Objective: We aim to learn potential novel cures for diseases from unstructured text sources. More specifically, we seek to extract drug-disease pairs of potential cures to diseases by a simple reasoning over the structure of spoken text. Materials and Methods: We use Google Cloud to transcribe podcast episodes of an NPR radio show. We then build a pipeline for systematically pre-processing the text to ensure quality input to the core classification model, which feeds to a series of post-processing steps for obtaining filtered results. Our classification model itself uses a language model pre-trained on PubMed text. The modular nature of our pipeline allows for ease of future developments in this area by substituting higher quality components at each stage of the pipeline. As a validation measure, we use ROBOKOP, an engine over a medical knowledge graph with only validated pathways, as a ground truth source for checking the existence of the proposed pairs. For the proposed pairs not found in ROBOKOP, we provide further verification using Chemotext. Results: We found 30.4% of our proposed pairs in the ROBOKOP database. For example, our model successfully identified that Omeprazole can help treat heartburn.We discuss the significance of this result, showing some examples of the proposed pairs. Discussion and Conclusion: The agreement of our results with the existing knowledge source indicates a step in the right direction. Given the plug-and-play nature of our framework, it is easy to add, remove, or modify parts to improve the model as necessary. We discuss the results showing some examples, and note that this is a potentially new line of research that has further scope to be explored. Although our approach was originally oriented on radio podcast transcripts, it is input-agnostic and could be applied to any source of textual data and to any problem of interest.

Many brokers have adapted their operation to exploit the potential of the web. Despite the importance of the real estate classifieds, there has been little work in analyzing such data. In this paper we propose a two-stage regression model that exploits the textual data in real estate classifieds. We show how our model can be used to predict the price of a real estate classified. We also show how our model can be used to highlight keywords that affect the price positively or negatively. To assess our contributions, we analyze four real world data sets, which we gathered from three different property websites. The analysis shows that our model (which exploits textual features) achieves significantly lower root mean squared error across the different data sets and against variety of regression models.
Documents often contain complex physical structures, which make the Document Layout Analysis (DLA) task challenging. As a pre-processing step for content extraction, DLA has the potential to capture rich information in historical or scientific documents on a large scale. Although many deep-learning-based methods from computer vision have already achieved excellent performance in detecting emph{Figure} from documents, they are still unsatisfactory in recognizing the emph{List}, emph{Table}, emph{Text} and emph{Title} category blocks in DLA. This paper proposes a VTLayout model fusing the documents deep visual, shallow visual, and text features to localize and identify different category blocks. The model mainly includes two stages, and the three feature extractors are built in the second stage. In the first stage, the Cascade Mask R-CNN model is applied directly to localize all category blocks of the documents. In the second stage, the deep visual, shallow visual, and text features are extracted for fusion to identify the category blocks of documents. As a result, we strengthen the classification power of different category blocks based on the existing localization technique. The experimental results show that the identification capability of the VTLayout is superior to the most advanced method of DLA based on the PubLayNet dataset, and the F1 score is as high as 0.9599.
Language models that utilize extensive self-supervised pre-training from unlabeled text, have recently shown to significantly advance the state-of-the-art performance in a variety of language understanding tasks. However, it is yet unclear if and how these recent models can be harnessed for conducting text-based recommendations. In this work, we introduce RecoBERT, a BERT-based approach for learning catalog-specialized language models for text-based item recommendations. We suggest novel training and inference procedures for scoring similarities between pairs of items, that dont require item similarity labels. Both the training and the inference techniques were designed to utilize the unlabeled structure of textual catalogs, and minimize the discrepancy between them. By incorporating four scores during inference, RecoBERT can infer text-based item-to-item similarities more accurately than other techniques. In addition, we introduce a new language understanding task for wine recommendations using similarities based on professional wine reviews. As an additional contribution, we publish annotated recommendations dataset crafted by human wine experts. Finally, we evaluate RecoBERT and compare it to various state-of-the-art NLP models on wine and fashion recommendations tasks.
Social data mining is an interesting phe-nomenon which colligates different sources of social data to extract information. This information can be used in relationship prediction, decision making, pat-tern recognition, social mapping, responsibility distri-bution and many other applications. This paper presents a systematical data mining architecture to mine intellectual knowledge from social data. In this research, we use social networking site facebook as primary data source. We collect different attributes such as about me, comments, wall post and age from facebook as raw data and use advanced data mining approaches to excavate intellectual knowledge. We also analyze our mined knowledge with comparison for possible usages like as human behavior prediction, pattern recognition, job responsibility distribution, decision making and product promoting.
While most topic modeling algorithms model text corpora with unigrams, human interpretation often relies on inherent grouping of terms into phrases. As such, we consider the problem of discovering topical phrases of mixed lengths. Existing work either performs post processing to the inference results of unigram-based topic models, or utilizes complex n-gram-discovery topic models. These methods generally produce low-quality topical phrases or suffer from poor scalability on even moderately-sized datasets. We propose a different approach that is both computationally efficient and effective. Our solution combines a novel phrase mining framework to segment a document into single and multi-word phrases, and a new topic model that operates on the induced document partition. Our approach discovers high quality topical phrases with negligible extra cost to the bag-of-words topic model in a variety of datasets including research publication titles, abstracts, reviews, and news articles.
