Abstract: As a sub-task of event extraction,event detection is a research hotspot in information extraction.It plays an important role in many NLP applications,such as knowledge graph,question answering and reading comprehension.Different with English character,a Chinese character can be regarded as single-character word and has its certain meaning.Moreover,there are specific structures in Chinese words.Therefore,this paper proposes a Chinese event detection model based on graph convolution neural network,called JRCW-GCN(Joint Representation of Characters and Words by Graph Convolution Neural Network),which integrates Chinese character and word representation.It uses the latest BERT and Transformer to encode the semantic information of words and characters respectively,and then uses the relationship between words and characters to construct the corresponding edges.Finally,it uses the graph convolution model to detect Chinese events by integrating the semantic information in Chinese character and word level.The experimental results on the ACE2005 Chinese corpus show that the performance of our model outperforms the state-of-the-art models.

Key words: Chinese event detection, Graph convolution, Joint representation
