Siamese Networks for Semantic Pattern Similarity

17 Dec 2018  ·  Yassine Benajiba, Jin Sun, Yong Zhang, Longquan Jiang, Zhiliang Weng, Or Biran ·

Semantic Pattern Similarity is an interesting, though not often encountered NLP task where two sentences are compared not by their specific meaning, but by their more abstract semantic pattern (e.g., preposition or frame). We utilize Siamese Networks to model this task, and show its usefulness in determining SQL patterns for unseen questions in a database-backed question answering scenario. Our approach achieves high accuracy and contains a built-in proxy for confidence, which can be used to keep precision arbitrarily high.
