Temporal Information Processing: A Survey
Ines Berrazega · International Journal on Natural Language Computing · 2012
Temporal Information Processing is a subfield of Natural Language Processing, valuable in many tasks like Question Answering and Summarization.Temporal Information Processing is broadened, ranging from classical theories of time and language to current computational approaches for Temporal Information Extraction.This later trend consists on the automatic extraction of events and temporal expressions.Such issues have attracted great attention especially with the development of annotated corpora and annotations schemes mainly TimeBank and TimeML.In this paper, we give a survey of Temporal Information Extraction from Natural Language texts.
