Using lexical chains for text summarization

TL;DR: Empirical results on the identification of strong chains and of significant sentences are presented in this paper, and plans to address short-comings are briefly presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Deep Learning Approach to Antibiotic Discovery

TL;DR: A deep neural network capable of predicting molecules with antibacterial activity is trained and a molecule from the Drug Repurposing Hub-halicin- is discovered that is structurally divergent from conventional antibiotics and displays bactericidal activity against a wide phylogenetic spectrum of pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling local coherence: An entity-based approach

TL;DR: This article re-conceptualize coherence assessment as a learning task and shows that the proposed entity-grid representation of discourse is well-suited for ranking-based generation and text classification tasks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analyzing Learned Molecular Representations for Property Prediction.

TL;DR: In this article, a graph convolutional model that consistently matches or outperforms models using fixed molecular descriptors as well as previous graph neural architectures on both public and proprietary data sets is presented.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Rationalizing Neural Predictions

TL;DR: The authors combine two modular components, generator and encoder, which are trained to operate well together to extract pieces of input text as justifications, tailored to be short and coherent, yet sufficient for making the same prediction.
