Current Contributions

-Added "start" and "end" parameters for each statement, so that different statements within a sentence can be located. -Now performs an analysis to create disjoint statements. The algorithm uses a greedy approach to find the maximum number of disjoint statements within a sentence that include an ARG0, an ARG1 and a B-V.

To Do

-Named Entity Recognition at the start

-Coreference Resolution supported by NER - Choose the representation for all words, that are assigned the same meaning, as a named entity, if one is found within those words. Otherwise choose the first appearance.

-Combine multiple statements within a sentence and between sentences using RELATIOn-indicators, such as "and", "therefore", "because",...
