This is due to the intrinsic difficulty of the task in the high-dimensional discrete action space as well as the sparseness of the standard r…
Contextualised word embeddings is a powerful tool to detect contextual synonyms. However, most of the current state-of-the-art (SOTA) deep learning concept extraction methods remain supervised and underexploit the potential of the context. In this paper, we propose a self-supervised pre-training app…
