Chinese Document-Level Emergency Event Extraction Dataset and Corresponding Methods

Structured extraction of emergency event information can effectively enhance the ability to re-spond to emergency events. This article focuses on the extraction of Chinese document-level emergency events, which mainly faces two key issues in this field: first, related datasets; Secondly, existing DEE (document-level event extraction) studies mostly use sequence annotation to extract candidate entities in the subtask of candidate entity extraction without considering the problem of role overlapping between candidate entities. On the one hand, this article constructs a Chinese document-level emergency extraction dataset, CDEEE, which first annotates the issues of argu-ment scattering, multiple events, and role overlapping. On the other hand, this article proposes a model RODEE for the problem of role overlapping in DEE tasks. This model first uses two in-dependent modules to represent the head and tail positions of candidate entities, then uses a multiplication attention mechanism to interact with the two to obtain a scoring matrix. Finally, role-overlapping candidate entities are predicted to assist in completing DEE tasks. Experiments were conducted on our manually annotated dataset, CDEEE, and the results showed that RODEE can effectively solve the problem of role overlapping in candidate entities and improve the performance of the DEE model.
