Abstract

In a computing device that defines a rule for natural language processing of text, annotated text is selected from a first document of a plurality of annotated documents. An entity rule type is selected from a plurality of entity rule types. An argument of the selected entity rule type is identified. A value for the identified argument is randomly selected based on the selected annotated text to generate a rule instance. The generated rule instance is applied to remaining documents of the plurality of annotated documents. A rule performance measure is computed based on application of the generated rule instance. The generated rule instance and the computed rule performance measure are stored for application to other documents.
