Abstract

In this chapter, the author defines information extraction from text, describes common information extraction tasks, and discusses current information extraction issues being the need to develop technologies that require a minimum of human supervision, to build systems that automatically acquire world knowledge, and to integrate their outputs into advanced information extraction systems. Current emerging research on extraction of narrative scenarios and complex concepts revives an old dream and opens a way to full natural language understanding.
