Abstract

Joint Entity and Relation Extraction (JERE) is highly sensitive to training data quality, making data augmentation a natural way to improve generalization. However, existing augmentation methods often weaken entity relevance and disrupt semantic structure, limiting their effectiveness for JERE. In this paper, we propose \textbf{Structured Semantic Data Augmentation (SSDAU)}, a method designed to preserve triple-aware semantic structure during augmentation. SSDAU segments text by entity labels, captures semantic features through context-aware encoding, and restructures entity semantics to generate augmented data. To distinguish semantically similar entities, SSDAU combines contextualized embeddings with traditional similarity scores. To reduce topic inconsistency, we apply BERTopic-based filtering to remove irrelevant augmentations. We evaluate SSDAU on datasets with different annotation types and compare its performance on five representative JERE models against seven popular augmentation baselines. Experiments show that SSDAU generates semantically consistent data, is more robust to ambiguity than non-LLM methods (8.95\% vs. 23.58\% average relative F1 decrease), and significantly outperforms strong alternatives in most settings.
