Existing toponym recognition methods with state-of-the-art performance mainly leverage supervised learning (i.e., deep-learning-based approaches) with parameters learned from massive, labeled datasets that must be annotated manually. This is a great inconvenience when model training needs to fit different domain texts, especially those of social media messaging. To address this issue, this article proposes a weakly supervised Chinese toponym recognition (ChineseTR) architecture that leverages a training dataset creator that generates training datasets automatically based on word collections and associated word frequencies from various texts and an extension recognizer that employs a basic bidirectional recurrent neural network based on particular features designed for toponym recognition. The results show that the proposed ChineseTR achieves a 0.76 F1 score in a corpus with a 0.718 out-of-vocabulary rate and a 0.903 in-vocabulary rate. All comparative experiments demonstrate that ChineseTR is an effective and scalable architecture that recognizes toponyms.

GazPNE: annotation-free deep learning for place name extraction from microblogs leveraging gazetteer and synthetic data by rules / Xuke Hu in International journal of geographical information science IJGIS, vol 36 n° 2 (February 2022)

A crucial prerequisite to location extraction is place name extraction. In this paper, we present GazPNE: a hybrid approach to place name extraction which fuses rules, gazetteers, and deep learning techniques without requiring any manually annotated data. The core of the approach is to learn the intrinsic characteristics of multi-word place names with deep learning from gazetteers. Specifically, GazPNE consists of a rule-based system to select n-grams from the microblogs that potentially contain place names, and a C-LSTM model that decides if the selected n-gram is a place name or not. The C-LSTM is trained on 388.1 million examples containing 6.8 million positive examples with US and Indian place names extracted from OpenStreetMap and 381.3 million negative examples synthesized by rules. We evaluate GazPNE against the SoTA on a manually annotated 4,500 tweet dataset which contains 9,026 place names from three foods: 2016 in Louisiana (US), 2016 in Houston (US), and 2015 in Chennai (India). GazPNE achieves SotA performance on the test data with an F1 of 0.84.

Generating geographical location descriptions with spatial templates: a salient toponym driven approach / Mark M. Hall in International journal of geographical information science IJGIS, vol 36 n° 1 (January 2022)

Typically location descriptions combine references to named geographical features with vague spatial relational terms, such as near, north of and at that relate locations to the features. Here we describe a system for generating location descriptions, that combines spatial templates, that model the applicability of different spatial relations relative to a reference location, with toponyms in the vicinity of the described location that are selected according to aspects of salience. The toponyms are retrieved from a gazetteer service based on OpenStreetMap for which we create a hierarchical feature classification scheme to facilitate selection of toponyms according to distinctiveness of their feature types and other aspects of salience. The advantages of the approach are demonstrated in a user study, relative to an existing state of the art system and to other baseline approaches that include manually created captions and the automated methods of two widely used photo captioning systems.

Deep learning for toponym resolution: Geocoding based on pairs of toponyms / Jacques Fize in ISPRS International journal of geo-information, vol 10 n° 12 (December 2021)  

Public [article]  inISPRS International journal of geo-information > vol 10 n° 12 (December 2021) . - n° 818 Titre : Deep learning for toponym resolution: Geocoding based on pairs of toponyms Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Jacques Fize, Auteur ; Ludovic Moncla , Auteur ; Bruno Martins, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 818 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Toponymie [Termes IGN] analyse de groupement [Termes IGN] apprentissage profond [Termes IGN] échantillonnage [Termes IGN] géocodage [Termes IGN] matrice de co-occurrence [Termes IGN] site wiki [Termes IGN] toponyme [Termes IGN] zone d'intérêt Résumé : (auteur) Geocoding aims to assign unambiguous locations (i.e., geographic coordinates) to place names (i.e., toponyms) referenced within documents (e.g., within spreadsheet tables or textual paragraphs). This task comes with multiple challenges, such as dealing with referent ambiguity (multiple places with a same name) or reference database completeness. In this work, we propose a geocoding approach based on modeling pairs of toponyms, which returns latitude-longitude coordinates. One of the input toponyms will be geocoded, and the second one is used as context to reduce ambiguities. The proposed approach is based on a deep neural network that uses Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) units to produce representations from sequences of character n-grams. To train our model, we use toponym co-occurrences collected from different contexts, namely textual (i.e., co-occurrences of toponyms in Wikipedia articles) and geographical (i.e., inclusion and proximity of places based on Geonames data). Experiments based on multiple geographical areas of interest—France, United States, Great-Britain, Nigeria, Argentina and Japan—were conducted. Results show that models trained with co-occurrence data obtained a higher geocoding accuracy, and that proximity relations in combination with co-occurrences can help to obtain a slightly higher accuracy in geographical areas with fewer places in the data sources.

The corpus collected by the Réseau des acteurs de l’histoire et la mémoire de l’immigration (RAHMI) contains oral interviews about Spanish Republicans journeys during Spanish Civil War and World War II. These life stories quote place names corresponding to proper name (Npr) or common name (Nc) and which can be qualified or associated to non-geographical nouns, adjectives and expressions. Methods from natural language processing have been used to automatically extract and characterize these pieces of informations into annotations. The objective of the presented work is to analyse the geographical aspects of places and associated features, and to propose cartographical displays illustrating life stories and supporting analysis. Distribution of quoted Npr place names was first studied. It enabled targeting relevant spatial scales and so mapping extents for the corpus. Second, features of Npr places about their type (administrative, topographic) and their spatial target based on assocations with Nc have been synthetized. Then perception were allocated to Npr, falling into the three values of polarity positive, negative or neutral. Spatial patterns of each value have been displayed and interpreted. Summary of the annotations, analysis and created maps offer insights into the corpus driven by the mentioned places. Based on individual testimonies, it may help further interpretation and researches about this historical period.
