This paper presents a neural network classifier approach to detecting precise within-document(WD) and cross-document(CD) event coreference clusters effectively using only event mention based features. Our approach does not rely on any event argument features such as semantic roles or spatio-temporal arguments and uses no sophisticated clustering approach. Experimental results on the ECB+ dataset show that our simple approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods for both within-document and cross-document event coreference resolution while producing clusters of high precision, which is useful for several downstream tasks.

Keywords : Deep learning; event coreference; semantics.
