  • sequence labeling

Definitional context(s)

  • Sequence labeling is an NLP approach that predicts a label for each token within a sequence rather than a label for the whole sequence. (Gandhi, Serrao, Fang, Antonius, Hong, Nguyen, Yi, Nosakhare, Shaffer & Srinivasan, 2022)

Example

  • In our work to build the sentence segmentation model we use sequence labeling with the Sentence-BI labeling scheme as discussed in Section 3.2.1. (Gandhi, Serrao, Fang, Antonius, Hong, Nguyen, Yi, Nosakhare, Shaffer & Srinivasan, 2022)
  • Sequence tagging approaches label words as fluent or disfluent using a variety of different techniques including conditional random fields (CRF) (Wang, Wang, Che & Liu, 2020)
