In this paper, we introduce a new method, called LLMaxent, to cross-domain suggestion classification. LLMaxent is an approach to lifelong machine learning using maximum entropy (Maxent) method. Based on the main idea of lifelong learning, that is retaining the knowledge learned from past tasks and using it to help future learning, we build a classifier can use labeled data in existed domains for suggestion classification in a new domain. The experimental results show that the proposed novel model can improve the performance of cross-domain suggestion classification. This is the first study of lifelong machine learning using Maxent and our method is not only useful for suggestion classification but also for cross-domain text classification in general. date: 2018-03 date_type: published official_url: https://www.cicling.org/2018/accepted.html full_text_status: none pres_type: paper event_title: 19th International Conference on Computational Linguistics and Intelligent Text Processing event_location: Hanoi, Vietnam event_dates: 18-24 March 2018 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE funders: Vietnam National University, Hanoi projects: QG.16.34 citation: Ngo, Thi Lan and Vu, Van Tu and Hideaki, Takeda and Pham, Bao Son and Phan, Xuan Hieu (2018) Lifelong Learning MaxEnt for Suggestion Classification.
