• Abstract: Relation ties, defined as the correlation and mutual exclusion between different relations, are critical for distant supervised relation extraction. Existing approaches model this property by greedily learning local dependencies. However, they are essentially limited by failing to capture the global topology structure of relation ties. As a result, they may easily fall into a locally optimal solution. To solve this problem, in this paper, we propose a novel force-directed graph based relation extraction model to comprehensively learn relation ties. Specifically, we first build a graph according to the global co-occurrence of relations. Then, we borrow the idea of Coulomb's Law from physics and introduce the concept of attractive force and repulsive force to this graph to learn correlation and mutual exclusion between relations. Finally, the obtained relation representations are applied as an inter-dependent relation classifier. Experimental results on a large scale benchmark dataset demonstrate that our model is capable of modeling global relation ties and significantly outperforms other baselines. Furthermore, the proposed force-directed graph can be used as a module to augment existing relation extraction systems and improve their performance.

  Relation extraction is essentially a text classification problem, which can be tackled by fine-tuning a pre-trained language model (LM) Existing approaches therefore solve the problem in an indirect way: they fine-tune an LM to learn embeddings of the head and tail entities, and then predict the relationship from these entity embeddings. Our hypothesis in this paper is that relation extraction models can be improved by capturing relationships in a more direct way.

• Document-Level Relation Extraction with Relation Correlation Enhancement [10.684005956288347]
  Document-level relation extraction (DocRE) is a task that focuses on identifying relations between entities within a document. Existing DocRE models often overlook the correlation between relations and lack a quantitative analysis of relation correlations. We propose a relation graph method, which aims to explicitly exploit the interdependency among relations.

  We introduce a counterfactual question: "would the relation still exist if the neighborhood of entities became different from observation?" With a carefully designed instantiation of a causal model on the knowledge graph, we generate the counterfactual relations to answer the question. We incorporate the created counterfactual relations with the GNN-based framework on KGs to augment their learning of entity pair representations.

  TACT is inspired by the observation that the semantic correlation between two relations is highly correlated to their topological knowledge graphs. We categorize all relation pairs into several topological patterns then propose a structure in Correlation Network (RCN) to learn the importance of the different patterns for inductive link prediction. Experiments demonstrate that TACT can effectively model semantic correlations between relations, and significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods on benchmark datasets.
