pre-CODIE-Crosslingual On-Demand Information Extraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Our research addresses two central issues of information extraction — portability and multilinguality. We are creating information extraction (IE) systems that take foreign-language input and generate English tables of extracted information, and that can be easily adapted to new extraction tasks. We want to minimize the human intervention required for customization to a new scenario (type of facts or events of interest), and allow the user to interact with the system entirely in English. As a prototype, we have developed the pre-CODIE system, an experimental Crosss-lingual On-Demand Information Extraction system that extracts facts or events of interest from Japanese source text without requiring user knowledge of Japanese.

A Patient Support System based on Crosslingual IR and Semi-supervised Learning
Even though patients are now using the Web to get useful information, the latest medical information is not available in most languages, except English. Even if patients want to learn about current treatments, they do not want to read English documents filled with technical terms. To mitigate this situation, we are building a patient support system that combines crosslingual information retriev...

متن کاملCross-lingual Information Extraction System Evaluation
In this paper, we discuss the performance of crosslingual information extraction systems employing an automatic pattern acquisition module. This module, which creates extraction patterns starting from a user’s narrative task description, allows rapid customization to new extraction tasks. We compare two approaches: (1) acquiring patterns in the source language, performing source language extrac...
متن کاملCross-lingual Information Extraction from Web pages: the use of a general-purpose Text Engineering Platform
In this paper we present how the use of a general-purpose text engineering platform has facilitated the development of a cross-lingual information extraction system and its adaptation to new domains and languages. Our approach for crosslingual information extraction from the Web covers all the way from the identification of Web sites of interest, to the location of the domainspecific Web pages,...
