Abstract:

Machine learning proposes numerous algorithms to solve the different tasks that can be extracted from real world prediction problems. To solve the different concerned tasks, most Machine learning algorithms somehow rely on relationships between instances. Pairwise instances relationships can be obtained by computing a distance between the vectorial representations of the instances. Considering the available vectorial representation of the data, none of the commonly used distances is ensured to be representative of the task that aims at being solved. In this work, we investigate the gain of tuning the vectorial representation of the data to the distance to more optimally solve the task. We more particularly focus on an existing graph-based algorithm for classification task. An algorithm to learn a mapping of the data in a representation space which allows an optimal graph-based classification is first introduced. By projecting the data in a representation space in which the predefined distance is representative of the task, we aim at outperforming the initial vectorial representation of the data when solving the task. A theoretical analysis of the introduced algorithm is performed to define the conditions ensuring an optimal classification. A set of empirical experiments allows us to evaluate the gain of the introduced approach and to temper the theoretical analysis.

Projet de Master : Propagation d’étiquettes structurées pour le traitement automatique des langues https://team.inria.fr/magnet/projet-de-master-propagation-detiquettes-structurees-pour-le-traitement-automatique-des-langues/ Mon, 22 Sep 2014 08:22:22 +0000 https://team.inria.fr/magnet/?p=293

Continue reading]]> Titre : Propagation d’étiquettes structurées pour le traitement automatique des langues
Equipe : MAGNET
Responsable HDR : Marc Tommasi
Encadrant : Pascal Denis

Problématique :

Le traitement automatique des langues (TAL) offre deux défis centraux aux algorithmes d’apprentissage automatique: d’une part, la très grande dimensionalité de leur espace des sorties (leur nombre est le plus souvent exponentiel en la taille de l’input), et d’autre part, le faible volume de données annotées disponibles (qui vient du coût important associé à la collecte d’annotations linguistiques). Ces deux problèmes ont mené au développement d’algorithmes d’apprentissage qui intègrent ces sorties complexes, ainsi qu’à des approches qui exploitent, en plus des données annotées, des données non étiquetées (plus largement disponibles). Parmi ces dernières approches, les approches par graphe (basées notamment sur la propagation d’étiquettes et la régularisation par variété) se sont montrées extrêmement prometteuses. Malheureusement, ces approches par graphe n’ont jusqu’à présent pas été généralisées au cas des sorties structurées. La question est en effet de déterminer comment on peut propager des étiquettes structurées (p.ex., des séquences d’étiquettes ou des arbres en dépendances) à l’intérieur d’un graphe.

Travail réaliser :

Il s’agira tout d’abord pour l’étudiant de se familiariser, par le biais de lectures et l’écriture d’une synthèse, avec la littérature sur la prédiction de structure, l’apprentissage semi-supervisé par graphe, ainsi qu’un ou plusieurs problèmes de TAL (tels que l’analyse en partie de discours, le parsing syntaxique, ou l’analyse discursive) et les approches état-de-l’art pour ces problèmes. Dans un deuxième temps, l’étudiant reproduira quelques algorithmes état-de-l’art et les éprouvera sur des benchmarks. Enfin, l’étudiant tentera de combiner approches de prédiction de structures et de propagation par graphe.

title: A Markov random field approach to online graph label prediction

abstract: In graph label prediction each vertex is labeled with a 0 or 1.  The aim is given a partial labeling of the graph to extend to a complete labeling.  A common approach to this prediction problem is to relax the labels to [0,1] and then minimize a quadratic*energy*  function with respect to a partial labeling and predict with minimizer.  This approach is at the core of the very successful techniques in semi-supervised learning of label propagation [ZLG03] and manifold regularization [BN04].  We instead use the unrelaxed labels with an energy function to define a probability distribution over labelings (a Markov Random Field) and then predict by marginalization.  The relative drawback of this approach is the computational complexity.  We mitigate the problem with an efficient deterministic approximation.  For our approximation we prove worst-case online mistake bounds and also show that sequentially our approximate prediction cannot differ from the true marginal prediction very often for “easy’’ problems.
