• Abstract: Semantic role labeling (SRL) is a central natural language processing (NLP) task aiming to understand the semantic roles within texts, facilitating a wide range of downstream applications. While SRL has garnered extensive and enduring research, there is currently a lack of a comprehensive survey that thoroughly organizes and synthesizes the field. This paper aims to review the entire research trajectory of the SRL community over the past two decades. We begin by providing a complete definition of SRL. To offer a comprehensive taxonomy, we categorize SRL methodologies into four key perspectives: model architectures, syntax feature modeling, application scenarios, and multi-modal extensions. Further, we discuss SRL benchmarks, evaluation metrics, and paradigm modeling approaches, while also exploring practical applications across various domains. Finally, we analyze future research directions in SRL, addressing the evolving role of SRL in the age of large language models (LLMs) and its potential impact on the broader NLP landscape. We maintain a public repository and consistently update related resources at: https://github.com/DreamH1gh/Awesome-SRL

  Large language models (LLMs) emerge as a promising avenue to augment reinforcement learning (RL) in aspects such as multi-task learning, sample efficiency, and high-level task planning. We propose a structured taxonomy to systematically categorize LLMs' functionalities in RL, including four roles: information processor, reward designer, decision-maker, and generator.

  We cast the development of better RL algorithms as a machine learning problem itself in a process called meta-RL. We discuss how, at a high level, meta-RL research can be clustered based on the presence of a task distribution and the learning budget available for each individual task. We conclude by presenting the open problems on the path to making meta-RL part of the standard toolbox for a deep RL practitioner.

• Syntax Role for Neural Semantic Role Labeling [77.5166510071142]
  Semantic role labeling (SRL) is dedicated to recognizing the semantic predicate-argument structure of a sentence. Previous studies in terms of traditional models have shown syntactic information can make remarkable contributions to SRL performance. Recent neural SRL studies show that syntax information becomes much less important for neural semantic role labeling.
