• Authors: Ayush Pancholy, Miriam R. L. Petruck, Swabha Swayamdipta
• Abstract summary: We propose a data augmentation approach, which uses existing frame-specific annotation to automatically annotate other lexical units of the same frame which are unannotated. We present experiments on frame-semantic role labeling which demonstrate the importance of this data augmentation.

• Abstract: While FrameNet is widely regarded as a rich resource of semantics in natural language processing, a major criticism concerns its lack of coverage and the relative paucity of its labeled data compared to other commonly used lexical resources such as PropBank and VerbNet. This paper reports on a pilot study to address these gaps. We propose a data augmentation approach, which uses existing frame-specific annotation to automatically annotate other lexical units of the same frame which are unannotated. Our rule-based approach defines the notion of a sister lexical unit and generates frame-specific augmented data for training. We present experiments on frame-semantic role labeling which demonstrate the importance of this data augmentation: we obtain a large improvement to prior results on frame identification and argument identification for FrameNet, utilizing both full-text and lexicographic annotations under FrameNet. Our findings on data augmentation highlight the value of automatic resource creation for improved models in frame-semantic parsing.

• Self-Sufficient Framework for Continuous Sign Language Recognition [75.60327502570242]
  The goal of this work is to develop self-sufficient framework for Continuous Sign Language Recognition. These include the need for complex multi-scale features such as hands, face, and mouth for understanding, and absence of frame-level annotations. We propose Divide and Focus Convolution (DFConv) which extracts both manual and non-manual features without the need for additional networks or annotations. DPLR propagates non-spiky frame-level pseudo-labels by combining the ground truth gloss sequence labels with the predicted sequence.

• A Double-Graph Based Framework for Frame Semantic Parsing [23.552054033442545]
  Frame semantic parsing is a fundamental NLP task, which consists of three subtasks: frame identification, argument identification and role classification. Most previous studies tend to neglect relations between different subtasks and arguments and pay little attention to ontological frame knowledge. In this paper, we propose a Knowledge-guided semanticPK with Double-graph (KID) Our experiments show KID outperforms the previous state-of-the-art method by up to 1.7 F1-score on two FrameNet datasets.

  We present a novel image captioning architecture to better explore semantics available in captions and leverage that to enhance both image representation and caption generation. Our models first construct caption-guided visual relationship graphs that introduce beneficial inductive bias using weakly supervised multi-instance learning. During generation, the model further incorporates visual relationships using multi-task learning for jointly predicting word and object/predicate tag sequences.

  We propose FrameAxis, a method for characterizing documents by identifying the most relevant semantic axes ("microframes") FrameAxis is designed to quantitatively tease out two important dimensions of how microframes are used in the text.
