[Q]: More and more of the information on the web is dialogic, from Facebook newsfeeds, to forum conversations, to comment threads on news articles. In contrast to traditional, monologic Natural Language Processing resources such as news, highly social dialogue is frequent in social media, making it a challenging context for NLP. This paper tests a bootstrapping method, originally proposed in a monologic domain, to train classifiers to identify two different types of subjective language in dialogue: sarcasm and nastiness. We explore two methods of developing linguistic indicators to be used in a first level classifier aimed at maximizing precision at the expense of recall. The best performing classifier for the first phase achieves 54% precision and 38% recall for sarcastic utterances. We then use general syntactic patterns from previous work to create more general sarcasm indicators, improving precision to 62% and recall to 52%. To further test the generality of the method, we then apply it to bootstrapping a classifier for nastiness dialogic acts. Our first phase, using crowdsourced nasty indicators, achieves 58% precision and 49% recall, which increases to 75% precision and 62% recall when we bootstrap over the first level with generalized syntactic patterns.
[A]: Really? Well. Apparently Bootstrapping Improves the Performance of Sarcasm and Nastiness Classifiers for Online Dialogue


[Q]: Conditional probabilities are a core concept in machine learning. For ex-<lb>ample, optimal prediction of a label Y given an inputX corresponds to maximizing<lb>the conditional probability of Y given X . A common approach to inference tasks<lb>is learning a model of conditional probabilities. However, these models are often<lb>based on strong assumptions (e.g., log-linear models), and hence their estimate of<lb>conditional probabilities is not robust and is highly dependent on the validity of<lb>their assumptions.<lb>Here we propose a framework for reasoning about conditional probabilities without<lb>assuming anything about the underlying distributions, except knowledge of their<lb>second order marginals, which can be estimated from data. We show how this<lb>setting leads to guaranteed bounds on conditional probabilities, which can be calcu-<lb>lated efficiently in a variety of settings, including structured-prediction. Finally, we<lb>apply them to semi-supervised deep learning, obtaining results competitive with<lb>variational autoencoders.

[Q]: In recent years, deep architectures have been used for transfer learning with state-of-the-art performance in many datasets. The properties of their features remain, however, largely unstudied under the transfer perspective. In this work, we present an extensive analysis of the resiliency of feature vectors extracted from deep models, with special focus on the trade-off between performance and compression rate. By introducing perturbations to image descriptions extracted from a deep convolutional neural network, we change their precision and number of dimensions, measuring how it affects the final score. We show that deep features are more robust to these disturbances when compared to classical approaches, achieving a compression rate of 98.4%, while losing only 0.88% of their original score for Pascal VOC 2007.
