• Abstract summary: We propose UniRel to address the challenges of capturing rich correlations between entities and relations. Specifically, we unify representations of entities and relations by jointly encoding them within a relationald natural language sequence. With comprehensive experiments on two popular triple extraction datasets, we demonstrate that UniRel is more effective computationally efficient.

• Abstract: Relational triple extraction is challenging for its difficulty in capturing rich correlations between entities and relations. Existing works suffer from 1) heterogeneous representations of entities and relations, and 2) heterogeneous modeling of entity-entity interactions and entity-relation interactions. Therefore, the rich correlations are not fully exploited by existing works. In this paper, we propose UniRel to address these challenges. Specifically, we unify the representations of entities and relations by jointly encoding them within a concatenated natural language sequence, and unify the modeling of interactions with a proposed Interaction Map, which is built upon the off-the-shelf self-attention mechanism within any Transformer block. With comprehensive experiments on two popular relational triple extraction datasets, we demonstrate that UniRel is more effective and computationally efficient.

  We propose a Co-Attention network for joint entity and relation extraction. Our approach includes adopting a parallel encoding strategy to learn separate representations for each subtask. At the core of our approach is the co-attention module that captures two-way interaction between the two subtasks.

  We propose HIORE, a new method for unified entity relation extraction. The key insight is to leverage the complex association among word pairs, which contains richer information than the first-order word-by-word interactions. Experiments show that HIORE achieves the state-of-the-art performance on relation extraction and an improvement of 1.11.8 F1 points over the prior best unified model.

Experiments show that ERE on MAVEN-ERE is quite challenging, and considering relation interactions with joint learning can improve performances.

  We introduce the task setting of Zero-Shot Relation Triplet Extraction (ZeroRTE) Given an input sentence, each extracted triplet consists of the head entity, relation label, and tail entity where the relation label is not seen at the training stage. We propose to synthesize relation examples by prompting language models to generate structured texts.

  We propose a new paradigm of Relation Extraction (RE) that considers as a whole the predictions of all relations in the same context.
