Abstract Cross-lingual image description, the task of generating image captions in a target language from images and descriptions in a source language, is addressed in this study through a novel approach that combines neural network models and semantic matching techniques. Experiments conducted on the Flickr8k and AraImg2k benchmark datasets, featuring images and descriptions in English and Arabic, showcase remarkable performance improvements over state-of-the-art methods. Our model, equipped with the Image & Cross-Language Semantic Matching module and the Target Language Domain Evaluation module, significantly enhances the semantic relevance of generated image descriptions. For English-to-Arabic and Arabic-to-English cross-language… More >

Abstract Web service (WS) presents a good solution to the interoperability of different types of systems that aims to reduce the overhead of high processing in a resource-limited environment. With the increasing demand for mobile WS (MWS), the WS discovery process has become a significant challenging point in the WS lifecycle that aims to identify the relevant MWSs that best match the service requests. This discovery process is a resource-consuming task that cannot be performed efficiently in a mobile computing environment due to the limitations of mobile devices. Meanwhile, a cloud computing can provide rich computing… More >

Abstract Given the limitations of the community question answering (CQA) answer quality prediction method in measuring the semantic information of the answer text, this paper proposes an answer quality prediction model based on the question-answer joint learning (ACLSTM). The attention mechanism is used to obtain the dependency relationship between the Question-and-Answer (Q&A) pairs. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-term Memory Network (LSTM) are used to extract semantic features of Q&A pairs and calculate their matching degree. Besides, answer semantic representation is combined with other effective extended features as the input representation of the fully connected More >

Abstract Sentence semantic matching (SSM) is a fundamental research in solving natural language processing tasks such as question answering and machine translation. The latest SSM research benefits from deep learning techniques by incorporating attention mechanism to semantically match given sentences. However, how to fully capture the semantic context without losing significant features for sentence encoding is still a challenge. To address this challenge, we propose a deep feature fusion model and integrate it into the most popular deep learning architecture for sentence matching task. The integrated architecture mainly consists of embedding layer, deep feature fusion layer, More >
