With the rapid development of Internet and the widely usage of smart devices, massive multimedia data are generated, collected, stored and shared on the Internet. This trend makes cross-modal retrieval problem become a hot issue in this years. Many existing works pay attentions on correlation learning to generate a common subspace for cross-modal correlation measurement, and others uses adversarial learning technique to abate the heterogeneity of multi-modal data. However, very few works combine correlation learning and adversarial learning to bridge the inter-modal semantic gap and diminish cross-modal heterogeneity. This paper propose a novel cross-modal retrieval method, named ALSCOR, which is an end-to-end framework to integrate cross-modal representation learning, correlation learning and adversarial. CCA model, accompanied by two representation model, VisNet and TxtNet is proposed to capture non-linear correlation. Beside, intra-modal classifier and modality classifier are used to learn intra-modal discrimination and minimize the inter-modal heterogeneity. Comprehensive experiments are conducted on three benchmark datasets. The results demonstrate that the proposed ALSCOR has better performance than the state-of-the-arts.

Relation classification is an important task in the field of natural language processing, and it is one of the important steps in constructing a knowledge graph, which can greatly reduce the cost of constructing a knowledge graph. The Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) is an effective model for accurate relation classification, which models the dependency tree of textual instances to extract the semantic features of relation mentions. Previous GCN based methods treat each node equally. However, the contribution of different words to express a certain relation is different, especially the entity mentions in the sentence. In this paper, a novel GCN based relation classifier is propose, which treats the entity nodes as two global nodes in the dependency tree. These two global nodes directly connect with other nodes, which can aggregate information from the whole tree with only one convolutional layer. In this way, the method can not only simplify the complexity of the model, but also generate expressive relation representation. Experimental results on two widely used data sets, SemEval-2010 Task 8 and TACRED, show that our model outperforms all the compared baselines in this paper, which illustrates that the model can effectively utilize the dependencies between nodes and improve the performance of relation classification.
