Learning Script Knowledge with Web Experiments
Michaela Regneri, Alexander Koller, Manfred Pinkal · 2010
We describe a novel approach to unsupervised learning of the events that make up a script, along with constraints on their temporal ordering. We collect naturallanguage descriptions of script-specific event sequences from volunteers over the Internet. Then we compute a graph representation of the script’s temporal structure using a multiple sequence alignment algorithm. The evaluation of our system shows that we outperform two informed baselines. 1
