CMNIE Benchmark Introduces Structured Extraction for Chinese Military News

CMNIE is a new benchmark that focuses on structured information extraction from Chinese military news. The dataset contains 13,000 manually annotated documents, covering seven event types, ten argument roles, seven entity types, and eight relation types. It extends previous military‑domain resources by jointly modeling triggers, arguments, entities, and relations under a unified schema.

Key points

  • CMNIE dataset: 13k Chinese military news, 7 event types, 10 argument roles, 7 entity types, 8 relation types.
  • Zero‑shot LLMs identify semantic units but fail to match gold span boundaries, making relation extraction the hardest task.
  • Benchmark promotes research on schema adherence, exact span matching, and joint extraction in specialized Chinese news.

The authors evaluate a range of approaches on a shared test set, including supervised extraction models, zero‑shot large language models, and fine‑tuned LLM‑based methods. Results show that while zero‑shot LLMs can identify relevant semantic units, they struggle to match gold span boundaries exactly, and relation extraction remains the most difficult task. The benchmark is intended to drive research into schema adherence, exact span matching, and joint extraction in specialized Chinese news.
