Cross-Document Event Coreference (CDEC) annotation is challenging and difficult to scale, resulting in existing datasets being small and lacking diversity. We introduce a new approach leveraging large language models (LLMs) to decontextualize event mentions, by simplifying the document-level annotat…
Interpreting Noun-Noun Compounds remains a persistent challenge for Large Language Models (LLMs) because the semantic relation between the modifier and the head is rarely stated explicitly. Recent benchmarks frame Noun-Noun Compound Interpretation as a multiple-choice question. While this setting al
This paper introduces GLAMR, an Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR) interpretation of Generative Lexicon (GL) semantic components. It includes a structured subeventual interpretation of linguistic predicates, and encoding of the opposition structure of property changes of event arguments. Both of…
Semantic textual similarity (STS) is a fundamental NLP task that measures the semantic similarity between a pair of sentences. In order to reduce the inherent ambiguity posed from the sentences, a recent work called Conditional STS (C-STS) has been proposed to measure the sentences’ similarity condi…
We demonstrate that coreference resolution in procedural texts is significantly improved when performing transformation-based entity linking prior to coreference relation identification. When events in the text introduce changes to the state of participating entities, it is often impossible to accur…
