Abstract:

Ali’s tech buddy is a champion again! A few days ago, Orange’s good gay friend “Ali Technology” told me that there is a low-key and mysterious team within Ali, which is well-known in the industry. Recently, it won two championships: the Global champion of English Entity Discovery evaluation in KBP2017, the world’s top knowledge base construction evaluation; Won the champion in all three levels of The Chinese Grammar error automatic diagnosis competition.

Ali’s tech buddy is a champion again!

A few days ago, Orange’s good gay friend Ali Tech told me that there is a low-key, secretive but well-known team inside Ali that recently won two championships:

Build assessments in the world’s top knowledge baseKBP2017Chinese, won the Global Champion of English Entity Discovery Assessment;

inChinese Grammar error automatic diagnosis competitionWon the champion in all three levels.



Siluo, chief scientist of iDST natural language processing

This two-time champion team is —IDST Natural Language Processing team!

This is a big team across the Pacific, they are located in Hangzhou, Beijing, Silicon Valley and Seattle, most of them have more than 10 years of NLP r&d experience, more than 30% of them have a PhD (such as CMU, Berkeley, Princeton, Tsinghua, Peking University, etc.). He has won several international natural Language technology competitions before.

Siluo, who is in charge of iDST’s natural language processing team, is a leading machine intelligence scholar in the world. He once served as a tenured professor in the Department of Computer Science at Purdue University in the United States, and joined Alibaba in 2014.

Regarding the achievements, Siluo said humbly: “It is a great honor to share alibaba’s research results with global peers. Artificial intelligence is still in its infancy in machine reading comprehension and knowledge base construction. We are actively learning and communicating with top institutions in the industry to promote the development of the industry.”

What about all this world-class technology?

We are applying this information extraction technology to a wide range of businesses and are committed to enabling more small and medium developers to benefit from it.

KBPWhat is?

The KBP is sponsored by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology and co-sponsored by the U.S. Department of Defense. More than 20 top teams around the world are tasked with extracting entities from unstructured text written naturally and the relationships between them.

At present, Ali’s algorithm technology can be done to understand the context of the article. For example, if the word “Apple” appears in the article and “Jobs” appears in the article, it can be recognized that the word “Jobs” refers to Jobs, not the job. For example, if Microsoft is mentioned in the article, Apple is more likely to be an Apple company than a fruit.



What is the Chinese Grammar Error automatic diagnosis contest?

The organizers selected pieces of Chinese composition written by foreign friends, hoping that contestants would use artificial intelligence algorithms to automatically identify grammatical and semantic errors. To put it simply, this competition is to use artificial intelligence to identify foreigners’ Chinese grammar mistakes.

For example, “I want to give you a celebration gift. Don’t be angry if you’re two or three days late.”

For this sentence, the AI needs to explicitly point out that “two or three days late” is wrong in order to score, when the correct usage should be “two or three days late”.

According to the results released by the organizing committee, Siluo team ranked first in all three levels of accuracy by a large margin and won the champion of 2017 CGED Competition.

This year, two Ali technology young brothers were selected for the MIT Global Young Science and Technology Innovation Talent Award. Now the AI team has won two champions in a row, making crazy calls for ali Technology young brothers.

What does the word AI mean?

In the general sense, AI refers to Artificial Intelligence, but in our view, as a technology company, AI meansAlibaba Inside!
