Convolution Kernels on Constituent, Dependency and Sequential Structures for Relation Extraction
This paper explores the use of innovative kernels based on syntactic and semantic structures for a target relation extraction task. Syntax is derived from constituent and dependency parse trees whereas semantics concerns to entity types and lexical sequences. We investigate the effectiveness of such representations in the automated relation extraction from texts. We process the above data by means of Support Vector Machines along with the syntactic tree, the partial tree and the word sequence kernels. Our study on the ACE 2004 corpus illustrates that the combination of the above kernels achieves high effectiveness and significantly improves the current state-of-the-art.
