A Conditional Cascade Model for Relational Triple Extraction


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Tagging based methods are one of the mainstream methods in relational triple extraction. However, most of them suffer from the class imbalance issue greatly. Here we propose a novel tagging based model that addresses this issue from following two aspects. First, at the model level, we propose a three-step extraction framework that can reduce the total number of samples greatly, which implicitly decreases the severity of the mentioned issue. Second, at the intra-model level, we propose a confidence threshold based cross entropy loss that can directly neglect some samples in the major classes. We evaluate the proposed model on NYT and WebNLG. Extensive experiments show that it can address the mentioned issue effectively and achieves state-of-the-art results on both datasets. The source code of our model is available at: https://github.com/neukg/ConCasRTE.
