Modularized and Attention-Based Recurrent Convolutional Neural Network for Automatic Academic Paper Aspect Scoring

摘要

Thousands of academic papers are submitted at top venues each year. Manual audits are time-consuming and laborious. And the result may be influenced by human factors. This paper investigates a modularized and attention-based recurrent convolutional network model to represent academic paper and predict aspect scores. This model treats input text as module-document hierarchies, uses attention pooling CNN and LSTM to represent text, and outputs prediction with a linear layer. Empirical results on PeerRead data show that this model give the best performance among the baseline models.
