Extracting event knowledge from pretrained language models by Ong, Claudia Beth

“…We perform experiments with these prompts, generated from the WikiHow dataset with the three aforementioned PLMs, getting the accuracy level of each model for each sub-task, namely inclusive sub-event selection, sub-event temporal ordering and starting subevent selection, which when combined, can generate a complete script. We conclude that FLAN-T5 and GPT performs better for all three sub-tasks. …”
