Building Structured Databases of Factual Knowledge from Massive Text Corpora

Summary: Minimally-supervised, domain- and language-independent extraction of entities, relations, and attributes to build StructDBs from text corpora. Demonstrates scalable cross-domain StructDB construction across news, social, biomedical, and business data with reduced labeling, enabling exploration and knowledge discovery.
