"text": "The Message Handler identifies an individual MUC message unit and controls the flow o f operations of the whole system for one message . It reads sentences, and sends one sentence at a time to the ITP Natural Language Understanding Module . It prunes temporal and locative expressions, which are added back later to modify events . The ITP NLU Module parses one sentence, and maps its parse tree onto a Discourse Representation Structure (DRS) [8] , [1] . This DRS is added to the DRS for the whole segment . Temporal/locative reasoning, anaphora resolutio n and discourse segmentation operate upon this larger DRS. When reading sentences for one message is completed, the Message Handler receives the resulting analysis from the ITP NL U Module . The resulting Cognitive Model is a segmented discourse structure for the whole message . The Message Handler sends one discourse segment at a time to the MUC3 Template Reasonin g Module . It fills all of the possible templates based on the information in the segment . Intelligent Text Processing (ITP) accepts at face value the complexity of natural language, an d applies deep natural language understanding techniques . Natural language is both highly ambiguous (the same pattern means many different things), and redundant (the same meaning ca n be expressed with many different patterns) . ITP's Natural Language Understanding Module , which had been prototyped before MUC-3, analyzes this complex structure, and unravels it s meaning layer by layer . It builds a Cognitive Model of the text content which is an unambiguous logical form . The Cognitive Model tracks entities and events across the discourse, reflects the connections between events, and separates discourse segments . The result is a refined, precise interpretation of text content .",

"text": "Text cannot be disambiguated or interpreted without world knowledge . The construction of knowledge bases for natural language understanding has been the main bottleneck in the field [9] . ITP's approach, founded upon Naive Semantic Theory [4] , associates a shallow layer of worl d knowledge with every word . The form of the knowledge derives from cognitive psychologica l research [10] , [3] , [7] . Constraints on the amount of knowledge have been discovered in th e process of building a computational text understanding system . The Naive Semantic lexico n contains two types of information, ontological and generic . Ontological information classifie s objects and events into the main distinctions people recognize, such as real vs abstract and natura l vs social . Generic information includes properties of objects embassies play a role in diplomacy and implications of events bombing typically results in damage. Word senses are distinguished , making the interpretation very precise . This word-based lexicon makes ITP's knowledg e engineering effort completely transportable. All of the lexicon moved over unchanged into MUC-3, and the MUC-3 knowledge engineering effort required the addition of only 240 new words . The Naive Semantic Lexicon informs algorithms at all levels of analysis : structural disambiguation , word sense disambiguation, formal semantic translation, and discourse-level anaphora resolution, coherence reasoning and segmentation.",

"text": "The flow of a message through the module is depicted in Figure 2 . Sentences of a message are passed one at a time to the parser . It assigns a single structure to the sentence . ITP's disambiguation modules reform the structure and select word senses . This prevents th e combinatorial explosion which slows down competitor systems . Next the Sentential Formal Semantic Module translates each sentence into a partial DRS . This step takes the English into a form very close to first order logic, and incorporates the effects of operators such as negatio n which vitally alter the interpretation. Next the Discourse Formal Semantic Module adds eac h sentence to the overall DRS for the text. At this point the entities and events in the new sentenc e are linked up with those in prior sentences . The time course of events in the text is traced b y temporal reasoning . Only the sentences within a given segment are considered in the anaphori c and temporal reasoning. A more sophisticated method under development would extract a discourse tree in which dominating segments contribute to anaphoric reasoning . (Chomsky 1981 ) is under development. It will disambiguate words and structur e during parsing, solving the combinatorial explosion problem .) The loaner parser ITP used for MUC-3 assigns a single X-bar type parse to the sentence . The ITP Prepositional Phrase Attachment Algorithm reforms the parse to select the correct structure in sentences with post-verba l PP's. A post-verbal PP introduces three possible parses, as in Figure 3 . In The guerrillas attacke d the outpost with fury, the PP modifies the sentence. In The guerrillas attacked the outpost with grenades, the PP modifies the verb phrase . In The guerrillas attacked the outpost with a sentry, the PP modifies the noun phrase the outpost. The ITP Prepositional Phrase Disambiguation Algorith m selects the correct attachment using preposition-specific rules and the Naive Semantic Lexicon [6] . Next, the ITP Word Sense Disambiguation Algorithm selects the appropriate senses of words . It takes into account fixed and frequent phrases, syntactic context and semantic context . For example, in the first sentence of message 99, the verb bomb has two readings, one which refers to a physical act, and another which refers to the social process of failure . The second reading i s intransitive, but the verb bomb in S2 has an object . Thus the algorithm selects the first reading . ",

Pruned S l of message 99, Terrorists bombed the embassies of the PRC and the Soviet Union, contains terrorists, embassies, PRC, Soviet Union and an event of bombing which relates the terrorists and the embassies . A translation function converts the parse into a DRS as in Figure 4 . The graphical representation of a DRS is a box with a list of indexed entities ascribing objects and events which are introduced into the discourse (el,gl ...) and a list of conditions which are first-order representations of propertie s and relations expressed in sentences . Thus we see in the top portion of the DRS an event el i n which the entity gl (terrorists) relates to the entity thel (embassies) in an bombing event in whic h entity g l does the bombing and entity thel is bombed . Similarly, the event el occurred tonigh t (the same date as the message dateline) . With this DRS, it is easy to infer that a sentence the Maoist Shining Path group or the Guevaris t Tupac Amaru Revolutionary Movement group carried out the attacks is not asserted as true in the message . Its corresponding proposition is embedded under the modal operator which introduces a possible world . Therefore, this representation allows ITP to correctly provide an empt y PERPETRATOR slot for the second bombing incident.",

At the beginning of processing one message, the unit determines a reporting time an d a reporting location for the message . In the processing of individual sentences, the unit check s whether new temporal/locative information is stored in the database by the Pruner in the Messag e Handler. If so, it retrieves the information, and converts it into appropriate predicates representin g the original expressions . Temporal expressions are processed similarly and are represented by a predicate 'event time' , 'reference time', and 'reporting time .' These predicates have four arguments : 1) an event marke r for which this temporal information is attributed; 2) a tense operator representing a precedence relation between two events such as <, =<, >, >_, A; 3) a universal representation of Year, Month , Day, and Day Name; 4) an absolute temporal value . We make three way distinctions among various temporal expressions : absolute time expressions such as July 15, 1989, relative time expressions such as two days earlier, and relative to reporting time expressions such as 3 months ago. Parallel to the explicit knowledge representation for locative information, tempora l expressions are converted to absolute temporal values which represent a number of hours since 00:00 January 1, 1 . For example, October 25, 1989 has an absolute temporal value of 17433936, as shown in Figure 4 . The absolute value and the universal representation of time is used i n computation of precise ordering relations among event times .",
