背景: 生醫文獻語意角色標註（Semantic Role Labeling, SRL）是一種自然語言處理的技術，其可用來將描述生物過程的語句以predicate-argument structures ( PASs ) 表示。SRL 經常受限於arguments的unbalance problem而且需要花費許多的時間和記憶體空間在學習 arguments 之間的相依性。 方法: 我們提出一Markov Logic Network ( MLN ) -based SRL之系統，且此系統使用自動化生成之SRL 模板同時辨識constituents與候選之語意角色。 結果及結論: 我們的方法在BioProp語料上來評估。實驗結果顯示我們的方法勝過目前最先進的系統。此外，使用SRL模板後，在時間及記憶體之花費上亦大幅的減少，而且我們自動化生成之模板亦能幫助建立這些模板。我們認為本論文提出之方法可以透過增加新的SRL模板例如：由生物學家手動寫的模板，而得到進一步的提升，而且本方法也為於需要處理大量SRL 語料時，提供一種可能的解法。 / Background: Biomedical semantic role labeling ( SRL ) is a natural language processing technique that expresses the sentences that describe biological processes as predicate-argument structures ( PASs ) . SRL usually suffers from the unbalanced problem of arguments and consuming time and memory on learning the dependencies between the arguments. Method: We constructed a Markov Logic Network ( MLN ) -based SRL system, and the system uses SRL patterns, which utilizes automatically generated approaches, to simultaneously recognize the constituents and candidates of semantic roles. Results and conclusions: Our method is evaluated on the BioProp corpus. The experimental result shows that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art system. Furthermore, after applying SRL patterns, the costs of the time and memory are greatly reduced, and our automatically generated patterns are helpful in the development of these patterns. We consider that our method can be further improved by adding new SRL patterns such as biological experts manually written patterns and it also provide a possible solution to process large SRL corpus.

多選題測驗試題已證明能有效地評估學生的學習成效，然而，以人為方式建立題庫是一件耗時費力的工作。藉由電腦高速運算的能力，電腦輔助產生試題系統能有效率地建置大規模的題庫，同時減少人為的干預而得以保持試題的隱密性。受惠於網路上充裕的文字資源，本研究發展一套克漏詞試題出題系統，利用既有的語料自動產生涵蓋各種不同主題的克漏詞試題。藉由分析歷屆大學入學考試的資料，系統可產生類似難度的模擬試題，並且得到出題人員在遴選測驗標的方面的規律性。在產生試題的過程中導入詞義辨析的演算法，利用詞典與selectional preference模型的輔助，分析句子中特定詞彙的語義，以擷取包含測驗編撰者所要測驗的詞義的句子，並以collocation為基礎的方法篩選誘答選項。實驗結果顯示系統可在每產生1.6道試題中，得到1道可用的試題。我們嘗試產生不同類型的試題，並將這套系統融入網路線上英文測驗的環境中，依學生的作答情形分析試題的鑑別度。 / Multiple-choice tests have proved to be an efficient tool for measuring students’ achievement. Manually constructing tests items, however, is a time- consuming and labor-intensive task. Harnessing the computing power of computers, computer-assisted item generation offers the possibility of creating large amount of items, thereby alleviating the problem of keeping the items secure. With the abundant text resource on the Web, this study develops a system capable of generating cloze items that cover a wide range of topics based on existing corpra. By analyzing training data from the College Entrance Examinations in Taiwan, we identify special regularities of the test items, and our system can generate items of similar style based on results of the analysis. We propose a word sense disambiguation-based method for locating sentences in which designated words carry specific senses, and apply collocation-based methods for selecting distractors. Experimental results indicate that our system was able to produce a usable item for every 1.6 items it returned. We try to create different types of items and integrate the reported item generator in a Web-based system for learning English. The outcome of on-line examinations is analyzed in order to estimate the item discrimination of the test items generated by our system.
