Learning Sentence-internal Temporal Relations
In this paper we propose a data intensive approach for inferring sentence-internal temporal relations. Temporal inference is relevant for practical NLP applications which either extract or synthesize temporal information (e.g., summarisation, question answering). Our method bypasses the need for manual coding by exploiting the presence of markers like after, which overtly signal a temporal rela...
متن کاملInferring Sentence-internal Temporal Relations
In this paper we propose a data intensive approach for inferring sentence-internal temporal relations, which relies on a simple probabilistic model and assumes no manual coding. We explore various combinations of features, and evaluate performance against a goldstandard corpus and human subjects performing the same task. The best model achieves 70.7% accuracy in inferring the temporal relation ...
متن کاملTemporal references and temporal relations in sentence comprehension.
The author investigated the interpretation of temporal references during comprehension of sentences containing a main and subordinate clause. Experiments 1 and 2 examined state and event subordinate clauses, respectively, and showed that subordinate temporal references overlapping with or close to the time of the main clause event were read faster than nonoverlapping distant references. Experim...
متن کاملBefore and after: sentence-internal and -external discourse relations
This study presents a corpora investigation (online available texts of written and spoken English) regarding the usage of the discourse connectives before and after in multi-sentence discourse. We focus on sentences that begin with a connective and analyse these along with the preceding text. Our results show that two discourse relations have to be derived for these sentences: a sentence-extern...
متن کاملMachine Learning of Temporal Relations
This paper investigates a machine learning approach for temporally ordering and anchoring events in natural language texts. To address data sparseness, we used temporal reasoning as an oversampling method to dramatically expand the amount of training data, resulting in predictive accuracy on link labeling as high as 93% using a Maximum Entropy classifier on human annotated data. This method com...
