Abstract
Training coreference resolution models require comprehensively labeled data. A model trained on one dataset may not successfully transfer to new domains. This paper investigates an approach to active learning for coreference resolution that feeds discrete annotations to an incremental clustering model. The recent developments in incremental coreference resolution allow for a novel approach to active learning in this setting. Through this new framework, we analyze important factors in data acquisition, like sources of model uncertainty and balancing reading and labeling costs. We explore different settings through simulated labeling with gold data. By lowering the data barrier for coreference, coreference resolvers can rapidly adapt to a series of previously unconsidered domains.
