MinScIE: Citation-centered Open Information Extraction

An Open Information Extraction (OIE) system which provides structured knowledge enriched with semantic information about citations. This system is based upon the OIE system MinIE.

Open Information Extraction (OIE)

Open Information Extraction (OIE) systems aim to extract unseen relations and their arguments from unstructured text in unsupervised manner. In its simplest form, given a natural language sentence, they extract information in the form of a triple, consisted of subject (S), relation (R) and object (O).

Suppose we have the following input sentence:

AMD, which is based in U.S., is a technology company.

An OIE system aims to make the following extractions:

("AMD"; "is based in"; "U.S.")
("AMD"; "is"; "technology company")
