Abstract

A method for performing one or more natural language understanding semantic tasks augmented with syntactic information includes parsing a written or spoken utterance comprising a plurality of tokens into a full syntactic tree for the utterance; encoding each token in the utterance using a word encoder based on deep-learning network; encoding using a graph-based neural network, for each token, a syntactic subtree in which the token is a head; fusing each encoded token with the encoded syntactic subtree corresponding to that encoded token; and providing the fused encodings to a semantic neural network for performing one or more semantic tasks.
