Piled: An identify-and-localize framework for few-shot event detection

We propose P4E, an identify-and-localize event detection framework that integrates the best of few-shot prompting and structured prediction. Our framework decomposes event detection into an identification task and a localization task. For the …

Empower Distantly Supervised Relation Extraction with Collaborative Adversarial Training

With recent advances in distantly supervised (DS) relation extraction (RE), considerable attention is attracted to leverage multi-instance learning (MIL) to distill high-quality supervision from the noisy DS. Here, we go beyond label noise and …

Looking Beyond Label Noise: Shifted Label Distribution Matters in Distantly Supervised Relation Extraction

In recent years there is a surge of interest in applying distant supervision (DS) to automatically generate training data for relation extraction (RE). In this paper, we study the problem what limits the performance of DS-trained neural models, …

Cross-Relation Cross-Bag Attention for Distantly-Supervised Relation Extraction

Distant supervision leverages knowledge bases to automatically label instances, thus allowing us to train relation extractor without human annotations. However, the generated training data typically contain massive noise, and may result in poor …

Learning Named Entity Tagger using Domain-Specific Dictionary

Recent advances in deep neural models allow us to build reliable named entity recognition (NER) systems without handcrafting features. However, such methods require large amounts of manually-labeled training data. There have been efforts on replacing …

Heterogeneous Supervision for Relation Extraction: A Representation Learning Approach

Relation extraction is a fundamental task in information extraction. Most existing methods have heavy reliance on annotations labeled by human experts, which are costly and time-consuming. To overcome this drawback, we propose a novel framework, …
