In this paper, we attempted to extract binary relations between terminologies using composite kernels consisting of convolution parse tree kernels and WordNet verb synset vector kernels which explain the semantic relationships between two entities in a sentence. In order to evaluate the performance of our system, we used three domain specific test collections. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our system in all the targeted collection. Especially, the increase in the effectiveness on KREC 2008, 8% in F1, shows that the core contexts around the entities play an important role in boosting the entire performance of relation extraction.
