Qualitative Temporal Reasoning about Vague Events
The temporal boundaries of many real–world events are inherently vague. In this paper, we discuss the problem of qualitative temporal reasoning about such vague events. We show ...

Acquiring Vague Temporal Information from the Web
Many real–world information needs are naturally formulated as queries with temporal constraints. However, the structured temporal background information needed to support such c...

Modeling and Learning Vague Event Durations for Temporal Reasoning
This paper reports on our recent work on modeling and automatically extracting vague, implicit event durations from text (Pan et al., 2006a, 2006b). It is a kind of commonsense kn...
