Description of the UMass system as used for MUC-6

چکیده
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 extraction software has been redesigned and rewritten since MUC-5, so we are evaluating a completely new system this year.

University of Massachusetts: MUC-4 test results and analysis
The UMass/MUC-4 system is based on a form of sentence analysis known as selective concept extraction . This approach to language processing is distinguished by a minimal reliance on syntactic sentenc e analysis, along with a minimal dictionary customized to operate in a limited domain . Last year, the UMass/MUC-3 system demonstrated the viability of selective concept extraction, but serious que...

متن کاملUniversity of Durham: Description of the LOLITA system as Used in MUC-7
LOLITA has been designed in such a way that the code implementing the MUC tasks is only a small part of the whole system. A core system provides complex facilities with the MUC system being built so that it utilises these facilities. Hence, after some background to the LOLITA project, the ‘core’ of LOLITA is described. This system description is substantially similar to that given for MUC-6 [1]...
متن کاملDescription of the UPENN CAMP System as Used for Coreference
Scoring the performance of a system is an extremely important aspect of coreference algorithm performance. The score for a particular run is the single strongest measure of how well the system is performing and it can strongly determine directions for further improvements. In this paper, we present several di erent scoring algorithms and detail their respective strengths and weaknesses for vary...
