GATE-ANNIE

GATE-ANNIE, developed by the GATE group at the University of Sheffield (http;//www.gate.ac.uk; Cunningham et al., 2002,) is an Information Extraction (IE) web service for English. It consists of the following main language processing tools: tokeniser, sentence splitter, POS tagger, coreference resolver and named entity recogniser. The named entity recogniser identifies and categorizes entity names (such as persons, organizations, and location names), temporal expressions (dates and times), and certain types of numerical expressions (monetary values and percentages). GATE-ANNIE returns the fully annotated document in GATE XML format. The file saved by the client contains ANNIE's output in the default AnnotationSet and the input document's HTML or XML mark-up in the "Original markups" AnnotationSet. H. Cunningham, D. Maynard, K.
