SciNLP is a new benchmark dataset for full‑text entity and relation extraction in the NLP domain, comprising 60 manually annotated papers with 6,429 entities and 1,649 relations. It is the first dataset to provide full‑text annotations of entities and their relationships specifically for NLP literature. Experiments show that models trained on SciNLP outperform baselines on certain tasks, and the dataset enabled the automatic construction of a fine‑grained knowledge graph with an average node degree of 3.3.

CONSISTRE is a consistency‑aware framework for document‑level relation extraction that tackles contradictions in large language model predictions. It offers two tracks: an inference‑time track that refines black‑box LLM outputs through constraint‑aware prompting, verification, and self‑reflection, and a training‑time track that distills consistency knowledge into smaller open‑source models via supervised fine‑tuning and reinforcement learning. Experiments on DocRED show both tracks outperform baselines, with the inference‑time track matching competitive F1 scores and the training‑time track narrowing the performance gap to proprietary LLMs while reducing inference cost.

LMEnt is a toolkit designed to study how language models acquire and represent world knowledge. It includes a richly annotated pretraining corpus, an improved entity-based retrieval method, and twelve pretrained models with numerous checkpoints. The suite enables controlled experiments linking entity mentions in training data to downstream knowledge performance, revealing how co-occurrence patterns influence learning and editing difficulty.

Document-level relation extraction (DocRE) aims to extract relations among multiple entities across extended contexts while maintaining consistency across predicted triples. Although large language models (LLMs) show remarkable reasoning capabilities in information extraction, their predictions are typically generated independently for each candidate triple and may violate fundamental relational constraints such as transitivity, symmetry, and functional uniqueness, leading to contradictory and unreliable outputs.
