Hubness and Pollution: Delving into Cross-Space Mapping for Zero-Shot Learning
Zero-shot methods in language, vision and other domains rely on a cross-space mapping function that projects vectors from the relevant feature space (e.g., visualfeature-based ima...

Sparse, Contextually Informed Models for Irony Detection: Exploiting User Communities, Entities and Sentiment
Automatically detecting verbal irony (roughly, sarcasm) in online content is important for many practical applications (e.g., sentiment detection), but it is difficult. Previous ...

Multi-domain Dialog State Tracking using Recurrent Neural Networks
Dialog state tracking is a key component of many modern dialog systems, most of which are designed with a single, welldefined domain in mind. This paper shows that dialog data dr...

Cross-lingual Transfer of Named Entity Recognizers without Parallel Corpora
We propose an approach to cross-lingual named entity recognition model transfer without the use of parallel corpora. In addition to global de-lexicalized features, we introduce mu...

Describing Images using Inferred Visual Dependency Representations
The Visual Dependency Representation (VDR) is an explicit model of the spatial relationships between objects in an image. In this paper we present an approach to training a VDR Pa...

Generating High Quality Proposition Banks for Multilingual Semantic Role Labeling
Semantic role labeling (SRL) is crucial to natural language understanding as it identifies the predicate-argument structure in text with semantic labels. Unfortunately, resources...

Pairwise Neural Machine Translation Evaluation
We present a novel framework for machine translation evaluation using neural networks in a pairwise setting, where the goal is to select the better translation from a pair of hypo...
