CDSM: Cascaded Deep Semantic Matching on Textual Graphs Leveraging Ad-hoc Neighbor Selection

Deep semantic matching aims to discriminate the relationship between documents based on deep neural networks. In recent years, it becomes increasingly popular to organize documents with a graph structure, then leverage both the intrinsic document features and the extrinsic neighbor features to derive discrimination. Most of the existing works mainly care about how to utilize the presented neighbors, whereas limited effort is made to filter appropriate neighbors. We argue that the neighbor features could be highly noisy and partially useful. Thus, a lack of effective neighbor selection will not only incur a great deal of unnecessary computation cost, but also restrict the matching accuracy severely. In this work, we propose a novel framework, Cascaded Deep Semantic Matching (CDSM), for accurate and efficient semantic matching on textual graphs. CDSM is highlighted for its two-stage workflow. In the first stage, a lightweight CNN-based ad-hod neighbor selector is deployed to filter useful neighbors for the matching task with a small computation cost. We design both one-step and multi-step selection methods. In the second stage, a high-capacity graph-based matching network is employed to compute fine-grained relevance scores based on the well-selected neighbors. It is worth noting that CDSM is a generic framework which accommodates most of the mainstream graph-based semantic matching networks. The major challenge is how the selector can learn to discriminate the neighbors usefulness which has no explicit labels. To cope with this problem, we design a weak-supervision strategy for optimization, where we train the graph-based matching network at first and then the ad-hoc neighbor selector is learned on top of the annotations from the matching network.
