Title: Information extraction from scientific literature with knowledge bases

Abstract:
In various fields of science and technology, such as biomedical and materials science, new discoveries are published daily in the literature, and various knowledge bases are manually curated based on the literature. In order to reduce this labor, research on information extraction from the literature using natural language processing technology has been conducted. In this lecture, we will review the task settings and techniques for information extraction from literature, introduce recent efforts to improve extraction performance using knowledge bases, and discuss future prospects.
