Conventional deep learning-based Relation Classification (RC) methods heavily rely on large-scale training dataset and fail to generalize to unseen classes when training data is scant. This work concentrates on RC tasks in few-shot scenarios in which models classify the unlabelled samples given only few labeled samples. Existing few-shot RC models consider the dataset as a series of individual instances and have not fully utilized interaction information among them. Interaction information is conducive to indicate the important areas and produce discriminating representations. So this paper proposes a novel interactive attention network (IAN) which uses inter-instance and intra-instance interactive information to classify the relations. Inter-instance interactive information is first introduced to solve the low-resource problem by capturing the semantic relevance between an instance pair. Intra-instance interactive …
