Document‐level (Doc‐level) event argument extraction (EAE) needs to deal with longer text inputs and complex semantic relationships than sentence‐level, making it a challenging information extraction task. Extracting event arguments from an entire document primarily faces two critical issues: (i) how to handle the long‐distance dependency between ...

NMN-VD: A Neural Module Network for Visual Dialog
Visual dialog demonstrates several important aspects of multimodal artificial intelligence; however, it is hindered by visual grounding and visual coreference resolution problems. To overcome these problems, we propose the novel neural module network for

The Shallow Structure Hypothesis and Sentence Processing in a Second Language
ABSTRACT The Shallow Structure Hypothesis (SSH) has been highly influential in the study of adult second language (L2) acquisition. With respect to L2 sentence processing, the essential claim is that L2 speakers rely less on syntactic information and more on alternative sources of information (e.g., lexical semantics and discourse) than adult first ...

The repetition of nominal elements and the anaphoric use of pronouns in successive sentences is a fundamental cohesive pattern which ties sentences together and contributes to the coherence of sequences.

Awareness of Grammatical Variability in Language Contact: The Case of Mano and Kpelle in Guinea
ABSTRACT This paper contributes to research on the awareness of grammatical variability through a study of variation in reflexivity marking in Mano under the influence of Kpelle, both indigenous languages of Guinea. The speakers of these languages are found to be sensitive to contact‐induced grammatical variation in reflexivity, which manifests via ...
