Federal Project Grant Award Summary The National Science Foundation's Division of Information and Intelligent Systems awarded $536,380 to the University of California, Davis on October 1, 2025, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program for a CAREER project entitled "Towards Open World Event Knowledge Extraction with Weak Supervision." The project, which extends through February 29, 2028, will develop advanced algorithms and computational methods to extract structured event knowledge (who, what, when, where) from unstructured text data across diverse domains and languages with minimal human annotation effort. The research addresses a critical limitation in current natural language processing systems by reducing dependence on labor-intensive manual annotation and predefined event schema templates. The project is organized into three technical thrusts, with the initial thrust focused on developing schema-guided event extraction approaches that leverage complex target event schemas. Upon successful completion, the deliverables will enable more efficient intelligent information access systems capable of analyzing emerging topics such as natural disasters, protests, and disease outbreaks. The research outcomes will provide accurate summaries, facilitate participant discovery, and establish temporal relationships between events, thereby delivering enhanced analytical capabilities for end users and information analysts. The research will be performed at UC Davis's Davis, California campus.
