Sentence-level Event Detection without Triggers via Prompt Learning and Machine Reading Comprehension
The traditional way of sentence-level event detection involves two important subtasks: trigger identification and trigger classifications, where the identified event trigger words are used to classify event types from sentences. However, trigger classification highly depends on abundant annotated trigger words and the accuracy of trigger identification. In a real scenario, annotating trigger words is time-consuming and laborious. For this reason, we propose a trigger-free event detection model, which transforms event detection into a two-tower model based on machine reading comprehension and prompt learning. Compared to existing trigger-based and trigger-free methods, experimental studies on two event detection benchmark datasets (ACE2005 and MAVEN) have shown that the proposed approach can achieve competitive performance.

Event Detection without Triggers
The goal of event detection (ED) is to detect the occurrences of events and categorize them. Previous work solved this task by recognizing and classifying event triggers, which is defined as the word or phrase that most …
