Abstract
Techniques for identifying attributes in a sentence and determining a number of attributes to be associated with the sentence are described. The techniques employ an offline training portion, an online prediction portion, and an attribute identification algorithm. The offline training portion utilizes relationships between attributes within sentences input to the offline training portion to improve attribute identification of the attribute identification algorithm. The online prediction portion predicts, for each sentence input, the attributes of the sentence, and the number of attributes the sentence is associated with by employing the attribute identification algorithm.
