Information Extraction Task Definition
For any given IE scenario, the following will be provided:
NARRATIVE.
Paragraph that briefly describes the scenario topic and the relevance criteria. The narrative will be used by the evaluation designers in formulating a text retrieval query that will return candidate test set documents from the MUC-6 corpus.
BNF DEFINITION.
Will include one or more of the Template Element objects or slots defined in this document, plus any scenario-specific and relational objects needed for the scenario. Primarily defines the syntax of the template.
FILL RULES.
Will describe the reporting conditions and the semantics of each object and slot. The Template Element objects will have separate minimum conditions and slot descriptions that are available during the first stage of evaluation; additional reporting conditions may be imposed in the Fill Rules for a particular scenario (e.g., instead of reporting all organizations, a scenario may only require reporting airplane manufacturing companies).
EXAMPLE BASE.
A set of N texts with accompanying filled-out templates (for both subtasks).
