Abstract

This document describes the information used for summarization-inspired temporal-relation extraction [Dorr and Gaasterland, 2007]. We present a set of tense/aspect extraction templates that are applied to a Penn Treebank-style analysis of the input sentence. We also present an analysis of tense-pair combinations for different temporal connectives based on a corpus analysis of complex tense structures in Treebank-3. Finally, we include analysis charts and temporal relation tables for all combinations of intervals/points for each legal BTS combinations.
