Comparing Multi-label Classification with Reinforcement Learning for Summarisation of Time-series Data (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gkatzia, D., Hastie, H., & Lemon, O. (2014, June). Comparing Multi-label Classification with Reinforcement Learning for Summarisation of Time-series Data. Presented at The 52nd Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics, Baltimore

We present a novel approach for automatic report generation from time-series data, in the context of student feedback generation. Our proposed methodology treats content selection as a multi-label (ML)
classification problem, which takes as input ti... Read More about Comparing Multi-label Classification with Reinforcement Learning for Summarisation of Time-series Data.
