contents In document-level relation extraction, entities may appear multiple times in a document, and their relationships can shift from one context to another. Accurate prediction of the relationship between two entities across an entire document requires building a global context spanning all relevant sentences. Previous approaches have focused only on the sentences where entities are mentioned, which fails to capture the complete document context necessary for accurate relation extraction. Therefore, this paper introduces a novel input embedding approach to capture the positions of mentioned entities throughout the document rather than focusing solely on the span where they appear. The proposed input encoding approach leverages global relationships and multi-sentence reasoning by representing entities as standalone segments, independent of their positions within the document. The performance of the proposed method has been tested on three benchmark relation extraction datasets, namely DocRED, Re-DocRED, and REBEL. The experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method accurately predicts relationships between entities in a document-level setting. The proposed research also has theoretical and practical implications. Theoretically, it advances global context modeling and multi-sentence reasoning in document-level relation extraction. Practically, it enhances relationship detection, enabling improved performance in real-world NLP applications requiring comprehensive entity-level insights and interpretability.
