A computing system is provided. The computing system includes a processor configured to execute one or more programs and associated memory. The processor is configured to execute neural network system that includes a first neural network and a second neural network. The processor is configured to receive input text, and for each of a plurality of text spans within the input text: identify a vector of semantic entities and a vector of entity mentions; define an n-ary relation between entity mentions including subrelations; and determine mention-level representation vectors in the text spans that satisfy the n-ary relation or subrelations. The processor is configured to: aggregate the mention-level representation vectors over all of the text spans to produce entity-level representation vectors; input to the second neural network the entity-level representation vectors; and output a prediction of a presence of the n-ary relation for the semantic entities in the input text.
