Abstract:

Recent years have witnessed the advances of deep learning techniques in various areas of NLP. However, as a typical data-driven approach, deep learning suffers from the issues of shallow semantic matching and poor interpretability. A potential solution is to incorporate large-scale symbol-based knowledge graphs into deep learning. In this talk, I will present recent advances on knowledgeable learning for NLP.
