Abstract: The amount of electronic
data being produced and communicated online is rapidly increasing. Most of
these electronic documents contain lot of important & interesting
information in unstructured format. Various approaches are used in the
literature to automate the process of event extraction so as to conserve time
and effort. This paper proposes an algorithm to automate the task of
information extraction. We demonstrate that machine learning can be used for
extracting event from the unstructured text such as dates places and subject of
interest.
