Knowledge discovery aims at bringing out coherent groups of entities. It is usually based on clustering which necessitates defining a notion of similarity between the relevant entities. In this paper, we propose to divert a supervised machine learning technique (namely Conditional Random Fields, widely used for supervised labeling tasks) in order to calculate, indirectly and without supervision, similarities among text sequences. Our approach consists in generating artificial labeling problems on the data to reveal regularities between entities through their labeling. We describe how this framework can be implemented and experiment it on two information extraction/discovery tasks. The results demonstrate the usefulness of this unsupervised approach, and open many avenues for defining similarities for complex representations of textual data.
