Finding patterns and matching strategies are well-known NLP procedures to extract information from text.
Spark NLP library has two annotators that can use these techniques to extract relevant information or recognize entities of interest in large-scale environments when dealing with lots of documents from medical records, web pages, or data gathered from social media.
In this talk, we will see how to retrieve the information we are looking for by using the following annotators:
- Entity Ruler, an annotator available in open-source Spark NLP.
- Contextual Parser, an annotator available only in Spark NLP for Healthcare.
- In addition, we will enumerate use cases where we can apply these annotators.
After this webinar, you will know when to use a rule approach to extract information from your data and the best way to set the available parameters in these annotators.

Every organization in the US is at risk from cyber threats from Russia, warned the US Department of Homeland Security on Tuesday, February 22. This warning comes in response to the escalation of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which includes boots-on-the-ground tactics as well as cyber-attacks.
Russian cyber operations have targeted Ukraine with destabilization efforts for years, by way of infrastructure attacks, influence operations, website defacement, and attacks on Ukrainian banks and military networks.
US organizations find themselves potential targets for cyber attacks as Russia responds to sanctions the US imposed on Russia for violating international law. According to the DHS, “Russia maintains a range of offensive cyber tools that it could employ against US networks—from low-level denials-of-service to destructive attacks targeting critical infrastructure.”
Given all the fast-moving pieces involved, what exactly is the threat from Russia?
In this urgent webcast, top cybersecurity experts Tim Conway, Kevin Holvoet, Rob Lee, and Jake Williams will give an overview of current Russian Threat Actor capabilities, discuss critical infrastructure attacks on Ukraine, and possible escalation spillover into the EU and/or the US. Join us to get the answers to the key questions surrounding this conflict.
Register now and join us to get answers to key questions surrounding this conflict and its implications on your cybersecurity strategy.
If you are unable to attend the webcast live, please register anyway and you will be able to view the recording on demand once it’s available. While the original broadcast is in the English language, the on-demand recording will be translated to Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish.
