Extracting Events Like Code: A Multi-Agent Programming Framework for Zero-Shot Event Extraction

AAAI 2026technical

Zero-shot event extraction (ZSEE) remains a significant challenge for large language models (LLMs) due to the need for complex reasoning and domain-specific understanding. Direct prompting often yields incomplete or structurally invalid outputs—such as misclassified triggers, missing arguments, and

ITPP: Learning Disentangled Event Dynamics in Marked Temporal Point Processes

AAAI 2026technical

Marked Temporal Point Processes (MTPPs) provide a principled framework for modeling asynchronous event sequences by conditioning on the history of past events. However, most existing MTPP models rely on channel-mixing strategies that encode information from different event types into a single, fixed

BANER: Boundary-Aware LLMs for Few-Shot Named Entity Recognition

COLING 2025main

Despite the recent success of two-stage prototypical networks in few-shot named entity recognition (NER), challenges such as over/under-detected false spans in the span detection stage and unaligned entity prototypes in the type classification stage persist. Additionally, LLMs have not proven to be…

Bridging Generative and Discriminative Learning: Few-Shot Relation Extraction via Two-Stage Knowledge-Guided Pre-training

IJCAI 2025

Few-Shot Relation Extraction (FSRE) remains a challenging task due to the scarcity of annotated data and the limited generalization capabilities of existing models. Although large language models (LLMs) have shown potential in FSRE through in-context learning, their general-purpose training objectiv

Translational Generative Retrieval via Potential Query Generation

ICASSP 2025accepted

Document retrieval aims to find documents related to the query from all candidate documents. Existing studies develop the Generative Retrieval approach, which assigns a unique DocID to each document, and then measures document-query relevance based on the probability of generating the expected DocID…

Zero-Shot Cross-Domain Slot Filling with Retrieval Augmented In-Context Learning

ICASSP 2025accepted

Zero-shot cross-domain slot filling is becoming increasingly important due to its ability to generalize to new domains without the need for annotating domain-specific data, which aligns well with the requirements of industrial deployments. Recent advanced works deal with this task through question a…

MDNN: A Multimodal Deep Neural Network for Predicting Drug-Drug Interaction Events

IJCAI 2021poster

The interaction of multiple drugs could lead to serious events, which causes injuries and huge medical costs. Accurate prediction of drug-drug interaction (DDI) events can help clinicians make effective decisions and establish appropriate therapy programs. Recently, many AI-based techniques have bee…
