• Abstract: Cross-document Relation Extraction aims to predict the relation between target entities located in different documents. In this regard, the dominant models commonly retain useful information for relation prediction via bridge entities, which allows the model to elaborately capture the intrinsic interdependence between target entities. However, these studies ignore the non-bridge entities, each of which co-occurs with only one target entity and offers the semantic association between target entities for relation prediction. Besides, the commonly-used dataset--CodRED contains substantial NA instances, leading to the prediction bias during inference. To address these issues, in this paper, we propose a novel graph-based cross-document RE model with non-bridge entity enhancement and prediction debiasing. Specifically, we use a unified entity graph to integrate numerous non-bridge entities with target entities and bridge entities, modeling various associations between them, and then use a graph recurrent network to encode this graph. Finally, we introduce a novel debiasing strategy to calibrate the original prediction distribution. Experimental results on the closed and open settings show that our model significantly outperforms all baselines, including the GPT-3.5-turbo and InstructUIE, achieving state-of-the-art performance. Particularly, our model obtains 66.23% and 55.87% AUC points in the official leaderboard\footnote{\url{https://codalab.lisn.upsaclay.fr/competitions/3770#results}} under the two settings, respectively, ranking the first place in all submissions since December 2023.

  Knowledge Graph alignment aims to integrate knowledge from multiple sources to address the limitations of individual Knowledge Graphs. Existing models primarily emphasize the linkage of cross-graph entities but overlook aligning relations across KGs. We propose a novel Expectation-Maximization-based model, EREM, which iteratively optimize both sub-tasks.

  Link prediction, a fundamental task on graphs, has proven indispensable in various applications, e.g., friend recommendation, protein analysis, and drug interaction prediction. Evidence in existing literature underscores the absence of a universally best algorithm suitable for all datasets. We recognize three fundamental factors critical to link prediction: local structural proximity, global structural proximity, and feature proximity.

  We investigate a previously overlooked phenomenon: in many cases, a densely connected, complementary graph can be found for the original graph. The denser graph may share nodes with the original graph, which offers a natural bridge for transferring selective, meaningful knowledge. We identify this setting as Graph Intersection-induced Transfer Learning (GITL), which is motivated by practical applications in e-commerce or academic co-authorship predictions.

Experimental results on two domains show that our SIEF not only improves overall performance, but also makes DocRE models more robust.
