چکیده

One of the growing needs of information extraction (IE) from text is that the IE system must be able to perform enriched inferences in order to discover and extract information. We argue that one reason for the current limitation of the approaches that use semantics for that is that they are based on ontologies that express the characteristics of things represented by names, and seek to draw inferences and to extract information based on such characteristics, disregarding the linguistic praxis (i.e. the uses of the natural language). In this paper, we describe a generic architecture for IE systems based on Semantic Inferentialism. We propose a model that seeks to express the inferential power of concepts and how these concepts, combined in sentence structures, contribute to the inferential power of sentences. We demonstrate the validity of the approach and evaluate it by deploying an application for extracting information about crime reported in on line newspapers.

Information extraction (IE) is a process of automatically providing a structured representation from an unstructured or semi-structured text. It is a long-standing challenge in natural language processing (NLP) which has been intensified by the increased volume of information and heterogeneity, and non-structured form of it. One of the core information extraction tasks is relation extraction wh...

Text clustering and classification are two main tasks of text mining. Feature selection plays the key role in the quality of the clustering and classification results. Although word-based features such as term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) vectors have been widely used in different applications, their shortcoming in capturing semantic concepts of text motivated researches to use...

Named Entity Recognition in Persian Text using Deep Learning

Named entities recognition is a fundamental task in the field of natural language processing. It is also known as a subset of information extraction. The process of recognizing named entities aims at finding proper nouns in the text and classifying them into predetermined classes such as names of people, organizations, and places. In this paper, we propose a named entity recognizer which benefi...
