Challenge: Existing methods for relation extraction are limited to Sentence-level Relation Extraction (SentRE) tasks.
Approach: They propose an end-to-end DocRE model that adopts a novel RE extraction paradigm named RHF (Relation-Head-Facts) Unlike existing approaches, AutoRE does not rely on the assumption of known relation options, making it more reflective of real-world scenarios.
Outcome: The proposed model surpasses TAG by 10.03% and 9.03% on the dev and test set.
