Approaches
Three standard approaches are now widely accepted
- Hand-written regular expressions (perhaps stacked)
- Using classifiers
- Generative: naïve Bayes classifier
- Discriminative: maximum entropy models
- Sequence models
- Hidden Markov model
- CMMs/MEMMs
- Conditional random fields (CRF) are commonly used in conjunction with IE for tasks as varied as extracting information from research papers to extracting navigation instructions.
Numerous other approaches exist for IE including hybrid approaches that combine some of the standard approaches previously listed.

Famous quotes containing the word approaches:
“Someone approaches to say his life is ruined
and to fall down at your feet
and pound his head upon the sidewalk.”
—David Ignatow (b. 1914)
“You should approach Joyce’s Ulysses as the illiterate Baptist preacher approaches the Old Testament: with faith.”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)
“If I commit suicide, it will not be to destroy myself but to put myself back together again. Suicide will be for me only one means of violently reconquering myself, of brutally invading my being, of anticipating the unpredictable approaches of God. By suicide, I reintroduce my design in nature, I shall for the first time give things the shape of my will.”
—Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)
