• Abstract: Abstract Meaning Representation parsing is a sentence-to-graph prediction task where target nodes are not explicitly aligned to sentence tokens. However, since graph nodes are semantically based on one or more sentence tokens, implicit alignments can be derived. Transition-based parsers operate over the sentence from left to right, capturing this inductive bias via alignments at the cost of limited expressiveness. In this work, we propose a transition-based system that combines hard-attention over sentences with a target-side action pointer mechanism to decouple source tokens from node representations and address alignments. We model the transitions as well as the pointer mechanism through straightforward modifications within a single Transformer architecture. Parser state and graph structure information are efficiently encoded using attention heads. We show that our action-pointer approach leads to increased expressiveness and attains large gains (+1.6 points) against the best transition-based AMR parser in very similar conditions. While using no graph re-categorization, our single model yields the second best Smatch score on AMR 2.0 (81.8), which is further improved to 83.4 with silver data and ensemble decoding.

• Graph as Point Set [31.448841287258116]
  This paper introduces a novel graph-to-set conversion method that transforms interconnected nodes into a set of independent points. It enables using set encoders to learn from graphs, thereby significantly expanding the design space of Graph Neural Networks. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, we introduce Point Set Transformer (PST), a transformer architecture that accepts a point set converted from a graph as input.

• Guiding AMR Parsing with Reverse Graph Linearization [45.37129580211495]
  We propose a novel Reverse Graph Linearization (RGL) framework for AMR parsing. RGL defines both default and reverse linearization orders of an AMR graph, where most structures at the back part of the default order appear at the front part of the reversed order and vice versa. Our analysis shows that our proposed method significantly mitigates the problem of structure loss accumulation, outperforming the previously best AMR parsing model by 0.8 and 0.5 Smatch scores on the AMR 2.0 and AMR 3.0 dataset, respectively.

  We introduce a new framework named Discrete Graph Auto-Encoder (DGAE) We first use a permutation-equivariant auto-encoder to convert graphs into sets of discrete latent node representations. In the second step, we sort the sets of discrete latent representations and learn their distribution with a specifically designed auto-regressive model.

  We explore the integration of general pre-trained sequence-to-sequence language models and a structure-aware transition-based approach. We propose a simplified transition set, designed to better exploit pre-trained language models for structured fine-tuning. We show that the proposed parsing architecture retains the desirable properties of previous transition-based approaches, while being simpler and reaching the new state of the art for AMR 2.0, without the need for graph re-categorization.
