Abstract

NT (Naming-telling) Clause Complex Framework defines the clause complex structures through component sharing and logic-semantic relationships. In this paper, we formalize component sharing recognition as a multi-span extraction problem in machine learning. And we propose a model with mask strategy to recognize the shared components of cross punctuation clauses based on pre-training models. Furthermore, we present a Chinese Long-distance Shared Component Recognition Dataset (LSCR) with four domains, including 43k texts and 156k shared components that need to be predicted. Experimental results and analysis show that our model outperforms previous methods in large margin. All the codes and dataset are available at https://github.com/smiletm/LSCR.
