Extraction and Representation of Financial Entities from Text.

Abstract

In our modern society, almost all events, processes, and decisions in a corporation are documented by internal written communication, legal filings, or business and financial news. The valuable knowledge in such collections is not directly accessible by computers as they mostly consist of unstructured text. This chapter provides an overview of corpora commonly used in research, highlights related work, and state-of-the-art approaches to extract and represent financial entities and relations. The second part of this chapter considers applications based on knowledge graphs of automatically extracted facts. Traditional information retrieval systems typically require the user to have prior knowledge of the data. Suitable visualization techniques can overcome this requirement and enable users to explore large sets of documents. Furthermore, data mining techniques can be used to enrich or filter knowledge graphs. This information can augment source documents and guide exploration processes. Systems for document exploration are tailored to specific tasks, such as investigative work in audits or legal discovery, monitoring compliance, or providing information in a retrieval system to support decisions.
