Bringing Information Extraction out of the Labs: the Pinocchio Environment

Fabio Ciravegna, Alberto Lavelli, Giorgio Satta

Pinocchio is an environment for developing information extraction applications. New applications and languages can be covered by just writing declarative resources. Information is represented uniformly throughout the architecture: all the modules use the same input structure and the same type of declarative resources. Modules are implemented via the same basic processors and share a common environment for resource development and debugging. The result is an environment easy to use with limited training and skills.

Keywords: Natural Language Processing, Information Extraction from Texts
