Prompt learning is an effective paradigm that bridges gaps between the pre-training tasks and the corresponding downstream applications. Approaches based on this paradigm have achieved great transcendent results in various applications. However, it still needs to be answered how to design a unified framework based on the prompt learning paradigm for various information extraction tasks. In this paper, we propose a novel composable prompt-based generative framework, which could be applied to a wide range of tasks in the field of Information Extraction. Specifically, we reformulate information extraction tasks into the form of filling slots in pre-designed type-specific prompts, which consist of one or multiple sub-prompts. A strategy of constructing composable prompts is proposed to enhance the generalization ability to extract events in data-scarce scenarios. Furthermore, to fit this framework, we transform Relation Extraction into the task of determining semantic consistency in prompts. The experimental results demonstrate that our approach surpasses compared baselines on real-world datasets in data-abundant and data-scarce scenarios. Further analysis of the proposed framework is presented, as well as numerical experiments conducted to investigate impact factors of performance on various tasks. |
