Knowledge generation
“Einstein, who has published more than 300 scientific papers, won the Nobel
Prize for Physics in 1921”
using a semantic dependency parser
named entity recognizer (NER)
extract and generalize type-based patterns such as
– “scientists publish papers”
– “scientists win Nobel prizes”
– “Nobel prizes are associated with subjects and years”
– etc …
resulting knowledge base can be directly used to answer questions
– “Who won a nobel prize in 1921 at the age of 42?”
