| "text": "Coreference resolution of anaphoric identities (a.k.a. anaphora resolution) is a long-studied Natural Language Processing (NLP) task, and is still considered one of the unsolved problems, as it demands deep semantic understanding as well as world knowledge. Although there is a significant performance boost recently by the neural decoders (Lee et al., 2017 (Lee et al., , 2018 and deep contextualized encoders such as BERT and SpanBERT (Joshi et al., 2019 (Joshi et al., , 2020 , the majority of the experiments are based on OntoNotes (Pradhan et al., 2012) from the CoNLL 2012 shared task, which may overestimate the model performance due to two perspectives: the lack of support for harder cases such as singletons and split-antecedents, and the lack of focus on real-world dialogues. In this work, we target on the task of anaphora resolution in the CRAC 2021 shared task (Khosla et al., 2021) that addresses both perspectives, and present an effective coreference resolution system that is adapted from the recent end-to-end coreference model. All datasets in the CRAC 2021 shared task are in the Universal Anaphora format. For simplicity, we refer to it as the UA format, and refer to the annotation scheme of the CoNLL 2012 shared task as the CoNLL format. The UA format is an extension of the CoNLL format, and further supports bridging references and discourse deixis. For anaphora resolution, the UA format differs from the CoNLL format on three aspects: the support of singletons, split-antecedents, and non-referring expressions (excluded from the current evaluation). Our approach specifically addresses the singleton problem (Section 3.1), which is shown to be a critical component under the UA setting that brings 17-22 F1 improvement on all datasets (Section 5.2). Few recent work has studied the split-antecedent problem (Zhou and Choi, 2018) , and we leave the split-antecedents as future work.", | |

Our SR model is built upon MR and further recognizes singletons based on the simple strategy as follows: we make use of the mention score s m in the antecedent selection process, and create a singleton cluster for any candidates with s m > 0 that have not yet found any antecedents, which poses an additional requirement on the mention score, such that only valid mentions should have s m > 0.

To provide deeper knowledge on the interactions, we adopt a simple but effective strategy that is similar to some other work in speaker encoding (Le et al., 2019; Wu et al., 2020) : a special speaker token is prepended to each sentence, and we feed the new speaker-augmented document to the encoder directly. Table 1 shows an example on this speaker augmentation. Each speaker is indexed by the order of the first appearance in the dialogue. All the special speaker tokens are added to the tokenizer vocabulary, and will be picked up in the tokenization and encoding process.

Compared with MR, all models that support singletons receive huge gains on the mention recall with 26-36% improvement, with relatively small 5-10% degradation on the mention precision. More interestingly, most SR/SE-related models are able to recover the majority of gold singletons on all four datasets, up to 73% recall on LIGHT, demonstrating the effectiveness of the mention score optimization in Eq (3) and the new antecedent selection process.
