Towards Developing Effective Fact Extractors

Résumé du livre

DSTO has a program of research into automated text processing. Part of this research has led to the development of a prototype information extraction system known as the DSTO Fact Extractor System. This system can be used to extract interesting information from free text documents. Part of applying the DSTO technology involves a skilled user developing a set of one or more fact extractors that control the behaviour of the information extraction engine. These fact extractors are developed with the aid of an integrated development environment known as the Fact Extractor Workbench. This report uses a range of examples to discuss the issues that must be considered when developing fact extractors.
