• Abstract summary: PerSenT is a dataset of crowd-sourced annotations of the sentiment expressed by the authors towards the main entities in news articles. The dataset also includes paragraph-level sentiment annotations to provide more fine-grained supervision for the task. We release this dataset with 5.3k documents and 38k paragraphs covering 3.2k unique entities as a challenge in entity sentiment analysis.

• Abstract: We introduce PerSenT, a dataset of crowd-sourced annotations of the sentiment expressed by the authors towards the main entities in news articles. The dataset also includes paragraph-level sentiment annotations to provide more fine-grained supervision for the task. Our benchmarks of multiple strong baselines show that this is a difficult classification task. The results also suggest that simply fine-tuning document-level representations from BERT isn't adequate for this task. Making paragraph-level decisions and aggregating them over the entire document is also ineffective. We present empirical and qualitative analyses that illustrate the specific challenges posed by this dataset. We release this dataset with 5.3k documents and 38k paragraphs covering 3.2k unique entities as a challenge in entity sentiment analysis.

• Rethinking the Evaluation of Pre-trained Text-and-Layout Models from an Entity-Centric Perspective [15.222536348615087]
  EC-FUNSD is an entity-centric benckmark designed for the evaluation of semantic entity recognition and entity linking on visually-rich documents. This dataset contains diverse formats of document layouts and annotations of semantic-driven entities and their relations. Experiment results demonstrate that state-of-the-art PTLMs exhibit overfitting tendencies on the prevailing benchmarks, as their performance sharply decrease when the dataset bias is removed.

  We propose a VAE-based topic modeling approach that performs ABSA using document-level supervision. Our approach allows for the detection of multiple aspects in a document, thereby allowing for the possibility of reasoning about how sentiment expressed through multiple aspects comes together to form an observable document-level sentiment.

  We propose an alternative approach to precisely and robustly extract key information from document images. We explicitly model entities as semantic points, i.e., center points of entities are enriched with semantic information describing the attributes and relationships of different entities. The proposed method can achieve significantly enhanced performance on entity labeling and linking, compared with previous state-of-the-art models.

  Document-level relation extraction (DocRE) aims to determine the relation between two entities from a document of multiple sentences. We propose a Sentence Estimation and Focusing (SIEF) framework for DocRE, where we design a sentence importance score and a sentence focusing loss. Experimental results on two domains show that our SIEF not only improves overall performance, but also makes DocRE models more robust.
