Can Deep Learning solve the Sentiment Analysis ProblemMark Cieliebak
Sentiment analysis appears to be one of the easier tasks in the realm of text analytics: given a text like a tweet or product review, decide whether it contains positive or negative opinion. This task is almost trivial for humans, but it turns out to be a true challenge for automated systems. In fact, state-of-the-art sentiment analysis tools are wrong on approx. 4 out of 10 documents.
Current sentiment analysis tools are rule-based, feature-based, or combinations of both. However, recent research uses deep learning on very large sets of documents.
In this talk, we will explain the intrinsic difficulties of automated sentiment analysis; present existing solution approaches and their performance; describe an architecture for a deep learning system; and explore whether deep learning can improve sentiment analysis accuracy.

Unsupervised Software-Specific Morphological Forms Inference from Informal Di...Chunyang Chen
The paper accepted on ICSE'17 and TSE'19. https://se-thesaurus.appspot.com/ https://pypi.org/project/DomainThesaurus/ Informal discussions on social platforms (e.g., Stack Overflow) accumulates a large body of programming knowledge in natural language text. Natural language process (NLP) techniques can be exploited to harvest this knowledge base for software engineering tasks. To make an effective use of NLP techniques, consistent vocabulary is essential. Unfortunately, the same concepts are often intentionally or accidentally mentioned in many different morphological forms in informal discussions, such as abbreviations, synonyms and misspellings. Existing techniques to deal with such morphological forms are either designed for general English or predominantly rely on domain-specific lexical rules. A thesaurus of software-specific terms and commonlyused morphological forms is desirable for normalizing software engineering text, but very difficult to build manually. In this work, we propose an automatic approach to build such a thesaurus. Our approach identifies software-specific terms by contrasting software-specific and general corpuses, and infers morphological forms of software-specific terms by combining distributed word semantics, domain-specific lexical rules and transformations, and graph analysis of morphological relations. We evaluate the coverage and accuracy of the resulting thesaurus against community-curated lists of software-specific terms, abbreviations and synonyms. We also manually examine the correctness of the identified abbreviations and synonyms in our thesaurus. We demonstrate the usefulness of our thesaurus in a case study of normalizing questions from Stack Overflow and CodeProject.

