Theses and Dissertations

This thesis investigates the application of Few-Shot Learning (FSL) using Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning (MAML) to enhance Named Entity Recognition (NER) within the domain of Natural Language Processing (NLP), specifically focusing on chemical datasets. The primary challenge addressed is the impracticality of relying on extensive annotated datasets, especially in specialized fields like chemistry. The research primarily explores the concept of Few-Shot Learning, aiming to train models on minimal data while maintaining performance across diverse tasks. It delves into the N-way K-shot methodology, where "N" represents the number of classes and "K" signifies the number of examples per class. This approach is further …
