| Challenge: | Existing methods for event argument extraction (EAE) lack cross-event information and require longer role sequences . et al. (2017): outperforms state-of-the-art methods for EE. |
| Approach: | They propose a separation-and-fusion paradigm to separate the acquisition of cross-event information and fuse it into the argument extraction of a target event. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art models on four widely used datasets. |
