This paper focuses on its subtask, event argument extraction, and presents a semi-supervised clustering method for extracting event argument. Considering the particular contributions of different features on clustering analysis, the method weights features by introducing the ReliefF algorithm. Constrained-KMeans, a semi-supervised clustering algorithm, is employed to group event arguments. Compared with normal Constrained-KMeans algorithm, feature weighting obviously improves the F-Measure of system performance. The comprehensive experimental results also demonstrate the outstanding performance of our method.}, }