This manuscript describes a methodology designed and implemented to realise the recommendation of vocabularies based on the content of a given website. The goal of the proposed approach is to generate vocabularies by reusing existing schemas. The automatic recommendation helps to leverage websites to self-described web entities in the Web of Data; understandable by both humans and machines. In this direction, the implemented approach is wrapped within a broader methodology of turning a website in a machine understandable node by using technologies that have been developed in the scope of the Semantic Web vision. Transforming a website to a machine understandable entity is the first step required by the websites side in order to narrow the gap with web agents and enable the structured content consumption without the need of implementing an Application Programming Interface (API) that would provide read-write functionality. The motivation of the thesis stems from the fact that the data provided via an API is already presented on the corresponding website in most of the cases.
A fundamental goal of search engines is to identify, given a query, documents that have relevant text. This is intrinsically difficult because the query and the document may use different vocabulary, or the document may contain query words without being relevant. We investigate neural word embeddings as a source of evidence in document ranking. We train a word2vec embedding model on a large unlabelled query corpus, but in contrast to how the model is commonly used, we retain both the input and the output projections, allowing us to leverage both the embedding spaces to derive richer distributional relationships. During ranking we map the query words into the input space and the document words into the output space, and compute a query-document relevance score by aggregating the cosine similarities across all the query-document word pairs.
We postulate that the proposed Dual Embedding Space Model (DESM) captures evidence on whether a document is about a query term in addition to what is modelled by traditional term-frequency based approaches. Our experiments show that the DESM can re-rank top documents returned by a commercial Web search engine, like Bing, better than a term-matching based signal like TF-IDF. However, when ranking a larger set of candidate documents, we find the embeddings-based approach is prone to false positives, retrieving documents that are only loosely related to the query. We demonstrate that this problem can be solved effectively by ranking based on a linear mixture of the DESM and the word counting features.
Detecting Good Practices and Pitfalls when Publishing Vocabularies on the Web María Poveda Villalón
The uptake of Linked Data (LD) has promoted the proliferation of datasets and their associated ontologies bringing their semantic to the data being published. These ontologies should be evaluated at different stages, both during their development and their publication. As important as correctly modelling the intended part of the world to be captured in an ontology, is publishing, sharing and facilitating the (re)use of the obtained model. In this paper, 11 evaluation characteristics, with respect to publish, share and facilitate the reuse, are proposed. In particular, 6 good practices and 5 pitfalls are presented, together with their associated detection methods. In addition, a grid-based rating system is generated showing the results of analysing the vocabularies gathered in LOV repository. Both contributions, the set of evaluation characteristics and the grid system, could be useful for ontologists in order to reuse existing LD vocabularies or to check the one being built.
Abstract—Composing a scientific workflow from scratch may be time-consuming, even if the scientist is fully aware of the semantics, the inputs, and the outputs of the expected workflow.
Reusing existing services and parts from already composed workflows can aid in reducing the total workflow composition time. However, matching the semantics and the inputs and outputs of these reusable components manually is not an easy task, especially when there are hundreds of such components available. Even components are annotated with information on the semantics of their inputs and outputs, the complex nature of the semantic languages may make manual component selection even harder. In this paper, we propose a Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) approach to assist composition of workflows based on the characteristics of the inputs and the outputs of the reusable workflow components, facilitating user exploitation of existing services and workflows during workflow composition. The architecture can also be extended to utilize the semantics of the various components improving the precision of the identified reusable components.
Using Semantic and Domain-based Information in CLIR SystemsMauro Dragoni
Cross-Language Information Retrieval (CLIR) systems extend classic information retrieval mechanisms for allowing users to query across languages, i.e., to retrieve documents written in languages different from the language used for query formulation.
In this paper, we present a CLIR system exploiting multilingual ontologies for enriching documents representation with multilingual semantic information during the indexing phase and for mapping query fragments to concepts during the retrieval phase.
This system has been applied on a domain-specific document collection and the contribution of the ontologies to the CLIR system has been evaluated in conjunction with the use of both Microsoft Bing and Google Translate translation services.
Results demonstrate that the use of domain-specific resources leads to a significant improvement of CLIR system performance.
Word Tagging with Foundational Ontology ClassesAndre Freitas
Semantic annotation is fundamental to deal with large-scale
lexical information, mapping the information to an enumerable set of
categories over which rules and algorithms can be applied, and foundational
ontology classes can be used as a formal set of categories for
such tasks. A previous alignment between WordNet noun synsets and
DOLCE provided a starting point for ontology-based annotation, but in
NLP tasks verbs are also of substantial importance. This work presents
an extension to the WordNet-DOLCE noun mapping, aligning verbs according
to their links to nouns denoting perdurants, transferring to the
verb the DOLCE class assigned to the noun that best represents that
verb’s occurrence. To evaluate the usefulness of this resource, we implemented
a foundational ontology-based semantic annotation framework,
that assigns a high-level foundational category to each word or phrase
in a text, and compared it to a similar annotation tool, obtaining an
increase of 9.05% in accuracy.
Word sense disambiguation is an essential, yet a very difficult task in natural language processing. While several other NLP tasks, such as POS tagging, can provide more than fairly good results (highly accurate, with almost 100% rate of successfully labeled words), disambiguation is far from achieving such performances. However, we will demonstrate the need of word sense disambiguation in computing the lexical chains on a special kind of text (chats) using a WordNet-based approach. In addition, we will try to identify the bottlenecks (mostly in respect to accuracy) in such an approach and provide possible improvements
Powering NLU Engine with Apache Spark to Communicate with World with Rahul KumarDatabricks
Building natural language processing engines is really a complex work. It requires an architecture where we glue many algorithms, data processing, and data storage techniques together to solve a single most important problem—how effectively we can understand users query in the form of text, voice, or visual gestures fast and effectively and respond them with zero error. Identifying the best tools available in the market and how we can fit these tools and libraries in our pipelines makes a great edge to build these systems.
In this talk, I will give a deep knowledge of how we’re using Apache Spark in our NLU engine to solve a complex problem with ease. At the end of the talk, attendees will get a high-level architecture overview of our NLU engine, some TensorFlow introduction, and how they can use Apache Spark in ML and deep learning system.
Neural Models for Information RetrievalBhaskar Mitra
In the last few years, neural representation learning approaches have achieved very good performance on many natural language processing (NLP) tasks, such as language modelling and machine translation. This suggests that neural models may also yield significant performance improvements on information retrieval (IR) tasks, such as relevance ranking, addressing the query-document vocabulary mismatch problem by using semantic rather than lexical matching. IR tasks, however, are fundamentally different from NLP tasks leading to new challenges and opportunities for existing neural representation learning approaches for text.
In this talk, I will present my recent work on neural IR models. We begin with a discussion on learning good representations of text for retrieval. I will present visual intuitions about how different embeddings spaces capture different relationships between items, and their usefulness to different types of IR tasks. The second part of this talk is focused on the applications of deep neural architectures to the document ranking task.
Question Answering over Linked Data - Reasoning IssuesMichael Petychakis

