To advance the study of this problem, this paper presents a novel dataset called SeRI (Sub-event Relation Inference). SeRI includes 3,917 event articles from English Wikipedia and the annotations of their sub-events. It can be used for training or evaluating a model that mines sub-event relation from encyclopedia-style texts. Based on this dataset, we formally define the task of sub-event relation inference from an encyclopedia, propose an experimental setting and evaluation metrics and evaluate some baseline approaches’ performance on this dataset.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/seri-a-dataset-for-sub-event-relation-inference-from-an-encyclopedia/}, }
