting task-specific features, generic word representations are * learnt* from large unlabeled corpuses. We will demonstrate how our architecture naturally applies to a wide range of tasks, from simple tasks like Part-Of-Speech, to complex tasks like Parsing. Analysis and comparison with existing NLP approaches will be given. The presentation will end with the introduction of a simple standalone software, implementing all these tasks with blazing execution speed.
