FSS-TimEx for TempEval-3: Extracting Temporal Information from Text
We describe FSS-TimEx, a module for the recognition and normalization of
temporal expressions we submitted to the Task A and B of the TempEval-3
challenge. FSS-TimEx was developed as part of a multilingual event extraction
system, Nexus, which runs on top of the EMM news processing engine. It consists
of finite-state rule cascades, using minimalistic text processing stages and
simple heuristics to model the relations between events and temporal
expressions. Although FSS-TimEx is already deployed within an IE application in
the medical domain, we found it useful to customize its output to the TimeML
standard in order to have an independent performance measure and guide further
developments.
