To help researchers investigate relation extraction, we’re releasing a human-judged dataset of two relations about public figures on Wikipedia: nearly 10,000 examples of “place of birth”, and over 40,000 examples of “attended or graduated from an institution”. Each of these was judged by at least 5 raters, and can be used to train or evaluate relation extraction systems. We also plan to release more relations of new types in the coming months.
This is the home page of the ParsCit project, which performs reference string parsing, sometimes also called citation parsing or citation extraction. It is architected as a supervised machine learning procedure that uses Conditional Random Fields as its learning mechanism. You can download the code below, parse strings online, or send batch jobs to our web service (coming soon!). The code contains both the training data, feature generator and shell scripts to connect the system to a web service (used here too).
This is the project page for SecondString, an open-source Java-based package of approximate string-matching techniques. This code was developed by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University from the Center for Automated Learning and Discovery, the Department of Statistics, and the Center for Computer and Communications Security.
SecondString is intended primarily for researchers in information integration and other scientists. It does or will include a range of string-matching methods from a variety of communities, including statistics, artificial intelligence, information retrieval, and databases. It also includes tools for systematically evaluating performance on test data. It is not designed for use on very large data sets.
