Supervised Information Extraction (IE) Task

A Supervised Information Extraction (IE) Task is a data-driven IE task that is a supervised learning task.

• AKA: Supervised IE.
• Context:
  • Input: an Annotated Corpus, or a Labeling Pattern.
  • It can be solved by a Supervised Information Extraction System (that implements a Supervised Information Extraction Algorithm.
  • It can range from being a Fully-Supervised Information Extraction Task to being a Semi-Supervised Information Extraction Task.
  • It can range from being a Supervised Information Extraction from Tables Task to being a Supervised Information Extraction from Text Task to being a Supervised Information Extraction from Images Task.
  • It can be supported by a Supervised Text Recognition Task.
  • …
• Example(s):
  • Supervised Person IE.
  • Supervised Semantic Relation Mention Extraction.
  • ...
• Counter-Example(s):
  • an Unsupervised Information Extraction Task.
• See: Supervised Information Retrieval Task, Supervised Semantic Annotation Task.

  • Information Extraction refers to the automatic extraction of structured information such as entities, relationships between entities, and attributes describing entities from unstructured sources. This enables much richer forms of queries on the abundant unstructured sources than possible with keyword searches alone. When structured and unstructured data co-exist, information extraction makes it possible to integrate the two types of sources and pose queries spanning them.
