Abstract

Unsupervised random-walk keyphrase extraction models mainly rely on global structural information of the word graph, with nodes representing candidate words and edges capturing the co-occurrence information between candidate words. However, integrating different types of useful information into the representation learning process to help better extract keyphrases is relatively unexplored. In this paper, we propose a random-walk method to extract keyphrases using word embeddings. Specifically, we first design a new word embedding learning model to integrate local context information of the word graph (i.e., the local word collocation patterns) with some crucial features of candidate words and edges. Then, a novel random-walk ranking model is designed to extract keyphrases by leveraging such word embeddings. Experimental results show that our approach outperforms 8 state-of-the-art unsupervised methods on two real datasets consistently for keyphrase extraction.
