Abstract
Methods and apparatus are described herein for generating and applying event data extraction templates. In various implementations, a set of structural paths may be identified from a corpus of communications. A first structural path of the set of structural paths, associated with a first segment of text, may be classified as transient in response to a determination that a frequency of occurrences of the first segment of text across the corpus satisfies a criterion. Event heuristics may be applied to the communications of the corpus. A determination may be made, based on the applying, that the communications of the corpus are event-related. An event data type may be assigned to the transient structural path based on the applying. An event data extraction template may be generated to extract, from one or more subsequent communications, one or more event-related segments of text associated with the transient structural path.
