UZH in BioNLP 2013

We describe a biological event detection method implemented for the Genia Event Extraction task of BioNLP 2013. The method relies on syntactic dependency relations provided by a general NLP pipeline, supported by statistics derived from Maximum Entropy models for candidate trigger words, for potential arguments, and for argument frames.
