TIPSTER/MUC-5 Information Extraction System Evaluation
نویسنده
چکیده
Three information extraction system evaluations using Tipster data were conducted in the context of Phase 1 of the Tipster Text program. Interim evaluations were conducted in September, 1992, and February, 1993; the final evaluation was conducted in July, 1993. The final evaluation included not only the Tipster-supported inform~on extraction contractors but thirteen other participants as well. This evaluation was the topic of the Fifth Message Understanding Conference (MUC-5) in August, 1993. With particular respect to the research and development tasks of the Tipster contractors, the goal of these evaluations has been to assess success in terms of the development of systems to work in both English and Japanese (BBN, GE/CMU, and NMSU/Brandeis) and/or in both the joint ventures and microelectronics domains (BBN, GE/CMU, NMSU/Brandeis, and UMass/Hughes).
