New grammar comparison method boosts person name extraction accuracy

Researchers have developed a new method for Named Entity Recognition (NER) specifically for identifying person names. This technique involves comparing concordances from different local grammars to highlight differences, which aids in selecting the most effective grammar. In a case study on Portuguese texts, this approach improved the F-Measure for person name extraction by 6 points, reaching 76.86 and surpassing the previous state-of-the-art. AI

    Concordance Comparison as a Means of Assembling Local Grammars

    Named Entity Recognition for person names is an important but non-trivial task in information extraction. This article uses a tool that compares the concordances obtained from two local grammars (LG) and highlights the differences. We used the results as an aid to select the best…
