5. A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium embodying computer program code, the computer program code comprising computer executable instructions configured for: receiving a text containing a plurality of statements, the text received by a system configured to parse text input; processing the text to parse the plurality of statements into segmented statements; processing the segmented statements to identify individual segmented statements that are verifiable, the verifiable statement being a subset of factual utterances that can be checked and verified or falsified via an authoritative source, each individual segmented statement that is verifiable being identified as a verifiable statement, the verifiable statement comprising an objective claim that is amenable to external verification, the identification performed by the system; processing the segmented statements to extract features associated with the statements via a feature extraction, the feature extraction simplifying an amount of resources required to accurately describe a large set of data, the feature extraction performed by the system, the features being extracted via the feature extraction comprising semantic features, the semantic features being represented in a notation form to express an existence or non-existence of pre-established semantic properties, the feature extraction being performed using a plurality of named entities, each of the plurality of named entities referring to a place holder for a particular feature or piece of information, the feature extraction receiving information regarding language knowledge, the information regarding language knowledge including information regarding magnitude, information regarding velocity and information regarding quantified items, the information regarding language knowledge being used when performing the feature extraction to classify the segmented statements as verifiable or not verifiable; receiving a training text comprising annotated verifiable statements, the annotated verifiable statements being verified by a statement verification service; and processing the extracted features and the annotated verifiable statements to generate a verifiable statement classification model, the generation performed by the system, the verifiable statement classification model enabling automation of identification and classification of statements that contain objective claims that are amenable to external verification; and, wherein named entity phrases are used to construct grammars, regular expressions and the verifiable statement classification model, each named entity phrase being associated with a list of possible phrases.
