Catherine Blake has done some nice research on claim identification from scientific articles.<br>Her paper is linked from: <a href="http://people.lis.illinois.edu/~clblake/research.htm">http://people.lis.illinois.edu/~clblake/research.htm</a><br>
<br>If there is open-source software available for claim identification, I would also be interested in trying it out.<br>(However, my guess is that it has to be tweaked a lot in order to work for your corpus.)<br><br>HTH,<br>

I am looking for software that can take a document and identify portions of the text where a claim is being made. In addition, it would be useful if the software can mark pieces of the text where evidence for the claim is discussed. Does such technology exist or is it beyond the current state of the art?<br>
<br>
Any ideas are appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
