• Abstract: Event detection (ED) identifies and classifies event triggers from unstructured texts, serving as a fundamental task for information extraction. Despite the remarkable progress achieved in the past several years, most research efforts focus on detecting events from formal texts (e.g., news articles, Wikipedia documents, financial announcements). Moreover, the texts in each dataset are either from a single source or multiple yet relatively homogeneous sources. With massive amounts of user-generated text accumulating on the Web and inside enterprises, identifying meaningful events in these informal texts, usually from multiple heterogeneous sources, has become a problem of significant practical value. As a pioneering exploration that expands event detection to the scenarios involving informal and heterogeneous texts, we propose a new large-scale Chinese event detection dataset based on user reviews, text conversations, and phone conversations in a leading e-commerce platform for food service. We carefully investigate the proposed dataset's textual informality and multi-source heterogeneity characteristics by inspecting data samples quantitatively and qualitatively. Extensive experiments with state-of-the-art event detection methods verify the unique challenges posed by these characteristics, indicating that multi-source informal event detection remains an open problem and requires further efforts. Our benchmark and code are released at \url{https://github.com/myeclipse/MUSIED}.

  This paper introduces Emotion-textbfAware textbfMultimodal Fusion textbfPrompt textbfLtextbfEarning (textbfAMPLE) framework to address the above issue. This framework extracts emotional elements from texts by leveraging sentiment analysis tools. It then employs Multi-Head Cross-Attention (MCA) mechanisms and similarity-aware fusion methods to integrate multimodal data.

  "Detect Any Text" is an advanced paradigm that unifies scene text detection, layout analysis, and document page detection into a cohesive, end-to-end model. A pivotal innovation in DAT is the across-granularity interactive attention module, which significantly enhances the representation learning of text instances. Tests demonstrate that DAT achieves state-of-the-art performances across a variety of text-related benchmarks.

  Event Extraction (EE) seeks to derive information about specific incidents and their actors from the text. EE is useful in many domains such as building a knowledge base, information retrieval, summarization and online monitoring systems. COfEE consists of two hierarchy levels (event types and event sub-types) that include new categories relating to environmental issues, cyberspace, criminal activity and natural disasters.
