Many text mining techniques have been pro-posed for mining useful patterns in text documents. However, how to effectively extract and use attributes from unstructured data is still an open research issue. Event attribute extraction is a challenging research area with broad application in the field of data mining and other related field because of the importance of decision making from the hidden knowledge/patterns discovered from the textual data, for example, in crime detection: where events are extracted from an eyewitness report to concisely identify what happened during a crime. In this work, we present our approach to extracting these events based on the dependency parse tree relations of the text and its part of speech (POS). The proposed method uses a machine learning algorithm to predict events from a text. The preliminary result of the experiment run with WEKA tool shows that more than 90% of events can be predicted based on POS and the dependency relations (DepR) of a sentence.Keywords: Events; Part of Speech; Classification; Data; PredictionVol. 26 No 1, June 2019
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
