| Challenge: | Existing systems for coreference resolution are difficult because of their long coreferent chains. |
| Approach: | They propose to use an existing span-based neural coreference resolution system as a baseline . they filter noisy mentions based on parse trees and integrate a highly expressive language model into the system . |
| Outcome: | The proposed system outperforms the baseline system on the CRAFT Shared Tasks 2019 task. |

BERT for Coreference Resolution: Baselines and Analysis (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent BERT-based models have reported dramatic gains on multiple semantic benchmarks including question-answering, natural language inference, and named entity recognition. |
| Approach: | They apply BERT to coreference resolution, achieving a new state of the art on the GAP and OntoNotes benchmarks. |
| Outcome: | A qualitative analysis of model predictions shows that BERT-large is better at distinguishing between related but distinct entities, but there is room for improvement in modeling document-level context, conversations, and mention paraphrasing. |
