Analyzing the Complexity of a Domain with Respect to an Information Extraction Task

In this paper we describe a method of classifying facts (information) into categories or levels; where each level signi es a di erent degree of syntactic complexity related to a fact. Based on this classi cation mechanism, we also propose a method of evaluating a domain by assigning to it a \domain number" based on the levels of a set of standard facts present in the articles of that domain.
