Abstract

Over the past five MUCs, New York University has clung faithfully to the idea that information extraction should begin with a phase of full syntactic analysis, followed by a semantic analysis of the syntactic structure. Because we have a good, broad-coverage English grammar and a moderately effective method for recovering from parse failures, this approach held us in fairly good stead.
