Approach: They propose a two-stream abstract meaning representation enhanced extraction model to extract event arguments from an entire document.
Outcome: The proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art in extracting event arguments from documents by 2.54 F1 and 5.13 F1 on public RAMS and WikiEvents datasets.

An AMR-based Link Prediction Approach for Document-level Event Argument Extraction (2023.acl-long)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Recent work has introduced Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR) for Document-level Event Argument Extraction (Doc-level EAE) however, in these works AMR is used only implicitly, for instance, as additional features or training signals.
Approach: They propose a novel AMR-based graph structure which uses graph neural networks to find event arguments from unstructured text.
Outcome: The proposed graph structure outperforms the state-of-the-art models by 3.63pt and 2.33pt F1 and reduces inference time by 56%.
Beyond Single-Event Extraction: Towards Efficient Document-Level Multi-Event Argument Extraction (2024.findings-acl)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: mainstream event argument extraction methods process each event in isolation, resulting in inefficient inference and ignoring correlations among multiple events.
Approach: They propose a multi-event argument argument extraction model which extracts arguments from all events simultaneously.
Outcome: The proposed model performs better on four public datasets while saving time.
Dynamic Global Memory for Document-level Argument Extraction (2022.acl-long)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Recent work on document-level event argument extraction is restricted by sequence length constraints and ignores global context between events.
Approach: They propose to construct a document memory store to extract contextual event information and leverage it to implicitly and explicitly help with decoding of arguments for later events.
Outcome: The proposed framework outperforms prior methods and is more robust to adversarially annotated examples with constrained decoding design.

Challenge: Event argument extraction (EAE) has been well studied at the sentence level but under-explored at the document level.
Approach: They propose a Few-Shot Document-Level Event Argument Extraction benchmark to capture event arguments that actually spread across sentences in documents.
Outcome: The proposed task is very challenging with low performance and limited learning process . argument extraction depends on context from multiple sentences and learning process limited to very few examples .
Multi-Sentence Argument Linking (2020.acl-main)

Challenge: Existing datasets for cross-sentence linking are small, resulting in a lack of a model for argument linking.
Approach: They propose a document-level model for finding argument spans that fill an event’s roles by combining semantic role labeling and coreference resolution.
Outcome: The proposed model is able to connect arguments in sentence-level role labeling and coreference resolution on 9,124 annotated events across 139 types.

Approach: They propose an event-aware argument extraction model with augmented context to improve consistency . they hypothesize that participants tend to play consistent roles across multiple events in a document .
Outcome: The proposed model improves consistency and accuracy of arguments extracted from documents.
