一、Event Definition
- ACE:an “event“ is defined as a specific occurrence of something that happens, often a change of state, involving participants (LDC, 2005B).
- TimeML:“events” are characterized as “situations that happen or occur”
ECB+数据集对上述定义做了拓展,将来源于新闻语料中的事件定义为4个组件的组合
- action:describing what happens or holds true
- time slot:describing when something happens or holds true
- location:specifying where something happens or holds true
- participant : gives the answer to the question: who or what is
involved with, undergoes change as result of, or facilitates an event or a state. We
divide event participants into human participants (viz. §2.2.3.3) and non-human
participants
ECB+数据集在标注数据集时是以事件为中心。
