About the Talk
Extracting structured knowledge from unstructured information such as text, images and speech is a long-standing problem and is useful in a variety of domains and applications. This problem comes with many challenges: label scarcity, multimodality and data biases, to name a few. In this talk, I will discuss some of these challenges and present our recent works that address them for the tasks of event and relation extraction.
