HySPA: Hybrid Span Generation for Scalable Text-to-Graph Extraction (2021.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods to extract information graphs are difficult to scale to datasets with longer input texts because of their secondorder space/time complexities. |
| Approach: | They propose a Hybrid SPan GenerAtor that invertibly maps the information graph to an alternating sequence of nodes and edge types and generates them via a hybrid span decoder. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods on the ACE05 dataset. |
An Empirical Study on Finding Spans (2022.emnlp-main)
