%X Relation extraction is a crucial task in natural language processing (NLP) and information retrieval (IR). Previous work on event relation extraction mainly focuses on hierarchical, temporal and causal relations.

To bridge this gap, we introduce a human-annotated Event Dependency Relation dataset (EDeR).
