Learning to Extract Comparison Points of Entity Pairs from Wikipedia Articles

Published: 23 May 2018 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper, we present preliminary results on a novel task of extracting comparison points for a pair of entities from the text articles describing them. The task is challenging as comparison points in a typical pair of articles tend to be sparse. We presented a multi-level document analysis (viz. document, paragraph and sentence level) for extracting the comparisons. For extracting sentence level comparisons, which is the hardest task among three, we have used Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with features extracted around <entity, aspect, value> triple. Experiments conducted on a small dataset provide encouraging performance.
