Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing entity relation extraction across sentences in a document using distant supervision. In some examples, a computing device can receive an input, such as a document comprising a plurality of sentences. The computing device can identify syntactic and/or semantic links between words in a sentence and/or between words in different sentences, and extract relationships between entities throughout the document. Techniques and technologies described herein populate a knowledge base (e.g., a table, chart, database etc.) of entity relations based on the extracted relationships. An output of the populated knowledge base can be used by a classifier to identify additional relationships between entities in various documents. Example techniques described herein can apply machine learning to train the classifier to predict relations between entities. The classifier can be trained using known entity relations, syntactic links and/or semantic links.
