Dependency and Span, Cross-Style Semantic Role Labeling on PropBank and NomBank
The latest developments in neural semantic role labeling (SRL) have shown great performance improvements with both the dependency and span formalisms/styles. Although the two styles share many similarities in linguistic meaning and computation, most previous studies focus on a single style. In this paper, we define a new cross-style semantic role label convention and propose a new cross-style joint optimization model designed around the most basic linguistic meaning of a semantic role, providing a solution to make the results of the two styles more comparable and allowing both formalisms of SRL to benefit from their natural connections in both linguistics and computation. Our model learns a general semantic argument structure and is capable of outputting in either style. Additionally, we propose a syntax-aided method to uniformly enhance the learning of both dependency and span representations. Experiments show that the proposed methods are effective on both span and dependency SRL benchmarks.

Semantic Role Labeling as Syntactic Dependency Parsing
We reduce the task of (span-based) PropBank-style semantic role labeling (SRL) to syntactic dependency parsing. Our approach is motivated by our empirical analysis that shows three common syntactic patterns account for o…
Dependency ParsingSemantic Role LabelingDependency or Span, End-to-End Uniform Semantic Role Labeling
Semantic role labeling (SRL) aims to discover the predicateargument structure of a sentence. End-to-end SRL without syntactic input has received great attention. However, most of them focus on either span-based or depend…

We introduce a new syntax-aware model for dependency-based semantic role labeling that outperforms syntax-agnostic models for English and Spanish. We use a BiLSTM to tag the text with supertags extracted from dependency …

One of the common traits of past and present approaches for Semantic Role Labeling (SRL) is that they rely upon discrete labels drawn from a predefined linguistic inventory to classify predicate senses and their argument…

In this paper we focus on learning dependency aware representations for semantic role labeling without recourse to an external parser. The backbone of our model is an LSTM-based semantic role labeler jointly trained with…
