Event Extraction in Video Transcripts (2022.coling-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing EE datasets are limited to formally written documents such as news articles or scientific papers . existing EE methods and datasets cannot be used in informal and noisy texts . |
| Approach: | They propose to use video transcripts as a dataset for event extraction . they demonstrate that existing state-of-the-art EE methods cannot achieve adequate performance . |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset evaluates state-of-the-art EE methods on streamed videos on Behance . it shows that such systems cannot achieve adequate performance on the proposed dataset . |

Amir Pouran Ben Veyseh, Nicole Meister, Seunghyun Yoon, Rajiv Jain, Franck Dernoncourt, Thien Huu Nguyen
| Challenge: | Acronym extraction is the task of identifying acronyms and their expanded forms in texts . existing AE methods for English are limited to specific languages and domains . |
| Approach: | They propose to annotate 27,200 sentences in 6 different languages and 2 new domains for AE. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset shows that AE in different languages and learning settings has unique challenges . |

| Challenge: | Existing studies on keyphrase prediction have focused on formal texts and informal-text domains. |
| Approach: | They propose to annotate large-scale video transcripts with keyphrases from live-stream video . they propose to feed models with paragraph-level keyphrase extraction to foster future research . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves keyphrase prediction in live-stream video transcripts by feeding models with paragraph-level keyphrases. |
MECI: A Multilingual Dataset for Event Causality Identification (2022.coling-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Event Causality Identification (ECI) is a task of detecting causal relations between events mentioned in text. |
| Approach: | They propose a multilingual dataset that provides consistent annotations for event causality relations in five languages. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset provides consistent annotation guidelines for five languages . the dataset can provide ample research challenges and directions for future research . |
