A Semantic Mention Graph Augmented Model for Document-Level Event Argument Extraction (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Document-level Event Argument Extraction (DEAE) aims to identify arguments and their specific roles from unstructured document. |
| Approach: | They propose a document-prompt-based method for document-level event argument extraction that uses a semantic mention graph to capture relations between documents and prompts. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method surpasses baseline methods and achieves state-of-the-art performance on RAMS and WikiEvents datasets. |
Adversarial Knowledge Stimulated Contrastive Prompting for Few-shot Language Learners (2023.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Prompt-based fine-tuning has boosted performance of Pre-trained language models on few-shot Natural Language Understanding (NLU) tasks by employing task-specific prompts. |
| Approach: | They propose a Cloze-driven prompt framework for prompt tuning that implicitly stimulates knowledge from pre-trained language models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms state-of-the-art for prompt-based fine-tuning on few-shot NLU tasks. |
Improving Knowledge Production Efficiency With Question Answering on Conversation (2023.acl-industry)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing researches on conversation-based QA focus on document-based tasks . current researche focuses on document based tasks, but there is a lack of researche on conversation based qa . |
| Approach: | They propose a multi-span extraction model on conversation-based QA and introduce continual pre-training and multi-task learning schemes to further improve model performance. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms baseline on two Chinese datasets and will be released for research purposes. |
Neural-DINF: A Neural Network based Framework for Measuring Document Influence (2020.acl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods to measure scholarly impact of documents without citations only consider word frequency change. |
| Approach: | They propose a neural network framework that measures document influence without citations by using word frequency changes and word semantic shifts. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms existing models on document influence evaluation without citations. |
