• Title: Recurrent Neural Networks with Mixed Hierarchical Structures for Natural Language Processing
• Authors: Zhaoxin Luo and Michael Zhu
• Abstract summary: Hierarchical structures exist in both linguistics and Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks. How to design RNNs to learn hierarchical representations of natural languages remains a long-standing challenge. In this paper, we define two different types of boundaries referred to as static and dynamic boundaries, respectively, and then use them to construct a multi-layer hierarchical structure for document classification tasks.

• Abstract: Hierarchical structures exist in both linguistics and Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks. How to design RNNs to learn hierarchical representations of natural languages remains a long-standing challenge. In this paper, we define two different types of boundaries referred to as static and dynamic boundaries, respectively, and then use them to construct a multi-layer hierarchical structure for document classification tasks. In particular, we focus on a three-layer hierarchical structure with static word- and sentence- layers and a dynamic phrase-layer. LSTM cells and two boundary detectors are used to implement the proposed structure, and the resulting network is called the {\em Recurrent Neural Network with Mixed Hierarchical Structures} (MHS-RNN). We further add three layers of attention mechanisms to the MHS-RNN model. Incorporating attention mechanisms allows our model to use more important content to construct document representation and enhance its performance on document classification tasks. Experiments on five different datasets show that the proposed architecture outperforms previous methods on all the five tasks.

The target semantic frame is organized in a 3-layer hierarchical structure to tackle the alignment and assignment problems in multi-intent cases. We devise a BiRGAT model to encode the hierarchy of items, the backbone of which is a dual relational graph attention network.

  hierarchical semantic segmentation (HSS) aims at structured, pixel-wise description of visual observation in terms of a class hierarchy. HSSN casts HSS as a pixel-wise multi-label classification task, only bringing minimal architecture change to current segmentation models. With hierarchy-induced margin constraints, HSSN reshapes the pixel embedding space, so as to generate well-structured pixel representations.
