Towards Task-Based Temporal Extraction and Recognition

pdf-format:
Dokument 1.pdf (218 KB)

Abstract

We seek to improve the robustness and portability of temporal information extraction systems by incorporating data-driven techniques. We present two sets of experiments pointing us in this direction. The first shows that machine-learning-based recognition of temporal expressions not only achieves high accuracy on its own but can also improve rule-based normalization. The second makes use of a staged normalization architecture to experiment with machine learned classifiers for certain disambiguation sub-tasks within the normalization task.
