Dealing with the overwhelming amount of unstructured information present within an organization and in its external sources such as the Web is a crucial challenge for organizations today. This talk will give an introduction to the work on advancing information extraction technology for the effective exploitation of such unstructured text data at Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R).
In the work, the accuracy, adaptability and scalability issues have been addressed on Name Entity Recognition, Co-reference Resolution and Relationship extraction so far. In doing so, various linguistic knowledge and phenomena have been explored on raw and annotated corpus. Supervised and unsupervised machine learning approaches have been used in order to come up with effective solutions to the tasks. Furthermore, various information management applications have being built for competitive intelligence gathering, security information gathering, biomedical information management, and standard enforcement.
