A method for refining a dictionary for information extraction, the operations including: inputting a set of extracted results from execution of an extractor comprising the dictionary on a collection of text, wherein the extracted results are labeled as correct results or incorrect results; processing the extracted results using an algorithm configured to set a score of the extractor above a score threshold, wherein the score threshold balances a precision and a recall of the extractor; and outputting a set of candidate dictionary entries corresponding to a full set of dictionary entries, wherein the candidate dictionary entries are candidates to be removed from the dictionary based on the extracted results. |
