Umass/hughes: Description of the Circus System Used for Muc-51
نویسندگان
چکیده
The primary goal of our effort is the development of robust and portable language processing capabilities for information extraction applications. The system under evaluation here is based on language processing components that have demonstrated strong performance capabilities in previous evaluations [Lehnert et al. 1992a]. Having demonstrated the general viability of these techniques, we are now concentrating on the practicality of our technology by creating trainable system components to replace hand-coded data and manually-engineered software.

متن کاملDescription of the UMass system as used for MUC-6
Information extraction research at the University of Massachusetts is based on portable, trainable language processing components. Some components are more effective than others, some have been under development longer than others, but in all cases, we are working to eliminate manual knowledge engineering. Although UMass has participated in previous MUC evaluations, all of our information extra...
متن کاملUniversity of Massachusetts: description of the CIRCUS system as used for MUC-4
CIRCUS uses no syntactic grammar and produces no parse tree as it analyzes a sentence . Rather, it uses lexically-indexed syntactic knowledge to segment incoming text into noun phrases, prepositional phrases, and ver b phrases. These constituents are stored in global buffers that track the subjects, verbs, direct objects, and prepositiona l phrases of a sentence. Because we restrict the buffer ...
متن کاملUniversity of Massachusetts: description of the CIRCUS system as used for MUC-3
In 1988 Professor Wendy Lehnert completed the initial implementation of a semantically-oriente d sentence analyzer named CIRCUS [1] . The original design for CIRCUS was motivated by two basic research interests : (1) we wanted to increase the level of syntactic sophistication associated wit h semantically-oriented parsers, and (2) we wanted to integrate traditional symbolic techniques i n natur...