Globus Compute wth IRI Workflows - GlobusWorld 2024Globus
As part of the DOE Integrated Research Infrastructure (IRI) program, NERSC at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and ALCF at Argonne National Lab are working closely with General Atomics on accelerating the computing requirements of the DIII-D experiment. As part of the work the team is investigating ways to speedup the time to solution for many different parts of the DIII-D workflow including how they run jobs on HPC systems. One of these routes is looking at Globus Compute as a way to replace the current method for managing tasks and we describe a brief proof of concept showing how Globus Compute could help to schedule jobs and be a tool to connect compute at different facilities.

Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.

Graspan: A Big Data System for Big Code AnalysisAftab Hussain
We built a disk-based parallel graph system, Graspan, that uses a novel edge-pair centric computation model to compute dynamic transitive closures on very large program graphs.
We implement context-sensitive pointer/alias and dataflow analyses on Graspan. An evaluation of these analyses on large codebases such as Linux shows that their Graspan implementations scale to millions of lines of code and are much simpler than their original implementations.
These analyses were used to augment the existing checkers; these augmented checkers found 132 new NULL pointer bugs and 1308 unnecessary NULL tests in Linux 4.4.0-rc5, PostgreSQL 8.3.9, and Apache httpd 2.2.18.

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.

• A total of 39 structural patterns: 27 are collected from the NLP
and RE literature, and 12 are enhanced
• Examples:
o “LEO (noun) satellites (noun) and (conjugation) terminals (noun)”
o “categorize (verb) outages (noun) with (preposition) standard
(adjective) discrete (adjective) tags (noun)”

Application of Heuristics
• Two heuristics are novel, and eight are consolidated and
optimized from the existing NLP & RE literature(Chantree et al., 2005, Kilgarriff, 2003,
Yang et al., 2010, Okumura and Muraki, 1994, Agirre et al., 2008, Calvo and Gelbukh, 2003)

CA
The frequency of the modifier occurring with the closest conjunct
(1) “project manager and designer”
(2) “technical configuration and installation”
PAA
The frequency of the preposition occurring with the preceding verb
versus with the preceding noun
(1) “provide the user with a valid option”
(2) “maximize the resilience of the system”
16. Document collection
16
• We evaluate our approach on 20 RDs with
~5000 requirements from 7 diverse domains
• ~25% of the requirements contain coordination or pp-
attachment phrases
• Our dataset was annotated by two external annotators
• ~62% of the phrases deemed ambiguous have
unacknowledged ambiguity

RQ2. How effective is our approach at detecting
unacknowledged ambiguity?
• Comparing the phrases deemed ambiguous by our approach
against the phrases that had disagreements on the
interpretation in our ground truth
• Our approach can detect about 87% of the CA phrases and
91% of the PAA phrases that have unacknowledged ambiguity
