Automatic Quote Attribution in Chinese Literary Works

Xingxing Yang, Yu Wang


Abstract
Quote attribution in fiction refers to the extraction of dialogues and speaker identification of dialogues, which can be divided into 2 steps: quotation annotation and speaker annotation. We use a pipeline for quote attribution, which involves classification, extractive QA, multi-choice QA, and coreference resolution. We also had an evaluation of our model performance by predicting explicit and implicit speakers using a combination of different models.
