Although one can use advanced text encoder (e.g., BERT) to capture the context information, extra resources are also required to further improve the model performance.

Experimental results on two English benchmark datasets for span-style SRL (i.e., CoNLL-2005 and CoNLL-2012) demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, which outperforms strong baselines and achieves state-of-the-art results on CoNLL-2005.",
