[comp.ai] Reuters news wire natural language understander reference etc.?

hartman@cs.utexas.edu (10/10/90)

I'm seeking information about natural language unterstanding systems
that read news stories, bboards etc.  If you know any references,
please email to me.

Particularly, I've heard of a system that reads the Reuters news wire,
but I can't recall the reference.  Perhaps it was presented at AAAI this
summer, but I can't find anything in the proceedings. Who knows the
author, references?

I do know about old Yale FRUMP system of De Jong that read the UPI
wire, but don't know of a citation index that would show who cites it.

I'll post a summary if there are responses and interest.

Thanks!

John Hartman
