Structured and Unstructured Information Extraction Using Text Mining and Natural Language Processing Techniques

Information on web is increasing at infinitum. Thus, web has become an unstructured global area where information even if available, cannot be directly used for desired applications. One is often faced with an information overload and demands for some automated help. Information extraction (IE) is the task of automatically extracting structured information from unstructured and/or semi-structured machine-readable documents by means of Text Mining and Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques. Extracted structured information can be used for variety of enterprise or personal level task of varying complexity. The Information Extraction (IE) in also a set of knowledge in order to answer to user consultations using natural language. The system is based on a Fuzzy Logic engine, which takes advantage of its flexibility for managing sets of accumulated knowledge. These sets may be built in hierarchic levels by a tree structure. Information extraction is structured data or knowledge from unstructured text by identifying references to named entities as well as stated relationships between such entities. Data mining research assumes that the information to be “mined” is already in the form of a relational database. IE can serve an important technology for text mining. The knowledge discovered is expressed directly in the documents to be mined, then IE alone can serve as an effective approach to text mining. However, if the documents contain concrete data in unstructured form rather than abstract knowledge, it may be useful to first use IE to transform the unstructured data in the document corpus into a structured database, and then use traditional data mining tools to identify abstract patterns in this extracted data. We propose a novel method for text mining with natural language processing techniques to extract the information from data base with efficient way, where the extraction time and accuracy is measured and plotted with simulation. Where the attributes of entities and relationship entities from structured and semi structured information .Results are compared with conventional methods

A Frame Work for Text Mining using Learned Information Extraction System

INDIAN LANGUAGE TEXT MINING

India is the home of different languages, due to its cultural and geographical diversity. In the Constitution of India, a provision is made for each of the Indian states to choose their own official language for communicating at the state level for official purpose. In India, the growth in consumption of Indian language content started because of growth of electronic devices and technology. The availability of constantly increasing amount of textual data of various Indian regional languages in electronic form has accelerated. But not much work has been done in Indian languages text processing. So there is a huge gap from the stored data to the knowledge that could be constructed from the data. This transition won't occur automatically, that's where Text mining comes into picture. This research is concerned with the study and analyzes the text mining for Indian regional languages Text mining refers to such a knowledge discovery process when the source data under consideration is text. Text mining is a new and exciting research area that tries to solve the information overload problem by using techniques from information retrieval, information extraction as well as natural language processing (NLP) and connects them with the algorithms and methods of KDD, data mining, machine learning and statistics. Some applications of text mining are: document classification, information retrieval, clustering documents, information extraction, and performance evaluation. In this paper we made an attempt to show the need of text mining for Indian language

Application of Biomedical Text Mining

With the enormous volume of biological literature, increasing growth phenomenon due to the high rate of new publications is one of the most common motivations for the biomedical text mining. Aiming at this massive literature to process, it could extract more biological information for mining biomedical knowledge. Using the information will help understand the mechanism of disease generation, promote the development of disease diagnosis technology, and promote the development of new drugs in the field of biomedical research. Based on the background, this chapter introduces the rise of biomedical text mining. Then, it describes the biomedical text-mining technology, namely natural language processing, including the several components. This chapter emphasizes the two aspects in biomedical text mining involving static biomedical information recognization and dynamic biomedical information extraction using instance analysis from our previous works. The aim is to provide a way to quickly understand biomedical text mining for some researchers

Information extraction in text mining

Text mining’s goal, simply put, is to derive information from text. Using multitudes of technologies from overlapping fields like Data Mining and Natural Language Processing we can yield knowledge from our text and facilitate other processing. Information Extraction (IE) plays a large part in text mining when we need to extract this data. In this survey we concern ourselves with general methods borrowed from other fields, with lower-level NLP techniques, IE methods, text representation models, and categorization techniques, and with specific implementations of some of these methods. Finally, with our new understanding of the field we can discuss a proposal for a system that combines WordNet, Wikipedia, and extracted definitions and concepts from web pages into a user-friendly search engine designed for topicspecific knowledge

