Collocations

Does a sample belong to a population with mean µ?

1. General case, example: height, sentence length. 1. Known standard deviation σ

Calculate z-score: z = 𝑋�−𝜇

𝜎2 𝑛� and corresponding p-value.

2. Unknown st. dev.. Approximate by sample st. dev. s

Calculate t-score: t = 𝑋�−𝜇

𝑠2 𝑛� and the t(n-1) density curve.

2. Proportion n items, k successes, �̂� = 𝑘 𝑛⁄ p = µ (the expected proportion), 𝜎2 = 𝑝 (1 − 𝑝)

for large n: z-score: z = 𝑝�−𝑝

𝑝(1−𝑝)𝑛� and corresponding p-value.

“T-test” for collocations

How likely/unlikely is w1 and w2 to occur together?

Null hypothesis, H0 : P(w1=new, w2=companies)= P(w1=new)×P(w2=companies)

Hypothesis, Ha : P(w1=new, w2=companies)> P(w1=new)×P(w2=companies)

The expectation, µ=p = P(w1=new)×P(w2=companies) =3.615 x 10- 7

�̂� = P(w1=new, w2=companies) = 5.591 x 10- 7

N = 14307668

Manning and Schütze uses t-score: t = 𝑋�−𝜇

𝑠2 𝑛�

Since this is propoprtion it is more correct to use z = 𝑝�−𝑝

𝑝(1−𝑝)𝑛�

Collocations tests 8

1. T-test 2. Absolute frequencies

3. Dice score 2×𝑃(𝑤1𝑤2)𝑃 𝑤1 +𝑃(𝑤2)

4. Pointwise mutual information log( 𝑃 𝑤1𝑤2𝑃 𝑤1 ×𝑃 𝑤2

)

5. χ2 test 6. (Mutual information)

Pointwise mutual information

In the T-test we compared P(new companies) with P(new)xP(companies)

Idea: compare these directly P(new companies)/P(new)xP(companies)

log(P(new companies)/P(new)xP(companies)) = Pointwise mutual information Observe: log does not change the ranking log has a theoretical motivation

Problems with pmi

If w1w2 only occur together, the score increases when the frequency of w2 decreases P(w1 w2) = P(w1) = P(w2) P(w1 w2)/P(w1)xP(w2) = 1/P(w2)

Bad measure of dependence Good measure of independence

All measures are unreliable for small samples

χ2 test

O11= 8

E11= P(new) x P(companies) x N = (C(new)/N) x (C(companies)/N) x N = (O11 + O12 ) x (O11 + O21 ) /N, Etc

H0 : no association between row and column variable:

If true, X2-statistics has approx. a χ2 distribution with (r-1)(c-1) degrees of freedom (d.f.)

𝑝�(1−𝑝�)𝑛� +𝑝2� (1−𝑝2� )

Applied to collocations

Assumption: 1-p is so close to 1 that p is a good approximation to s2 = p(1-p)

What is a collocation

Non-compositional Ex.: N-N compounds in English, written as one word in

German/Norwegian: white wine

Non substitutability: red wine, burgundy wine Frozen Or only frequent co-occurrence?

Feature selection 18

Today



19

Feature selection 20

To include all words as features is too costly Select features which

Separate between the classes Expected to occur with a reasonable frequency

To select: use similar measures as for collocations, e.g.

Raw frequency Chi-square Mutual information …

Apply chi square 21

Assume a binary classifier: only two classes {yes, no} and binary features

For every feature calculate the chi square score between the two values of the feature and the two classes

Select the words with the highest score as features

Feature selection, contd. 26

Similarly to collocations, we may use other association measures, e.g. Pointwise mutual information Mutual information

A difference between the different measures is how they trade-off: discrimination/frequency

Footnote: Alternative formulation

(In case you read other presentations, like Mitchell or Hastie et. al.: They use a slightly different formulation, corresponding to

where for i = 1, 2,…, k-1:

But and

The two formulations are equivalent though: In the J&M formulation, divide the numerator and denominator in each P(ci|f)

with

and you get this formulation (with adjustments to Z and w.)

Examples – J&M 36

Why called ”maximum entropy”?

See NLTK book for a further example

37

P(NN)+P(JJ)+P(NNS)+P(VB)=1

P(NN)+P(NNS)=0.8

P(VB)=1/20

Why called ”maximum entropy”?

The multinomial logistic regression yields the probability distribution which Gives the maximum entropy Given our training data

Maxent vs Naive Bayes

If the Naive Bayes assumption is warranted – i.e. the features are independent – the two yield the same result in the limit.

Otherwise, Maxent cope better with dependencies between features

With Maxent you may throw in features and let the model decide whether they are useful

Maxent training is slower

43

More than two classes (in general)

Any of or multivalue classification An item may belong to 1, 0 or more than 1 classes Classes are independent Use n binary classifiers Example: Documents

One-of or multinomial classification Each item belongs to one class Classes are mutually exclusive Example: POS-tagging

45

One of classifiers

Many classifiers are built for binary problems

Simply combining several binary quantifiers do not result in a one-of-classifier.

?

?

?

46

Combining binary classifiers

Build a classifier for each class compared to its complement For a test document, evaluate it for membership in each

class Assign document to class with either:

maximum probability maximum score maximum confidence

Multinomial logistic regression is a good example Sometimes one postpones the decision and proceed with the

probabilities (soft classification), E.g. Maxent tagging
