Abstract
A system and method of developing rules for text processing enable retrieval of instances of named entities in a predetermined semantic relation (such as the DATE and PLACE of an EVENT) by extracting patterns from text strings in which attested examples of named entities satisfying the semantic relation occur. The patterns are generalized to form rules which can be added to the existing rules of a syntactic parser and subsequently applied to text to find candidate instances of other named entities in the predetermined semantic relation.
