Improving Concept Detection by Utilizing Temporal Relationships REU: Christian Weigandt Mentor: KhurramSoomro
Overview • We aim to take advantage of temporal relationships in order to improve the accuracy of concept detection • We quantify these temporal relationships as causality • We consider one concept to cause another if they occur subsequently within a specific timespan Improving Concept Detection by Utilizing Temporal Relationships – Christian Weigandt
Approaches • We incorporated causality into three different graph-based approaches: • An iterative approach • A dynamic programming approach • A Markov chain inspired approach • Using at least one of these methods, we are able to see improvements in concept detection Improving Concept Detection by Utilizing Temporal Relationships – Christian Weigandt
