Training Time

Semantic role labeling is an effective approach to understand underlying meanings associated with word relationships in natural language sentences. Recent studies using deep neural networks, specifically, recurrent neural networks, have significantly improved traditional shallow models. However, due to the limitation of recurrent updates, they require long training time over a large data set. Moreover, they could not capture the hierarchical structures of languages. We propose a novel deep neural model, providing selective connections among attentive representations, which remove the recurrent updates, for semantic role labeling. Experimental results show that our model performs better in accuracy compared to the state-of-the-art studies. Our model achieves 86.6 F1 scores and 83.6 F1 scores on the CoNLL 2005 and CoNLL 2012 shared tasks, respectively. The accuracy gains are improved by capturing the hierarchical information using the connection module. Moreover, we show that our model can be parallelized to avoid the repetitive updates of the model. As a result, our model reduces the training time by 62 percentages from the baseline.

Predicate Argument Structure

The task of semantic role labeling ( SRL ) is dedicated to finding the predicate-argument structure. Previous works on SRL are mostly supervised and do not consider the difficulty in labeling each example which can be very expensive and time-consuming. In this article, we present the first neural unsupervised model for SRL. To decompose the task as two argument related subtasks, identification and clustering, we propose a pipeline that correspondingly consists of two neural modules. First, we train a neural model on two syntax-aware statistically developed rules. The neural model gets the relevance signal for each token in a sentence, to feed into a BiLSTM, and then an adversarial layer for noise-adding and classifying simultaneously, thus enabling the model to learn the semantic structure of a sentence. Then we propose another neural model for argument role clustering, which is done through clustering the learned argument embeddings biased toward their dependency relations. Experiments on the CoNLL-2009 English dataset demonstrate that our model outperforms the previous state-of-the-art baseline in terms of non-neural models for argument identification and classification.

Predicate Argument Structure

Abstract Semantic role labeling (SRL) is dedicated to recognizing the semantic predicate-argument structure of a sentence. Previous studies in terms of traditional models have shown syntactic information can make remarkable contributions to SRL performance; however, the necessity of syntactic information was challenged by a few recent neural SRL studies that demonstrate impressive performance without syntactic backbones and suggest that syntax information becomes much less important for neural semantic role labeling, especially when paired with recent deep neural network and large-scale pre-trained language models. Despite this notion, the neural SRL field still lacks a systematic and full investigation on the relevance of syntactic information in SRL, for both dependency and both monolingual and multilingual settings. This paper intends to quantify the importance of syntactic information for neural SRL in the deep learning framework. We introduce three typical SRL frameworks (baselines), sequence-based, tree-based, and graph-based, which are accompanied by two categories of exploiting syntactic information: syntax pruningbased and syntax feature-based. Experiments are conducted on the CoNLL-2005, 2009, and 2012 benchmarks for all languages available, and results show that neural SRL models can still benefit from syntactic information under certain conditions. Furthermore, we show the quantitative significance of syntax to neural SRL models together with a thorough empirical survey using existing models.
