Abstract
Structured semantic parsing is typically judged by whether the correct category is assigned, which leaves value recovery and instance-level associations unexamined: a system may recognize an event yet bind an argument to the wrong instance, or identify an intent yet supply an incorrect slot value. We present USP, a cross-family semantic contract that represents categories, fields, values, and instance associations through a common interface for named-entity recognition, relation extraction, event extraction, and intent-slot parsing. The contract is paired with five diagnostic matching views---category agreement, field recognition, field-value pairing, instance-bound assignment, and complete-instance recovery---that ask distinct questions about the same output. Using this contract, we normalize 61 datasets into a unified corpus with shared schemas, prompts, and matching rules, and compare six models on a fixed test subset. Our fine-tuned Xing4.0-29B-Intent attains 57.70 task-balanced Field-Value Micro-F1 (equally weighted across the four task families) and ranks first in every family and on all five views; its margin over the strongest alternative widens from 2.93 points for category matching to 20.73 points for complete-instance matching. This widening gap shows that category agreement alone understates structural deficits. USP thus offers the community a shared representation, a normalized 61-dataset corpus, and a diagnostic evaluation protocol that make structural agreement measurable and comparable across extraction and intent-slot tasks.
