  abstract  = {In this paper, we describe our preliminary study on annotating event mention as
	a part of our research on high-precision news event extraction models. To this
	end, we propose a two-layer annotation scheme, designed to separately capture
	the functional and conceptual aspects of event mentions. We hypothesize that
	the precision of models can be improved by modeling and extracting separately
	the different aspects of news events, and then combining the extracted
	information by leveraging the complementarities of the models. In addition, we
	carry out a preliminary annotation using the proposed scheme and analyze the
	annotation quality in terms of inter-annotator agreement.},
