Abstract
Information about the content structure of a
document is largely ignored by current text
analysis applications such as information extraction
and sentiment analysis. This stands
in contrast to the linguistic intuition that rich
contextual information should benefit such applications.
We present a framework which
combines a supervised text analysis application
with the induction of latent content structure.
Both of these elements are learned
jointly using the EM algorithm. The induced
content structure is learned from a large unannotated
corpus and biased by the underlying
text analysis task. We demonstrate that
exploiting content structure yields significant
improvements over approaches that rely only
on local context.
