Numerals in Financial Narratives
Keyword(s):
AbstractNumerals are more common in financial narratives than in documents from other domains, which makes understanding numerals very important when analyzing financial documents. In this chapter, we summarize our work on numerals in financial narratives and share findings from the FinNum shared task series in the 14th and 15th NTCIR Conferences. In Sect. 5.1, we discuss how to understand the meaning of a given numeral, and in Sect. 5.2, we discuss numeral attachment, where we link numerals and named entities. In Sect. 5.3, we show experimental results from downstream tasks that demonstrate the importance of numeral understanding in financial narratives. We conclude by proposing future research directions in Sect. 5.4.
