Summary

This is a paper introducing LUCHS, a self-supervised relations-specific IE system capable of learning more than 5000 relations with an average F1 score of 61%. The system applies dynamic lexicon features learning is applied as a semi-supervise learning solution cope with sparse training data.

System Architecture

The following figure summarizes the architecture of LUCHS.

  • A Schema Classifier is trained by Wikipedia pages containing infoboxes, which can be used to decide which schema should be applied to an article without infobox;
  • Training Data is generated heuristically by the Matcher (e.g. the Wikipedia article "Jerry Seinfeld" contains sentence "Seinfeld was born in Brooklyn, New York." and at the infobox within the same page, contains relation pair "birth_place = Brooklyn"; the Matcher heuristically generate training data for extractors of different relations (but in this paper the authors didn't describe any details about this part);
  • A language model is trained by CRF Learner, using the training data generated by Matcher, and used as a Extractor to extract structured information from free text;
