• Abstract: Semantic role labeling (SRL) -- identifying the semantic relationships between a predicate and other constituents in the same sentence -- is a well-studied task in natural language understanding (NLU). However, many of these relationships are evident only at the level of the document, as a role for a predicate in one sentence may often be filled by an argument in a different one. This more general task, known as implicit semantic role labeling or argument linking, has received increased attention in recent years, as researchers have recognized its centrality to information extraction and NLU. This paper surveys the literature on argument linking and identifies several notable shortcomings of existing approaches that indicate the paths along which future research effort could most profitably be spent.

  Large language models (LLMs) have dramatically enhanced the field of language intelligence. LLMs leverage the intriguing chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning techniques, obliging them to formulate intermediate steps en route to deriving an answer. Recent research endeavors have extended CoT reasoning methodologies to nurture the development of autonomous language agents.

  Non-verbal predicates appear in the benchmarks we commonly use to measure progress in Semantic Role Labeling. We show that state-of-the-art systems are still incapable of transferring knowledge across different predicate types. We present a novel, manually-annotated challenge set designed to give equal importance to verbal, nominal, and adjectival predicate-argument structures.

  This paper presents a better approach for event extraction by explicitly utilizing the relationships of event arguments. We employ reinforcement learning and incremental learning to extract multiple arguments via a multi-turned, iterative process. Experimental results show that our approach consistently outperforms seven state-of-the-art event extraction methods.

  This paper introduces a high-order graph structure for the neural semantic role labeling model. It enables the model to explicitly consider not only the isolated predicate-argument pairs but also the interaction between the predicate-argument pairs. Experimental results on 7 languages of the CoNLL-2009 benchmark show that the high-order structural learning techniques are beneficial to the strong performing SRL models.

• Unsupervised Transfer of Semantic Role Models from Verbal to Nominal Domain [65.04669567781634]
  We investigate a transfer scenario where we assume role-annotated data for the source verbal domain but only unlabeled data for the target nominal domain. Our key assumption, enabling the transfer between the two domains, is that selectional preferences of a role do not strongly depend on whether the relation is triggered by a verb or a noun. The method substantially outperforms baselines, such as unsupervised and direct transfer' methods, on the English CoNLL-2009 dataset.
