Readability Assessment

We present a multiattentive recurrent neural network architecture for automatic multilingual readability assessment. This architecture considers raw words as its main input, but internally captures text structure and informs its word attention process using other syntax- and morphology-related datapoints, known to be of great importance to readability. This is achieved by a multiattentive strategy that allows the neural network to focus on specific parts of a text for predicting its reading level. We conducted an exhaustive evaluation using data sets targeting multiple languages and prediction task types, to compare the proposed model with traditional, state-of-the-art, and other neural network strategies.

Purpose The fabulous results of convolution neural networks in image-related tasks attracted attention of text mining, sentiment analysis and other text analysis researchers. It is, however, difficult to find enough data for feeding such networks, optimize their parameters, and make the right design choices when constructing network architectures. The purpose of this paper is to present the creation steps of two big data sets of song emotions. The authors also explore usage of convolution and max-pooling neural layers on song lyrics, product and movie review text data sets. Three variants of a simple and flexible neural network architecture are also compared. Design/methodology/approach The intention was to spot any important patterns that can serve as guidelines for parameter optimization of similar models. The authors also wanted to identify architecture design choices which lead to high performing sentiment analysis models. To this end, the authors conducted a series of experiments with neural architectures of various configurations. Findings The results indicate that parallel convolutions of filter lengths up to 3 are usually enough for capturing relevant text features. Also, max-pooling region size should be adapted to the length of text documents for producing the best feature maps. Originality/value Top results the authors got are obtained with feature maps of lengths 6–18. An improvement on future neural network models for sentiment analysis could be generating sentiment polarity prediction of documents using aggregation of predictions on smaller excerpt of the entire text.

AbstractRedundancy manipulators need favorable redundancy resolution to obtain suitable control actions to guarantee accurate kinematic control. Among numerous kinematic control applications, some specific tasks such as minimally invasive manipulation/surgery require the distal link of a manipulator to translate along such fixed point. Such a point is known as remote center of motion (RCM) to constrain motion planning and kinematic control of manipulators. Recurrent neural network (RNN) which possesses parallel processing ability, is a powerful alternative and has achieved success in conventional redundancy resolution and kinematic control with physical constraints of joint limits. However, up to now, there still is few related works on the RNNs for redundancy resolution and kinematic control of manipulators with RCM constraints considered yet. In this paper, for the first time, an RNN-based approach with a simplified neural network architecture is proposed to solve the redundancy resolution issue with RCM constraints, with a new and general dynamic optimization formulation containing the RCM constraints investigated. Theoretical results analyze and convergence properties of the proposed simplified RNN for redundancy resolution of manipulators with RCM constraints. Simulation results further demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method in end-effector path tracking control under RCM constraints based on a redundant manipulator.
