Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing state-of-the-art event coreference resolution systems rely on spurious and spurious associations in the input mention pair text. |
| Approach: | They propose a rationale-centric counterfactual data augmentation method that leverages the debiasing capability of counterfact data haussed by LLM-in-the-loop to mitigate spurious association while emphasizing causation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method achieves state-of-the-art on three popular cross-document benchmarks and demonstrates robustness in out-of domain scenarios. |
