Term set expansion based NLP architect by Intel AI lab

Abstract

We present SetExpander, the term set expansion system based NLP Architect by Intel AI Lab. SetExpander is a corpus-based system for expanding a seed set of terms into a more complete set of terms that belong to the same semantic class. It implements an iterative end-to-end workflow and enables users to easily select a seed set of terms, expand it, view the expanded set, validate it, re-expand the validated set and store it, thus simplifying the extraction of domain-specific fine-grained semantic classes. SetExpander has been used successfully in real-life use cases including integration into an automated recruitment system and an issues and defects resolution system.1
