The annotation of temporal information in natural language sentences
Graham Katz, Fabrizio Arosio · 2001
The aim of this paper is to present a language-neutral, theory-neutral method for annotating sentence-internal temporal relations. The annotation method is simple and can be applied without special training. The annotations are provided with a well-defined model-theoretic interpretation for use in the content-based comparison of annotations. Temporally annotated corpora have a number of applications, in lexicon/induction, translation and linguistic investigation. A searchable multi-language database has already been created.
