End-to-end coreference resolution is the task of identifying the mentions in a text that refer to the same real world entity and grouping them into clusters. It is crucially required for natural language understanding tasks and other high-level NLP tasks. In this paper, we present an end-to-end architecture for neural coreference resolution using AdapterFusion, a new two stage learning algorithm that leverages knowledge from multiple tasks. First task is in identifying the mentions in the text and the second to determine the coreference clusters. In the first task we learn task specific parameters called adapters that encapsulate the taskspecific information and then combine the adapters in a separate knowledge composition step to identify the mentions and their clusters. We evaluated it using FIRE corpus for Malayalam and Tamil and we achieved state of art performance.
