2000 Evaluation (ACE Phase 1 2000) Entity Detection and Tracking (EDT)
The ACE research objectives are viewed as the detection and characterization
of Entities, Relations, and Events. The ACE pilot study
begins the technology R&D effort by focusing on entity detection in phase
1. This task is being defined so as to support applications as well as
to provide a basis for further development in extracting relations and
events. The Entity Detection task requires that selected types of entities mentioned
in the source data be detected and that selected attributes of these entities
be extracted and merged into a unified representation for each entity.
Tracking of entities across document boundaries will be deferred until
after the initial phase.
The pilot study (EDT phase-1) concluded with an evaluation and final
worshop in May 2000. At this meeting it was decided to support further
system development on the EDT task. This effort was discussed at the ACE
Kickoff Meeting held on 29 Nov. through 1 Dec. 2000. The
agenda contains links to the presentations given at this meeting.
