- Abstract: Past work has studied event prediction and event language modeling, sometimes
mediated through structured representations of knowledge in the form of event
schemas. Such schemas can lead to explainable predictions and forecasting of
unseen events given incomplete information. In this work, we look at the
process of creating such schemas to describe complex events. We use large
language models (LLMs) to draft schemas directly in natural language, which can
be further refined by human curators as necessary. Our focus is on whether we
can achieve sufficient diversity and recall of key events and whether we can
produce the schemas in a sufficiently descriptive style. We show that large
language models are able to achieve moderate recall against schemas taken from
two different datasets, with even better results when multiple prompts and
multiple samples are combined. Moreover, we show that textual entailment
methods can be used for both matching schemas to instances of events as well as
evaluating overlap between gold and predicted schemas. Our method paves the way
for easier distillation of event knowledge from large language model into
schemas.

We propose a compositional language model program for schema matching, comprised of candidate generation, refinement and confidence scoring.
Matchmaker self-improves in a zero-shot manner without the need for labeled demonstrations.
Empirically, we demonstrate on real-world medical schema matching benchmarks that Matchmaker outperforms previous ML-based approaches.

We treat event schemas as a form of commonsense knowledge that can be derived from large language models (LLMs)
We design an incremental prompting and verification method to break down the construction of a complex event graph into three stages.
Compared to directly using LLMs to generate a linearized graph, our method can generate large and complex schemas with 7.2% F1 improvement in temporal relations and 31.0% F1 improvement in hierarchical relations.

Event schema provides a conceptual, structural and formal language to represent events and model the world event knowledge.
It is challenging to automatically induce high-quality and high-coverage event schemas due to the open nature of real-world events, the diversity of event expressions, and the sparsity of event knowledge.
We propose a new paradigm for event schema induction -- knowledge harvesting from large-scale pre-trained language models.

We present a new approach in which large language models are utilized to generate source documents that allow predicting, given a high-level event definition, the specific events, arguments, and relations between them.
Using our model, complete schemas on any topic can be generated on-the-fly without any manual data collection, i.e., in a zero-shot manner.

Repeated interactions at test-time with a single model, or the composition of multiple models together, further expands capabilities.
Cases with control flow and dynamic structure require techniques from probabilistic programming.
We formalize several existing techniques from this perspective, including scratchpads / chain of thought, verifiers, STaR, selection-inference, and tool use.
