NECE:叙事事件链提取工具包
NECE: Narrative Event Chain Extraction Toolkit
AI总结:
本文提出开放获取的文档级工具包 NECE,可按时间顺序自动提取并对齐叙事事件,并支持事件链可视化与性别叙事偏见分析。
摘要:
要理解叙事,必须把握时间性事件流,尤其是与主要人物相关的事件流;然而,面对冗长且非结构化的叙事文本,这一点可能颇具挑战。为解决该问题,我们推出 NECE,这是一个开放获取的文档级工具包,可按照事件发生的时间顺序自动提取并对齐叙事事件。通过大量评估,我们展示了 NECE 工具包的高质量,并证明了其在分析有关性别的叙事偏见方面的下游应用。我们还公开讨论了当前方法的不足,以及未来工作中利用生成式模型的潜力。最后,NECE 工具包同时包含 Python 库和用户友好的网页界面,为专业人士和普通受众提供同等访问途径,以可视化事件链、获取叙事流或研究叙事偏见。
英文摘要:
To understand a narrative, it is essential to comprehend the temporal event flows, especially those associated with main characters; however, this can be challenging with lengthy and unstructured narrative texts. To address this, we introduce NECE, an open-access, document-level toolkit that automatically extracts and aligns narrative events in the temporal order of their occurrence. Through extensive evaluations, we show the high quality of the NECE toolkit and demonstrates its downstream application in analyzing narrative bias regarding gender. We also openly discuss the shortcomings of the current approach, and potential of leveraging generative models in future works. Lastly the NECE toolkit includes both a Python library and a user-friendly web interface, which offer equal access to professionals and layman audience alike, to visualize event chain, obtain narrative flows, or study narrative bias.
