TLAG: An Informative Trigger and Label-Aware Knowledge Guided Model for Dialogue-based Relation Extraction

Dialogue-based Relation Extraction (DRE) aims to predict the relation type of argument pairs that are mentioned in dialogue. The latest trigger-enhanced methods propose trigger prediction tasks to promote DRE. However, these methods are not able to fully leverage the trigger information and even bring noise to relation extraction. To solve these problems, we propose TLAG, which fully leverages the trigger and label-aware knowledge to guide the relation extraction. First, we design an adaptive trigger fusion module to fully leverage the trigger information. Then, we introduce label-aware knowledge to further promote our model's performance. Experimental results on the DialogRE dataset show that our TLAG outperforms the baseline models, and detailed analyses demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.

Impact Mitigation for Dynamic Legged Robots with Steel Wire Transmission Using Nonlinear Active Compliance Control

Impact mitigation is crucial to the stable locomotion of legged robots, especially in high-speed dynamic locomotion. This paper presents a leg locomotion system including the nonlinear active compliance control and the active impedance control for the steel wire transmission-based legged robot. The developed control system enables high-speed dynamic locomotion with excellent impact mitigation and leg position tracking performance, where three strategies are applied. a) The feed-forward controller is designed according to the linear motor-leg model with the information of Coulomb friction and viscous friction. b) Steel wire transmission model-based compensation guarantees ideal virtual spring compliance characteristics. c) Nonlinear active compliance control and active impedance control ensure better impact mitigation performance than linear scheme and guarantee position tracking performance. The proposed control system is verified on a real robot named SCIT Dog and the experiment demonstrates the ideal impact mitigation ability in high-speed dynamic locomotion without any passive spring mechanism.
