โœฆ Synopsis


Abstract

In this work we present an automatic method for the extraction of time periods related to ontological concepts from the Web. The method consists of two parts: an Information Extraction phase and a Semantic Representation phase. In the Information Extraction phase, temporal information about events that are associated with the target instance are extracted from Web documents. The resulting distribution is normalized and a model is fit to it. This distribution is then converted into a Semantic Representation in the second phase. We present the method and describe experiments where time periods for four different types of concepts are extracted and converted to a time representation vocabulary, based on the TIMEX2 annotation standard.
