Abstract

To address the issues of missing textual-visual semantics and unclear multimodal representation semantics in multimodal named entity recognition methods, this paper proposed a method of textual-visual semantic enhancement for multimodal named entity recognition. In this method, it used various pre-trained models to extract text features, character features, regional visual features, image keywords and visual labels, in order to comprehensively describe the semantic information of image-text data. It adopted the Transformer and cross-modal attention mechanism to mine the complementary semantic relationships between image-text features, guiding feature fusion, thereby generating semantically complete text representations and semantically enhanced multimodal representations. By integrating boundary detection, entity type detection, and named entity recognition tasks, it constructed a multi-task label decoder, which could perform fine-grained semantic decoding of input features, to improve the semantic accuracy of predicted features. It used this decoder to jointly decode text representations and multimodal representations to obtain globally optimal predicted labels. A large number of experimental results on the Twitter-2015 and Twitter-2017 benchmark datasets show that the proposed method has increased the average F1 score by 1.00% and 1.41% respectively, which indicates that the model has a strong capability for named entity recognition.
