“Biomedical event representation can be applied to various language tasks. A biomedical eventoften involves multiple biomedical entities and trigger words, and the event structure is complex.However, existing research on event representation mainly focuses on the general domain. Ifmodels from the general domain are directly transferred to biomedical event representation, theresults may not be satisfactory. We argue that biomedical events can be divided into three hierar-chies, each containing unique feature information. Therefore, we propose the Triple-views EventHierarchy Model (TEHM) to enhance the quality of biomedical event representation. TEHM ex-tracts feature information from three different views and integrates them. Specifically, due to thecomplexity of biomedical events, We propose the Trigger-aware Aggregator module to handlecomplex units within biomedical events. Additionally, we annotate two similarity task datasetsin the biomedical domain using annotation standards from the general domain. Extensive exper-iments demonstrate that TEHM achieves state-of-the-art performance on biomedical similaritytasks and biomedical event casual relation extraction.Introduction”
