• Abstract: Named entity recognition on the in-domain supervised and few-shot settings have been extensively discussed in the NLP community and made significant progress. However, cross-domain NER, a more common task in practical scenarios, still poses a challenge for most NER methods. Previous research efforts in that area primarily focus on knowledge transfer such as correlate label information from source to target domains but few works pay attention to the problem of label conflict. In this study, we introduce a label alignment and reassignment approach, namely LAR, to address this issue for enhanced cross-domain named entity recognition, which includes two core procedures: label alignment between source and target domains and label reassignment for type inference. The process of label reassignment can significantly be enhanced by integrating with an advanced large-scale language model such as ChatGPT. We conduct an extensive range of experiments on NER datasets involving both supervised and zero-shot scenarios. Empirical experimental results demonstrate the validation of our method with remarkable performance under the supervised and zero-shot out-of-domain settings compared to SOTA methods.

• Inter-Domain Mixup for Semi-Supervised Domain Adaptation [108.40945109477886]
  Semi-supervised domain adaptation (SSDA) aims to bridge source and target domain distributions, with a small number of target labels available. Existing SSDA work fails to make full use of label information from both source and target domains for feature alignment across domains. This paper presents a novel SSDA approach, Inter-domain Mixup with Neighborhood Expansion (IDMNE), to tackle this issue.

  Multi-source Unsupervised Domain Adaptation transfers knowledge from multiple source domains with labeled data to an unlabeled target domain. The distribution discrepancy between different domains and the noisy pseudo-labels in the target domain both lead to performance bottlenecks. We propose an approach that integrates Attention-driven Domain fusion and Noise-Tolerant learning (ADNT) to address the two issues mentioned above.

  We propose a novel framework via joint domain-aware labels and dual-classifier to produce high-quality pseudo-labels. To predict accurate pseudo-labels under domain shift, a domain-aware pseudo-labeling module is developed. Also, considering inconsistent goals between generalization and pseudo-labeling, we employ a dual-classifier to independently perform pseudo-labeling and domain generalization in the training process.

  We propose an instance affinity based criterion for source to target transfer during adaptation, called ILA-DA. We first propose a reliable and efficient method to extract similar and dissimilar samples across source and target, and utilize a multi-sample contrastive loss to drive the domain alignment process. We verify the effectiveness of ILA-DA by observing consistent improvements in accuracy over popular domain adaptation approaches on a variety of benchmark datasets.

  Domain adaptation aims to transfer knowledge from a label-rich but heterogeneous domain to a label-scare domain. One of the most popular SSL techniques is pseudo-labeling that assigns pseudo labels for each unlabeled data. We propose a new pseudo-labeling framework called Auxiliary Target Domain-Oriented (ATDOC) ATDOC alleviates the bias by introducing an auxiliary classifier for target data only, to improve the quality of pseudo labels.
