Many previous studies have focused on extracting only one semantic relation between two entities in a single sentence. However, multiple entities in a sentence are associated through various relations. To address this issue, we propose a relation extraction model based on a dual pointer network with a multi-head attention mechanism. The proposed model finds n-to-1 subject-object relations using a forward object decoder. Then, it finds 1-to-n subject-object relations using a backward subject decoder. Our experiments confirmed that the proposed model outperformed previous models, with an F1-score of 80.8% for the ACE-2005 corpus and an F1-score of 78.3% for the NYT corpus.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.03509v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2103.03509v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"decoder","task_name":"Decoder"},{"task_slug":"object","task_name":"Object"},{"task_slug":null,"task_name":"Relation"},{"task_slug":"relation-extraction","task_name":"Relation Extraction"},{"task_slug":"sentence","task_name":"Sentence"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"attention","method_name":"Attention"},{"method_slug":"lstm","method_name":"LSTM"},{"method_slug":"linear-layer","method_name":"Linear Layer"},{"method_slug":"multi-head-attention","method_name":"Multi-Head Attention"},{"method_slug":"pointer-net","method_name":"Pointer Network"},{"method_slug":"sigmoid-activation","method_name":"Sigmoid Activation"},{"method_slug":"softmax","method_name":"Softmax"},{"method_slug":"tanh-activation","method_name":"Tanh Activation"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[{"leaderboard":"/sota/relation-extraction-on-ace-2005","task":"Relation Extraction","dataset":"ACE 2005","model":"Dual Pointer Network(multi-head)","rank_in_archive_order":23,"of":30,"metrics":{"Cross Sentence":"No","Relation classification F1":"80.8"},"uses_additional_data":false}],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
