Char-RNN and Active Learning for Hashtag Segmentation
We explore the abilities of character recurrent neural network (char-RNN) for hashtag segmentation. Our approach to the task is the following: we generate synthetic training dataset according to frequent n-grams that satisfy predefined morpho-syntactic patterns to avoid any manual annotation. The active learning strategy limits the training dataset and selects informative training subset. The approach does not require any language-specific settings and is compared for two languages, which differ in inflection degree.
