Systems and methods are provided for enabling users to work with TimeML annotations and perform advanced temporal analysis, offering a comprehensive suite of features. Systems and methods of embodiments allow users to parse TimeML annotations, construct TimeML graphs, and execute the timeline extraction (TLEX) algorithm to effect complete timeline extraction. An algorithm can be incorporated for increasing connectivity in temporal graphs, which identifies graph disconnectivity and recommends links based on temporal reasoning, thereby enhancing the coherence of the graph representation. Also, a built-in validation algorithm can be included, ensuring compliance with TimeML annotation guidelines.

Systems and methods for performing temporal analysis

Systems and methods for quantifying temporal indeterminacy of timelines are provided. Systems and methods can rely on solving temporal constraint problems to extract timelines and can calculate the temporal relation loss during timeline transformation and then identify the temporal indeterminate sections of extracted timelines from both timelines and temporal graphs to measure the total temporal information loss.
