Abstract

With the advent of the Internet, the daily production of digital text in the form of social media, emails, blogs, news items, books, research papers, and Q&A forums has increased significantly. This unstructured or semi-structured text contains a huge amount of information. Information Extraction (IE) can extract meaningful information from text sources and present it in a structured format. The sub-tasks of IE include Named Entity Recognition (NER), Event Extraction, Relation Extraction (RE), Sentiment Extraction, Opinion Extraction, Terminology Extraction, Reference Extraction, and so on.One way to represent information in the text is in the form of entities and relations representing links between entities. The Entity Extraction task identifies entities from the text, and the Relation Extraction (RE) task can identify relationships between those entities. Many NLP applications can benefit from relational information derived from natural language, including Structured Search, Knowledge Base (KB) population, Information Retrieval, Question-Answering, Language Understanding, Ontology Learning, etc. This survey covers (1) basic concepts of Relation Extraction; (2) various Relation Extraction methodologies; (3) Deep Learning techniques for Relation Extraction; and (4) different datasets that can be used to evaluate the RE system.
