• Abstract: In the realm of patent document analysis, assessing semantic similarity between phrases presents a significant challenge, notably amplifying the inherent complexities of Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) research. Firstly, this study addresses these challenges, recognizing early CPC work while acknowledging past struggles with language barriers and document intricacy. Secondly, it underscores the persisting difficulties of CPC research. To overcome these challenges and bolster the CPC system, This paper presents two key innovations. Firstly, it introduces an ensemble approach that incorporates four BERT-related models, enhancing semantic similarity accuracy through weighted averaging. Secondly, a novel text preprocessing method tailored for patent documents is introduced, featuring a distinctive input structure with token scoring that aids in capturing semantic relationships during CPC context training, utilizing BCELoss. Our experimental findings conclusively establish the effectiveness of both our Ensemble Model and novel text processing strategies when deployed on the U.S. Patent Phrase to Phrase Matching dataset.

  Sentence Pattern Structure (SPS) parsing is a syntactic analysis method primarily employed in language teaching. Existing SPSs rely heavily on textbook corpora for training, lacking cross-domain capability. This paper proposes an innovative approach leveraging large language models (LLMs) within a self-training framework.

  Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) represent sophisticated attack patterns in the cybersecurity domain. We formulate the problem in a different learning paradigm, where the assignment of a text to a TTP label is decided by the direct semantic similarity between the two. We propose a neural matching architecture with an effective sampling-based learn-to-compare mechanism.

  We introduce a CLIP-based Synergistic Knowledge Transfer (CSKT) approach for Person Retrieval (TPR) To explore the CLIP's knowledge on input side, we first propose a Bidirectional Prompts Transferring (BPT) module constructed by text-to-image and image-to-text bidirectional prompts and coupling projections. CSKT outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches across three benchmark datasets when the training parameters merely account for 7.4% of the entire model.

  Chinese spelling check (CSC) is a fundamental NLP task that detects and corrects spelling errors in Chinese texts.

We propose SCOPE which builds on top of a shared encoder two parallel decoders, one for the primary CSC task and the other for a fine-grained auxiliary CPP task.

  We present a study exploring the use of cross-sentence information for NER using BERT models in five languages. We find that adding context in the form of additional sentences to BERT input increases NER performance on all of the tested languages and models. We propose a straightforward method, Contextual Majority Voting (CMV), to combine different predictions for sentences and demonstrate this to further increase NER performance with BERT.
