• Abstract summary: We construct SciEvents, a large-scale multi-event document-level dataset with a schema tailored for scientific domain. Then, we propose EXCEEDS, a novel end-to-end scientific event extraction framework by storing dense nuggets in a grid matrix. Experimental results demonstrate state-of-the-art performances of EXCEEDS on SciEvents.

• Abstract: It is crucial to utilize events to understand a specific domain. There are lots of research on event extraction in many domains such as news, finance and biology domain. However, scientific domain still lacks event extraction research, including comprehensive datasets and corresponding methods. Compared to other domains, scientific domain presents two characteristics: denser nuggets and more complex events. To solve the above problem, considering these two characteristics, we first construct SciEvents, a large-scale multi-event document-level dataset with a schema tailored for scientific domain. It has 2,508 documents and 24,381 events under refined annotation and quality control. Then, we propose EXCEEDS, a novel end-to-end scientific event extraction framework by storing dense nuggets in a grid matrix and simplifying complex event extraction into a dot construction and connection task. Experimental results demonstrate state-of-the-art performances of EXCEEDS on SciEvents. Additionally, we release SciEvents and EXCEEDS on GitHub.

• Grounding Partially-Defined Events in Multimodal Data [61.0063273919745]
  We introduce a multimodal formulation for partially-defined events and cast the extraction of these events as a three-stage span retrieval task. We propose a benchmark for this task, MultiVENT-G, that consists of 14.5 hours of densely annotated current event videos and 1,168 text documents, containing 22.8K labeled event-centric entities. Results illustrate the challenges that abstract event understanding poses and demonstrates promise in event-centric video-language systems.

  We introduce the Speech Event Extraction (SpeechEE) task and construct three synthetic training sets and one human-spoken test set. Compared to event extraction from text, SpeechEE poses greater challenges mainly due to complex speech signals that are continuous and have no word boundaries. Our method brings significant improvements on all datasets, achieving a maximum F1 gain of 10.7%.
