Information Extraction for Everyone
Staggering amounts of information are stored in natural language documents, rendering them unavailable to data-science techniques. Information Extraction (IE), a subfield of Natural Language Processing (NLP), aims to automate the extraction of structured information from text, yielding datasets that can be queried, analyzed and combined to provide new insights and drive research forward. Despite tremendous progress in NLP, IE systems remain mostly inaccessible to non-NLP-experts who can greatly benefit from them. This stems from the current methods for creating IE systems: the dominant machine-learning (ML) approach requires technical expertise and large amounts of annotated data, and does…
