Challenge: Existing methods for identifying and clustering mentions in text are complex and require heuristics to solve.
Approach: They propose to use a biaffine attention model to get antecedent scores for each possible mention and optimize mention detection and mention clustering accuracy given the mention cluster labels.
Outcome: The proposed model achieves the state-of-the-art performance on the CoNLL-2012 shared task English test set.

They Exist! Introducing Plural Mentions to Coreference Resolution and Entity Linking (C18-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Unlike singular mentions each of which represents one entity, plural mentions stand for multiple entities.
Approach: They propose a novel coreference resolution algorithm that selectively creates clusters to handle both singular and plural mentions and a deep learning-based entity linking model that jointly handles both types of mentions through multi-task learning.
Outcome: The proposed model outperforms existing models designed for singular mentions and plural mentions.
