Title: Web-Scale Domain-Specific Information Extraction

Abstract: Information Extraction (IE) from unstructured texts is a technology 
with growing importance in many applications. Three important challenges 
to IE are the achievement of high quality results, scalability of methods to 
very large corpora, and integration of IEresults with other data for downstream analysis. 
In this talk, we will highlight recent advances and open questions in these areas 
by drawing from extensive experiences in developing and applying IE for biomedical research.
