SUTime: A library for recognizing and normalizing time expressions
Proceedings of the Eighth International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2012)
Abstract
We describe SUTIME, a temporal tagger for recognizing and normalizing temporal expressions in English text. SUTIME is available as part of the Stanford CoreNLP pipeline and can be used to annotate documents with temporal information. It is a deterministic rule-based system designed for extensibility. Testing on the TempEval-2 evaluation corpus shows that this system outperforms state-of-the-art techniques.
