Abstract
En 中文
Spatial relations in text refer to how a geographical entity is located in space in relation to a reference entity. Extracting spatial relations from text is a fundamental task in natural language understanding. Previous studies have only focused on generic fine-tuning methods with additional classifiers, ignoring the importance of the semantic correlation between different spatial elements and the large offset between the relation extraction task and the pre-trained models. To address the above two issues, we propose a spatial relation extraction model based on Dual-view Prompt and Element Correlation (DPEC). Specifically, we first reformulate spatial relation extraction as a mask language model with a Dual-view Prompt (i.e., Link Prompt and Confidence Prompt). Link Prompt can not only guide the model to incorporate more contextual information related to the spatial relation extraction task, but also better adapt to the original pre-training task of the language models. Meanwhile, Confidence Prompt can measure the confidence of candidate triplets in Link Prompt and work as a supplement to identify those easily confused examples in Link Prompt. Moreover, we incorporate the element correlation to measure the consistency between different spatial elements, which is an effective cue for identifying the rationality of spatial relations. Experimental results on the popular SpaceEval show that our DPEC significantly outperforms the SOTA baselines.
