Semantic Sentence Annotation Label

A Semantic Sentence Annotation Label is a sentence annotation label for semantically annotated sentences (that captures the semantic meaning or function of a sentence within a specific context, such as a legal document or contract).

• Context:
  • It can (typically) be used to enhance the understanding and analysis of text by identifying the specific role each sentence plays in a document.
  • It can (often) be part of a larger Document Annotation Framework that supports tasks like Natural Language Processing (NLP), Contract Review, and Textual Analysis.
  • It can range from being a simple Sentence Type Label (e.g., Statement, Question, Command) to a more complex Context-Specific Sentence Label (e.g., Obligation Sentence Label, Condition Sentence Label).
  • It can assist in the development of Machine Learning Models for tasks like Sentence Classification, where understanding the semantic role of a sentence is crucial.
  • It can (typically) be applied in domains such as legal contracts, biomedical texts, and regulatory documents to identify key obligations, conditions, permissions, or declarations within the text.
  • It can be leveraged in Text Analytics to extract actionable insights from large corpora of documents by identifying patterns in sentence-level annotations.
  • It can (often) support the creation of Semantic Knowledge Graphs, where sentences are linked based on their annotated meanings, aiding in the organization and retrieval of information.
  • ...
• Example(s):
  • Domain-Specific Semantic Sentence Annotation Labels, such as:
    • Legal-Domain Semantic Sentence Annotation Labels, such as:
      • Obligation Sentence Label (marks a contractual obligation sentence), such as INDEMNIFICATION_OBLIGATION.
      • Condition Sentence Label (marks a contract condition sentence), such as PAYMENT_DEADLINE_CONDITION.
      • Permission Sentence Label (marks a contract permission sentence), such as SUBLET_PERMISSION.
      • Declaration Sentence Label (marks a contract declaration sentence), such as GOVERNING_LAW_DECLARATION.
    • Medical-Domain Semantic Sentence Annotation Labels, such as:
      • Diagnosis Sentence Label (marks a medical diagnosis sentence), such as DIABETES_DIAGNOSIS.
      • Treatment Sentence Label (marks a medical treatment sentence), such as INSULIN_THERAPY_TREATMENT.
      • Symptom Description Label (marks a medical symptom description sentence), such as FREQUENT_URINATION_SYMPTOM.
      • Prognosis Sentence Label (marks a medical prognosis sentence), such as POSITIVE_DIABETES_PROGNOSIS.
    • Customer Service-Domain Semantic Sentence Annotation Labels, such as:
      • Complaint Sentence Label (marks a customer complaint sentence), such as DAMAGED_PRODUCT_COMPLAINT.
      • Resolution Sentence Label (marks a customer service resolution sentence), such as REPLACEMENT_ITEM_RESOLUTION.
      • Inquiry Sentence Label (marks a customer inquiry sentence), such as REFUND_STATUS_INQUIRY.
      • Feedback Sentence Label (marks a customer feedback sentence), such as POSITIVE_CUSTOMER_FEEDBACK.
  • Open-Domain Semantic Sentence Annotation Labels, such as:
    • Statement Label (marks a general statement sentence), such as SKY_IS_BLUE_STATEMENT.
    • Question Label (marks a general question sentence), such as MEETING_TIME_QUESTION.
    • Command Label (marks a general command sentence), such as SUBMIT_REPORT_COMMAND.
  • ...
• Counter-Example(s):
  • Document Structure Label, which identifies the structural components of a document (e.g., headings, sections) rather than the content of individual sentences.
  • General Annotation Label, which may apply to broader document elements or sections without specifically capturing the semantic meaning of individual sentences.
  • Non-Semantic Annotation Label, such as Stylistic Annotation Label, which focuses on style or formatting rather than meaning or function.