Automatic Keyword Extraction from Dravidian Language

Keywords are significant words in a document that gives description of its content to the reader. They provide the summary of a document. Now a days the amount of electronic text increases rapidly in all the languages. So the text mining applications take the advantage of keywords for processing documents. There are few proposed methods for keyword extraction. But not much work has been done in keyword extraction for Indian languages. With exponential increase in the information in Indian languages on the web, automatic information processing and retrieval become an urgent need. Text Mining is essential for knowledge discovery from valuable texts available in many Indian languages. This paper introduces a method, which extracts the keywords from Dravidian languages of India like Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada. We made an attempt to extract the keywords by using words statistics of a documen

Large-scale event extraction from literature with multi-level gene normalization

Text mining for the life sciences aims to aid database curation, knowledge summarization and information retrieval through the automated processing of biomedical texts. To provide comprehensive coverage and enable full integration with existing biomolecular database records, it is crucial that text mining tools scale up to millions of articles and that their analyses can be unambiguously linked to information recorded in resources such as UniProt, KEGG, BioGRID and NCBI databases. In this study, we investigate how fully automated text mining of complex biomolecular events can be augmented with a normalization strategy that identifies biological concepts in text, mapping them to identifiers at varying levels of granularity, ranging from canonicalized symbols to unique gene and proteins and broad gene families. To this end, we have combined two state-of-the-art text mining components, previously evaluated on two community-wide challenges, and have extended and improved upon these methods by exploiting their complementary nature. Using these systems, we perform normalization and event extraction to create a large-scale resource that is publicly available, unique in semantic scope, and covers all 21.9 million PubMed abstracts and 460 thousand PubMed Central open access full-text articles. This dataset contains 40 million biomolecular events involving 76 million gene/protein mentions, linked to 122 thousand distinct genes from 5032 species across the full taxonomic tree. Detailed evaluations and analyses reveal promising results for application of this data in database and pathway curation efforts. The main software components used in this study are released under an open-source license. Further, the resulting dataset is freely accessible through a novel API, providing programmatic and customized access (http://www.evexdb.org/api/v001/). Finally, to allow for large-scale bioinformatic analyses, the entire resource is available for bulk download from http://evexdb.org/download/, under the Creative Commons -Attribution - Share Alike (CC BY-SA) license

Structuring and extracting knowledge for the support of hypothesis generation in molecular biology

Background: Hypothesis generation in molecular and cellular biology is an empirical process in which knowledge derived from prior experiments is distilled into a comprehensible model. The requirement of automated support is exemplified by the difficulty of considering all relevant facts that are contained in the millions of documents available from PubMed. Semantic Web provides tools for sharing prior knowledge, while information retrieval and information extraction techniques enable its extraction from literature. Their combination makes prior knowledge available for computational analysis and inference. While some tools provide complete solutions that limit the control over the modeling and extraction processes, we seek a methodology that supports control by the experimenter over these critical processes. Results: We describe progress towards automated support for the generation of biomolecular hypotheses. Semantic Web technologies are used to structure and store knowledge, while a workflow extracts knowledge from text. We designed minimal proto-ontologies in OWL for capturing different aspects of a text mining experiment: the biological hypothesis, text and documents, text mining, and workflow provenance. The models fit a methodology that allows focus on the requirements of a single experiment while supporting reuse and posterior analysis of extracted knowledge from multiple experiments. Our workflow is composed of services from the 'Adaptive Information Disclosure Application' (AIDA) toolkit as well as a few others. The output is a semantic model with putative biological relations, with each relation linked to the corresponding evidence. Conclusion: We demonstrated a 'do-it-yourself' approach for structuring and extracting knowledge in the context of experimental research on biomolecular mechanisms. The methodology can be used to bootstrap the construction of semantically rich biological models using the results of knowledge extraction processes. Models specific to particular experiments can be constructed that, in turn, link with other semantic models, creating a web of knowledge that spans experiments. Mapping mechanisms can link to other knowledge resources such as OBO ontologies or SKOS vocabularies. AIDA Web Services can be used to design personalized knowledge extraction procedures. In our example experiment, we found three proteins (NF-Kappa B, p21, and Bax) potentially playing a role in the interplay between nutrients and epigenetic gene regulation
