Title
Information extraction research and applications: current progress and future directions
Abstract
Analysts face a daunting task: they must accurately analyze, categorize, and assimilate a large body of information from a variety of sources and for a variety of domains of interest. The complexity of the task necessitates a variety of information access and extraction tools which technology up to this point has not been able to provide. SRI's TIPSTER Phase III project has focused on two major obstacles to the development of such tools: inadequate degrees of accuracy and portability. We begin by providing an overview of SRI's information extraction (IE) system, FASTUS, and then describe our efforts in these two areas in turn. We then conclude with some thoughts concerning future directions.
