Description

In Phase II of JOLTER, we will develop several extensions and improvements upon the probabilistic graphical models developed in Phase I for discovering topics, entities, and relations jointly. The system will be able to (1) Discover and extend hierarchies of topics, entities, and relations; (2) Discover categories for events, multiway relations, and their roles; (3) Conditionalize the topics, entities, and relations on metadata available about the document collection; (4) Display the learned categories and assignments of categories to documents using learned labels; and (5) Learn optimal hyperparameter settings such as the number of categories and perform probabilistic inference in an efficient manner.
