ShanghaiTech at MRP 2019: Sequence-to-Graph Transduction with Second-Order Edge Inference for Cross-Framework Meaning Representation Parsing

This paper presents the system used in our submission to the \textit{CoNLL 2019 shared task: Cross-Framework Meaning Representation Parsing}. Our system is a graph-based parser which combines an extended pointer-generator network that generates nodes and a second-order mean field variational inference module that predicts edges. Our system achieved \nth{1} and \nth{2} place for the DM and PSD frameworks respectively on the in-framework ranks and achieved \nth{3} place for the DM framework on the cross-framework ranks.
