• Abstract: Event coreference resolution(ECR) is an important task in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and nearly all the existing approaches to this task rely on event argument information. However, these methods tend to suffer from error propagation from the stage of event argument extraction. Besides, not every event mention contains all arguments of an event, and argument information may confuse the model that events have arguments to detect event coreference in real text. Furthermore, the context information of an event is useful to infer the coreference between events. Thus, in order to reduce the errors propagated from event argument extraction and use context information effectively, we propose a multi-loss neural network model that does not need any argument information to do the within-document event coreference resolution task and achieve a significant performance than the state-of-the-art methods.

  MAVEN-Arg is the first all-in-one dataset supporting event detection, event argument extraction, and event relation extraction. As an EAE benchmark, MAVEN-Arg offers three main advantages: (1) a comprehensive schema covering 162 event types and 612 argument roles, all with expert-written definitions and examples; (2) a large data scale, containing 98,591 events and 290,613 arguments obtained with laborious human annotation; and (3) the exhaustive annotation supporting all task variants of EAE.

• Semantic Pivoting Model for Effective Event Detection [19.205550116466604]
  Event Detection aims to identify and classify mentions of event instances from unstructured articles. Existing techniques for event detection only use homogeneous one-hot vectors to represent the event type classes, ignoring the fact that the semantic meaning of the types is important to the task. We propose a Semantic Pivoting Model for Effective Event Detection (SPEED), which explicitly incorporates prior information during training and captures semantically meaningful correlations between input and events.

  We introduce a new global neural generation-based framework for document-level event argument extraction. We use a document memory store to record the contextual event information and leverage it to implicitly and explicitly help with decoding of arguments for later events. Empirical results show that our framework outperforms prior methods substantially.

  Event Argument extraction refers to the task of extracting structured information from unstructured text for a particular event of interest. Most of the existing works model this task at a sentence level, restricting the context to a local scope. We propose an external knowledge aided approach to infuse document-level event information to aid the extraction of complex event arguments.
