1. A computer implemented method for processing natural language information in conjunction with a natural language processing (NLP) system, comprising: providing a user interface in communication with a semantic network editing tool disposed to facilitate processing of information in the NLP system from a collection of documents stored in a document repository so as to provide a set of processed information wherein the set of processed information includes entities and relationships between the entities, the entities and relationships labeled with a first ontology of the NLP system, the first ontology including entity types and relation types assigned to the processed entities and relationships in the set of processed information; mapping, using the semantic network editing tool, the entity types and relation types of the first ontology of the NLP system to element types and relation types, respectively, of a second ontology of a semantic network, the first ontology being different from the second ontology; and responsive to a user input provided at the user interface, extracting portions of the set of processed_information for use in the semantic network, wherein the extracting comprises transforming the portions of the set of processed information from the entity types and relation types of the first ontology of the NLP system into the element types and relation types, respectively, of the second ontology of the semantic network thereby enabling the transformed portions of the set of processed information to be displayed as triplets by the user interface.
