"""
Code for extracting relational triples from the ieer and conll2002 corpora.

Relations are stored internally as dictionaries ('reldicts').

The two serialization outputs are "rtuple" and "clause".

- An rtuple is a tuple of the form ``(subj, filler, obj)``,
  where ``subj`` and ``obj`` are pairs of Named Entity mentions, and ``filler`` is the string of words
  occurring between ``sub`` and ``obj`` (with no intervening NEs). Strings are printed via ``repr()`` to
  circumvent locale variations in rendering utf-8 encoded strings.
- A clause is an atom of the form ``relsym(subjsym, objsym)``,
  where the relation, subject and object have been canonicalized to single strings.
