Title:       History-based joint entity and relation extraction from texts

Abstract:

Extracting semantic relations between entities in natural language
texts is a crucial step in natural language understanding. This
extraction has often been treated as a pipeline of two separate tasks,
namely named entity recognition and relation classification, which
ignores dependencies between and inside the tasks. In this talk, I
will first present my approach on joint extraction of entities and
relations from texts. This approach employs a structured supervised
learning with inexact search. It can treat the dependencies mentioned
above as global features. Then, I will show current results and
limitations, and discuss possible extensions.
