CODE: You can download the Basilisk source code at http://www.cs.utah.edu/~riloff/code/BASILISKJava-v2.0.zip. The pattern data needs to be generated separately. The AutoSlog code to generate patterns is available upon request, but beware that it is C++ code that requires a unix-based platform and we don't maintain it anymore. However Basilisk can be applied to any pattern data, including N-grams and dependency relations. |
