The NLP group at Washington is one of the best in the world (imo likely top 5), and did most of the seminal work on open information extraction, the technologies backing this service.
I'm surprised they chose this name. The commercial service, AlchemyAPI, that was bought by IBM is likely to be much less accurate. I can't say for sure, though --- their terms of service prohibit evaluation. All I know is, that's not a good sign...
- t45 11y agoAlchemy was launched much ealier than AlchemyAPI.
- syllogism 11y agoVery interesting!! I had no idea.
- nl 11y agoWashington's Open Information Extraction project - Ollie[1] - is really, really good. For example I've found it much more effective that the OpenIE tool in Stanford CoreNLP. I think Alchemy is pretty old though? Most people seem to use Tuffy for MLN now. [1] https://github.com/knowitall/ollie https://github.com/knowitall/ollie
