• Abstract: Understanding event descriptions is a central aspect of language processing, but current approaches focus overwhelmingly on single sentences or documents. Aggregating information about an event \emph{across documents} can offer a much richer understanding. To this end, we present FAMuS, a new corpus of Wikipedia passages that \emph{report} on some event, paired with underlying, genre-diverse (non-Wikipedia) \emph{source} articles for the same event. Events and (cross-sentence) arguments in both report and source are annotated against FrameNet, providing broad coverage of different event types. We present results on two key event understanding tasks enabled by FAMuS: \emph{source validation} -- determining whether a document is a valid source for a target report event -- and \emph{cross-document argument extraction} -- full-document argument extraction for a target event from both its report and the correct source article. We release both FAMuS and our models to support further research.

• Harvesting Events from Multiple Sources: Towards a Cross-Document Event Extraction Paradigm [33.737981167605575]
  This paper proposes the task of cross-document event extraction (CDEE) to integrate event information from multiple documents and provide a comprehensive perspective on events. We construct a novel cross-document event extraction dataset, namely CLES, which contains 20,059 documents and 37,688 mention-level events. Our CDEE pipeline achieves about 72% F1 in end-to-end cross-document event extraction, suggesting the challenge of this task.

  GenEARL is a training-free generative framework that harnesses the power of modern generative models to understand event task descriptions. We show that GenEARL outperforms the contrastive pretraining (CLIP) baseline by 9.4% and 14.2% accuracy for zero-shot EARL on the M2E2 and SwiG datasets.

  We propose the Rich Event Prediction (REP) framework for script event prediction. REP contains an event extractor to extract such information from texts. The core component of the predictor is a transformer-based event encoder to flexibly deal with an arbitrary number of arguments.

• Dynamic Global Memory for Document-level Argument Extraction [63.314514124716936]
  We introduce a new global neural generation-based framework for document-level event argument extraction. We use a document memory store to record the contextual event information and leverage it to implicitly and explicitly help with decoding of arguments for later events. Empirical results show that our framework outperforms prior methods substantially.

  Document-level Event Extraction (DEE) is particularly tricky due to the two challenges it poses: scattering-arguments and multi-events. We propose a method called HRE, where DEE is decomposed into two iterative stages, rough reading and elaborate reading. Experiment results show the superiority of HRE over prior competitive methods.

  Event Argument extraction refers to the task of extracting structured information from unstructured text for a particular event of interest. Most of the existing works model this task at a sentence level, restricting the context to a local scope. We propose an external knowledge aided approach to infuse document-level event information to aid the extraction of complex event arguments.

By utilizing images, we extract 21.4% more event mentions than traditional text-only methods.
