Abstract

This paper describes use of negative examples in training the HVS semantic model We present a novel initialization of the lexical model using negative examples extracted automatically from a semantic corpus as well as description of an algorithm for extraction these examples We evaluated the use of negative examples on a closed domain human-human train timetable dialogue corpus We significantly improved the standard PARSEVAL scores of the baseline system The labeled F-measure (LF) was increased from 45.4% to 49.1%.
