A Span Selection Model for Semantic Role Labeling
Hiroki Ouchi, Hiroyuki Shindo, Yūji Matsumoto · 2018
We present a simple and accurate span-based model for semantic role labeling (SRL).Our model directly takes into account all possible argument spans and scores them for each label.At decoding time, we greedily select higher scoring labeled spans.One advantage of our model is to allow us to design and use spanlevel features, that are difficult to use in tokenbased BIO tagging approaches.Experimental results demonstrate that our ensemble model achieves the state-of-the-art results, 87.4 F1 and 87.0 F1 on the CoNLL-2005 and 2012 datasets, respectively.
