The present disclosure provides an information extraction method and apparatus, an electronic device and a readable storage medium, and relates to the field of natural language processing technologies. The information extraction method includes: acquiring a to-be-extracted text; acquiring a sample set, the sample set including a plurality of sample texts and labels of sample characters in the plurality of sample texts; determining a prediction label of each character in the to-be-extracted text according to a semantic feature vector of each character in the to-be-extracted text and a semantic feature vector of each sample character in the sample set; and extracting, according to the prediction label of each character, a character meeting a preset requirement from the to-be-extracted text as an extraction result of the to-be-extracted text. The present disclosure can simplify steps of information extraction, reduce costs of information extraction and improve flexibility and accuracy of information extraction.
