A Modular Approach for Multilingual Timex Detection and Normalization using Deep Learning and Grammar-based methods

Detecting and normalizing temporal expressions is an essential step for many NLP tasks. While a variety of methods have been proposed for detection, best normalization approaches rely on hand-crafted rules. Furthermore, …

Dataset and Baseline System for Multi-lingual Extraction and Normalization of Temporal and Numerical Expressions

Temporal and numerical expression understanding is of great importance in many downstream Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Information Retrieval (IR) tasks. However, much previous work covers only a few sub-types an…

Chrono at SemEval-2018 Task 6: A System for Normalizing Temporal Expressions

Temporal information extraction is a challenging task. Here we describe Chrono, a hybrid rule-based and machine learning system that identifies temporal expressions in text and normalizes them into the SCATE schema. Afte…

From Characters to Time Intervals: New Paradigms for Evaluation and Neural Parsing of Time Normalizations

This paper presents the first model for time normalization trained on the SCATE corpus. In the SCATE schema, time expressions are annotated as a semantic composition of time entities. This novel schema favors machine lea…

Normalization of Relative and Incomplete Temporal Expressions in Clinical Narratives

We analyze the RI-TIMEXes in temporally annotated corpora and propose two hypotheses regarding the normalization of RI-TIMEXes in the clinical narrative domain: the anchor point hypothesis and the anchor relation hypothe…

TIMEN: An Open Temporal Expression Normalisation Resource

Temporal expressions are words or phrases that describe a point, duration or recurrence in time. Automatically annotating these expressions is a research goal of increasing interest. Recognising them can be achieved with…
