• Title: Revealing the Myth of Higher-Order Inference in Coreference Resolution
• Authors: Liyan Xu, Jinho D. Choi
• Abstract summary: This paper analyzes the impact of higher-order inference (HOI) on the task of coreference resolution. We implement an end-to-end coreference system as well as four HOI approaches, attended antecedent, entity, span clustering, and cluster merging. We find that given a high-performing encoder such as SpanBERT, the impact of HOI is negative to marginal.

• Abstract: This paper analyzes the impact of higher-order inference (HOI) on the task of coreference resolution. HOI has been adapted by almost all recent coreference resolution models without taking much investigation on its true effectiveness over representation learning. To make a comprehensive analysis, we implement an end-to-end coreference system as well as four HOI approaches, attended antecedent, entity equalization, span clustering, and cluster merging, where the latter two are our original methods. We find that given a high-performing encoder such as SpanBERT, the impact of HOI is negative to marginal, providing a new perspective of HOI to this task. Our best model using cluster merging shows the Avg-F1 of 80.2 on the CoNLL 2012 shared task dataset in English.

  Coreference resolution systems need to tackle two main tasks. One task is to detect all of the potential mentions, the other is to learn the linking of an antecedent for each possible mention. We propose a hybrid rule-neural coreference resolution system based on actor-critic learning.

  Active learning frameworks aim to reduce the cost of data annotation by actively requesting the labeling for the most informative data points. Some proposed approaches include uncertainty-based techniques, geometric methods, implicit combination of uncertainty-based and geometric approaches. We present an innovative integration of recent progress in both uncertainty-based and geometric frameworks to enable an efficient exploration/exploitation trade-off in sample selection strategy. Our framework provides two advantages: (1) accurate posterior estimation, and (2) tune-able trade-off between computational overhead and higher accuracy.

  We study the problem of novel human-object interaction (HOI) detection, aiming at improving the generalization ability of the model to unseen scenarios. The challenge mainly stems from the large compositional space of objects and predicates, which leads to the lack of sufficient training data for all the object-predicate combinations. We propose a unified framework of adversarial domain generalization to learn object-invariant features for predicate prediction.
