For event recognition and type classification, TimeML has served as a representative annotation scheme of events (Pustejovsky, Casta\u00f1o, et al., 2003) , which are defined as situations that happen or occur and expressed by verbs, nominalizations, adjectives, predicative clauses or prepositional phrases. TimeML defines seven types of events, REPORTING, PERCEPTION, ASPECTUAL, I_ACTION, I_STATE, STATE, and OCCURRENCE (Pustejovsky, Knippen, Littman, & Saur\u00ed, 2007) , to which a recognized event text is classified for event type classification.", | |

Jeong & Myaeng (2013) recently showed that using the deeper-level of semantics increased the performance.

| "text": "Semantic features that can be mapped to a structure like WordNet have hierarchical relationships. In this situation, when two features have a hypernym-hyponym relationship, the higher-level feature encompasses the lower-level one (see Figure 1 -(a)). If a conventional feature selection method were used, therefore, the selected features would include both overly specific, low-level features and more general ancestors that cover the characteristics of the children (see Figure 1 -(b)). When the general features are accurate and specific enough to represent the class, their descendants are unnecessary and redundant. When redundant features of similar kind are used, they cause not only efficiency problems but also potential overfitting of the model because the resulting model may become biased towards the semantics covered by the sub-tree containing the features. It is important to select the features that are sufficiently general to encompass more specific features found in the training data but specific enough to utilize deep-level semantics available in the hierarchy (see Figure 1 -(c)). The leftmost feature in (c) covers the semantics of the two features under it without having to keep them. Choosing the feature in the center and the rightmost feature has a similar effect and at the same time avoids using the overly general feature that encompasses both as well as the sibling of the rightmost one, which is not an appropriate one. In other words, we should select as general a feature as possible as long as none of them are considered irrelevant for the class, thereby it can cover the semantics of the features underneath it, without which we can achieve better efficiency.", | |

In essence, the problem of selecting nodes or features from a tree is converted into smaller problems of selecting a node from individual paths. The process is illustrated with Figure 4 where each node of the tree except the root represents a feature. The tree has n paths corresponding to the number of leaf nodes. The algorithm selects the most representative node on a path, which is marked with a black node in To select the most representative feature on a path, we employed the notion of lift, which has been used widely in the area of association rule mining to compute the degree to which two items are associated (Tuff\u00e9ry, 2011) .

| "text": "Compared to \u03c7 23 , TSEL dramatically reduced the feature space significantly by 73.93% and 54.42% for event recognition and type classification, respectively, but the decrease of effectiveness was insignificant for the both tasks. The decrease was compensated by the reselection process (hence the TSEL+\u03c7 2 case) to the point of 1.26% improvement over the \u03c7 2 case. For type classification, only 40.68% of the features required by \u03c7 2 were enough to achieve the same level of effectiveness achieved \u03c7 2 . Due to the decrease of feature space, the running times of classification tasks (except preprocessing) were also quite reduced. The time-savings by TSEL were about 40% and 45% of \u03c7 2 in the recognition and the type classification. We use \u03c7 2 for discussion instead of IG because it showed the better performance than IG for the verb and noun event classification, which is the main focus of the research. Table 3 . Comparisons in effectiveness for event recognition and type classification using SVM classifier Looking at the performance of different PoS types, we found that the performance of noun events was more meaningfully improved with a significantly reduced feature set. With the feature set reduction ratios of 81.66% and 81.50% for recognition and type classification, respectively, we achieved 6.85% and 3.94% of increase in F1 4 . For verbs, the numbers of features used for class recognition were also reduced significantly, but the F1 scores were slightly decreased. Our analysis shows that the increase in effectiveness for nouns is mainly attributed to the fact that the synsets of most nouns are located at a deep level of WordNet hierarchy. On the contrary, the hierarchy for verbs is not as deep as that of nouns. Note that the tree-based selection method is most helpful when heavy redundancy of features with a deep hierarchy causes a problem. Table 4 . Feature space sizes and effectiveness values for noun and verb events in event recognition and type classification Figure 6 and 7 show the performance changes incurred by reducing the feature sets for different feature selection methods. The lines start from the point where all the selected features were used in each method and continue with a decrement of 10% of the feature set all the way to the minimum of 10% of the originally selected feature set. The starting points of TSEL+\u03c7 2 indicate the results of pure TSEL. Despite the elimination of many features, the pure TSEL does not much harm the F1 compared to the best cases of IG and X2. It clearly shows that reducing the size of feature sets is less detrimental with the proposed method in almost all the cases than the other selection methods. TSEL also shows the possibility to select valuable features without manual check of performance for the feature space size. For event type classification, the manual selection process (TSEL+\u03c7 2 ) is still needed in order to find the best features but it guarantees the more effectiveness. Table 5 shows detailed scores for all the event types separately. An improvement is observed for most of the event types except for OCCURRENCE. Our analysis shows that this is related to the size of the training data. Since the ratio of OCCURRENCE events is about 53% of all the events in the TimeBank corpus, the training data for the OCCURRENCE type is much bigger than the others. It indicates that the feature redundancy is problematic when the training data is relatively small and that careful selection of features is particularly important to avoid overfitting. Table 5 . Performance for different event types (unit: F1). * indicates that the percent increase or decrease is statistically significant with p < 0.05.", | |

| "text": "EVITA (Saur\u00ed et al., 2005) is the first event recognition tool for TimeML specification. It recognizes events by using both linguistic and statistical techniques. It uses manually encoded rules based on linguistic information as main features to recognize events. It also uses World-Net classes to those rules for nominal event recognition, and checks whether the head word of noun phrase is included in the WordNet event classes. For sense disambiguation of nouns, it utilizes a Bayesian classifier trained on the Sem-Cor corpus. Boguraev & Ando (2007) analyzed the Time-Bank corpus and presented a machine-learning based approach for automatic TimeML events annotation. They set out the task as a classification problem, and used a robust risk minimization (RRM) classifier to solve it. They used lexical and morphological attributes and syntactic chunk types in bi-and tri-gram windows as features. Bethard & Martin (2006) developed a system, STEP, for TimeML event recognition and type classification. They adopted syntactic and semantic features, and formulated the event recognition task as classification in the word-chunking paradigm. They used a rich set of features: textual, morphological, syntactic dependency and some selected WordNet classes. They implemented a Support Vector Machine (SVM) model based on those features. Llorens et al. (2010) presented an evaluation on event recognition and type classification. They added semantic roles to features, and built the Conditional Random Field (CRF) model to recognize events. They conducted experiments about the contribution of semantic roles and CRF and reported that the CRF model improved the performance but the effects of semantic role features were not significant. Jeong & Myaeng (2013) argued and demonstrated that unit feature dependency information and deep-level WordNet hypernyms are useful for event recognition and type classification. Their proposed method utilizes various features including lexical se-mantic and dependencybased combined features. In the TimeBank 1.2 corpus, the approach achieved 0.8601 and 0.7058 in F1 in event recognition and type classification, respectively.", | |
