  • In this section, we concentrated on the extraction of binary relationship. A natural extension is to the extraction of records involving multi-way relationships. Record extraction is significantly more complicated since binary relations are assumed to be at sentence level, whereas multiway relationships span sentences. On natural language text this makes it necessary to perform cross sentence analysis involving co-reference resolution and discourse analysis. We refer the reader to [148, 218] for existing work on this topic.
