Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for information extraction using natural language processing. One of the methods includes determining, for one or more tokens from a plurality of tokens that represent an unstructured sentence, a token type from a plurality of predetermined token types that indicates an element type for a phrase that corresponds to the token and has one or more properties using dependency data and a part-of-speech label for the token; assigning, for a token whose associated dependency data indicates that the token has a child, data for the child token to one of the one or more properties for the token type of the token; and providing, for use by a downstream semantic system and for the token, a textual representation of the phrase for the token and the phrases for one or more of the child tokens.
