Character-based sequence labeling framework is flexible and efficient for
Chinese word segmentation (CWS). Recently, many character-based neural models
have been applied to CWS. While they obtain good performance, they have two
obvious weaknesses. The first is that they heavily rely on manually designed
bigram feature, i.e. they are not good at capturing n-gram features
automatically. The second is that they make no use of full word information.
For the first weakness, we propose a convolutional neural model, which is able
to capture rich n-gram features without any feature engineering. For the second
one, we propose an effective approach to integrate the proposed model with word
embeddings. We evaluate the model on two benchmark datasets: PKU and MSR.
Without any feature engineering, the model obtains competitive performance --
95.7% on PKU and 97.3% on MSR. Armed with word embeddings, the model achieves
state-of-the-art performance on both datasets -- 96.5% on PKU and 98.0% on MSR,
without using any external labeled resource.
