Accelerated information extraction through facilitated rule development

A computing system, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• one or more programmable processors in communication with the memory, and configured to:
• process a first document using an anchor rule, wherein the anchor rule identifies tokens for a domain;
• identify, using the anchor rule, a first set of phrases from the first document that match the tokens;
• receive a first selection from a first subset of the first set of phrases;
• determine, based on the first selection, a word list, wherein the word list is a list of words ranked by a rate of appearance in the first document;
• and
• process, based on the word list, a second document to extract one or more points of information from the second document.

Non-transitory computer-readable media, comprising instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to:

• process a first document using an anchor rule, wherein the anchor rule identifies tokens for a domain;
• identify, using the anchor rule, a first set of phrases from the first document that match the tokens;
• receive a first selection from a first subset of the first set of phrases;
• determine, based on the first selection, a word list, wherein the word list is a list of words ranked by a rate of appearance in the first document;
• and
• process, based on the word list, a second document to extract one or more points of information from the second document.
