Causality Extraction Cascade Model Based on Dual Labeling

Causal relation extraction is a crucial task in natural language processing. Current extraction methods have problems, including low accuracy of causal-event division and incorrect extraction of important semantic features. This study uses the bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) and attentive convolutional neural network (ACNN) models to construct a cascaded causal relationship extraction model to improve the precision of the extraction. The model uses two kinds of labels and then divides the causal event boundary after determining the relationship between the front and rear causal events. It automatically learns semantic features from sentences, reducing the dependence on external knowledge and improving the precision of extraction. The experimental results demonstrate that the precision of causality extraction can reach 81.67% and the F1 value can reach 83.2%.
