PRC PAKTUS: MUC-3 test results and analysis

چکیده
For natural language understanding researchers at PRC, preparing for MUC-3 was a usefu l endeavor in many respects . The value of having a well-defined task, a large corpus, and a n automated scoring program can hardly be overestimated . This exercise has pointed out the strengths of our system, confirmed our feelings about which aspects most need work, and taugh t us how to approach a task of this magnitude efficiently . In this paper, we will discuss our test results, the ways in which we prepared for the task, and lessons learned .

This paper reports on the GE NLTooLsET customization effort for MUC-3, and analyzes th e results of the TST2 run . Although our own tests had shown steady improvement between TST1 and TST2, our official scores on TST2 were lower than on TST1 . The analysis of this unexpected result explains some of the details of the i1'UC-3 test, and we propose ways of looking at the score s . to distinguish d...
