چکیده

Event coreference is an important task for full text analysis. However, previous work uses a variety of approaches, sources and evaluation, making the literature confusing and the results incommensurate. We provide a description of the differences to facilitate future research. Second, we present a supervised method for event coreference resolution that uses a rich feature set and propagates information alternatively between events and their arguments, adapting appropriately for each type of argument.

"Bag of Events" Approach to Event Coreference Resolution. Supervised Classification of Event Templates

We propose a new robust two-step approach to cross-textual event coreference resolution on news articles. The approach makes explicit use of event and discourse structure thereby compensating for implications of the Gricean Maxim of quantity. News follows the principle of language economy. Information tends not to be repeated within discourse boarders. This phenomenon poses a challenge for mode...

Joint Inference over a Lightly Supervised Information Extraction Pipeline: Towards Event Coreference Resolution for Resource-Scarce Languages

We address two key challenges in end-to-end event coreference resolution research: (1) the error propagation problem, where an event coreference resolver has to assume as input the noisy outputs produced by its upstream components in the standard information extraction (IE) pipeline; and (2) the data annotation bottleneck, where manually annotating data for all the components in the IE pipeline...

A Hierarchical Distance-dependent Bayesian Model for Event Coreference Resolution

We present a novel hierarchical distancedependent Bayesian model for event coreference resolution. While existing generative models for event coreference resolution are completely unsupervised, our model allows for the incorporation of pairwise distances between event mentions — information that is widely used in supervised coreference models to guide the generative clustering processing for be...

Translating Granularity of Event Slots into Features for Event Coreference Resolution

Using clues from event semantics to solve coreference, we present an “event template” approach to cross-document event coreference resolution on news articles. The approach uses a pairwise model, in which event information is compared along five semantically motivated slots of an event template. The templates, filled in on the sentence level for every event mention from the data set, are used f...

Revisiting the Evaluation for Cross Document Event Coreference

Cross document event coreference (CDEC) is an important task that aims at aggregating eventrelated information across multiple documents. We revisit the evaluation for CDEC, and discover that past works have adopted different, often inconsistent, evaluation settings, which either overlook certain mistakes in coreference decisions, or make assumptions that simplify the coreference task considera...
