ABSTRACT
In this paper, we describe HeidelTime, a system for the extraction and normalization of temporal expressions. HeidelTime is a rule-based system mainly using regular expression patterns for the extraction of temporal expressions and knowledge resources as well as linguistic clues for their normalization. In the TempEval-2 challenge, HeidelTime achieved the highest F-Score (86%) for the extraction and the best results in assigning the correct value attribute, i.e., in understanding the semantics of the temporal expressions.

KUL: Recognition and normalization of temporal expressions
SemEval '10: Proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Semantic EvaluationIn this paper we describe a system for the recognition and normalization of temporal expressions (Task 13: TempEval-2, Task A). The recognition task is approached as a classification problem of sentence constituents and the normalization is implemented ...
Normalisation of imprecise temporal expressions extracted from text
AbstractInformation extraction systems and techniques have been largely used to deal with the increasing amount of unstructured data available nowadays. Time is among the different kinds of information that may be extracted from such unstructured data ...
