We apply BERT to coreference resolution, achieving strong improvements on the OntoNotes (+3.9 F1) and GAP (+11.5 F1) benchmarks. A qualitative analysis of model predictions indicates that, compared to ELMo and BERT-base, BERT-large is particularly better at distinguishing between related but distinct entities (e.g., President and CEO). However, there is still room for improvement in modeling document-level context, conversations, and mention paraphrasing. Our code and models are publicly available.

No neural coreference resolver for Arabic exists, in fact we are not aware of any learning-based coreference resolver for Arabic since (Bjorkelund and Kuhn, 2014). In this paper, we introduce a coreference resolution system for Arabic based on Lee et als end to end architecture combined with the Arabic version of bert and an external mention detector. As far as we know, this is the first neural coreference resolution system aimed specifically to Arabic, and it substantially outperforms the existing state of the art on OntoNotes 5.0 with a gain of 15.2 points conll F1. We also discuss the current limitations of the task for Arabic and possible approaches that can tackle these challenges.
Training coreference resolution models require comprehensively labeled data. A model trained on one dataset may not successfully transfer to new domains. This paper investigates an approach to active learning for coreference resolution that feeds dis crete annotations to an incremental clustering model. The recent developments in incremental coreference resolution allow for a novel approach to active learning in this setting. Through this new framework, we analyze important factors in data acquisition, like sources of model uncertainty and balancing reading and labeling costs. We explore different settings through simulated labeling with gold data. By lowering the data barrier for coreference, coreference resolvers can rapidly adapt to a series of previously unconsidered domains.
Cross-document coreference resolution (CDCR) datasets, such as ECB+, contain manually annotated event-centric mentions of events and entities that form coreference chains with identity relations. ECB+ is a state-of-the-art CDCR dataset that focuses o n the resolution of events and their descriptive attributes, i.e., actors, location, and date-time. NewsWCL50 is a dataset that annotates coreference chains of both events and entities with a strong variance of word choice and more loosely-related coreference anaphora, e.g., bridging or near-identity relations. In this paper, we qualitatively and quantitatively compare annotation schemes of ECB+ and NewsWCL50 with multiple criteria. We propose a phrasing diversity metric (PD) that compares lexical diversity within coreference chains on a more detailed level than previously proposed metric, e.g., a number of unique lemmas. We discuss the different tasks that both CDCR datasets create, i.e., lexical disambiguation and lexical diversity challenges, and propose a direction for further CDCR evaluation.
Linking pronominal expressions to the correct references requires, in many cases, better analysis of the contextual information and external knowledge. In this paper, we propose a two-layer model for pronoun coreference resolution that leverages both context and external knowledge, where a knowledge attention mechanism is designed to ensure the model leveraging the appropriate source of external knowledge based on different context. Experimental results demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of our model, where it outperforms state-of-the-art models by a large margin.
Resolving pronoun coreference requires knowledge support, especially for particular domains (e.g., medicine). In this paper, we explore how to leverage different types of knowledge to better resolve pronoun coreference with a neural model. To ensure the generalization ability of our model, we directly incorporate knowledge in the format of triplets, which is the most common format of modern knowledge graphs, instead of encoding it with features or rules as that in conventional approaches. Moreover, since not all knowledge is helpful in certain contexts, to selectively use them, we propose a knowledge attention module, which learns to select and use informative knowledge based on contexts, to enhance our model. Experimental results on two datasets from different domains prove the validity and effectiveness of our model, where it outperforms state-of-the-art baselines by a large margin. Moreover, since our model learns to use external knowledge rather than only fitting the training data, it also demonstrates superior performance to baselines in the cross-domain setting.
