Utilizing Entity-Based Gated Convolution and Multilevel Sentence Attention to Improve Distantly Supervised Relation Extraction

Distant supervision is an effective method to automatically collect large-scale datasets for relation extraction (RE). Automatically constructed datasets usually comprise two types of noise: the intrasentence noise and the wrongly labeled noisy sentence. To address issues caused by the above two typ...
