Named entity recognition is required to improve the retrieval accuracy of patent documents or similar patents in the claims and patent descriptions. In this paper, we proposed an automatic named entity recognition for patents by using a conditional random field that is one of the best methods in machine learning research. Named entity recognition system has been constructed from the training set of tagged corpus with 660,000 words and 70,000 words are used as a test set for evaluation. The experiment shows that the accuracy is 93.6% and the Kappa coefficient is 0.67 between manual tagging and automatic tagging system. This figure is better than the Kappa coefficient 0.6 for manually tagged results and it shows that automatic named entity tagging system can be used as a practical tagging for patent documents in replacement of a manual tagging.

Recognition of named entity such as proper nouns in conversation sentences is the most fundamental and important field of study for efficient conversational information prediction. The most important part of a task-oriented dialogue system is to recognize what attributes an object in a conversation has. The named entity recognition model carries out recognition of the named entity through the preprocessing, word embedding, and prediction steps for the dialogue sentence. This study aims at using user - defined dictionary in preprocessing stage and finding optimal parameters at word embedding stage for efficient dialogue information prediction. In order to test the designed object name recognition model, we selected the field of daily chemical products and constructed the named entity recognition model that can be applied in the task-oriented dialogue system in the related domain.

As the big data industry has recently developed significantly, interest in privacy violations caused by personal information leakage has increased. There have been attempts to automate this through named entity recognition in natural language processing. In this paper, named entity recognition data is constructed semi-automatically by identifying sentences with de-identification information from de-identification information in Korean Wikipedia. This can reduce the cost of learning about information that is not subject to de-identification compared to using general named entity recognition data. In addition, it has the advantage of minimizing additional systems based on rules and statistics to classify de-identification information in the output. The named entity recognition data proposed in this paper is classified into twelve categories. There are included de-identification information, such as medical records and family relationships. In the experiment using the generated dataset, KoELECTRA showed performance of 0.87796 and RoBERTa of 0.88.

Named Entity Recognition is a system that extracts entity names such as Persons(PS), Locations(LC), and Organizations(OG) that can have a unique meaning from a document and determines the categories of extracted entity names. Recently, Bi-LSTM-CRF, which is a combination of CRF using the transition probability between output data from LSTM-based Bi-LSTM model considering forward and backward directions of input data, showed excellent performance in the study of object name recognition using deep-learning, and it has a good performance on the efficient embedding vector creation by character and word unit and the model using CNN and LSTM. In this research, we describe the Bi-LSTM-CNN-CRF model that enhances the features of the Korean named entity recognition system and propose a method for constructing the traditional culture corpus. We also present the results of learning the constructed corpus with the feature augmentation model for the recognition of Korean object names.

The Named Entity Recognition system is a system that recognizes words or phrases with object names such as personal name (PS), place name (LC), and group name (OG) in the document as corresponding object names. Traditional approaches to named entity recognition include statistical-based models that learn models based on hand-crafted features. Recently, it has been proposed to construct the qualities expressing the sentence using models such as deep-learning based Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) and long-short term memory (LSTM) to solve the problem of sequence labeling. In this research, to improve the performance of the Korean named entity recognition system, we used a hand-crafted feature, part-of-speech tagging information, and pre-built lexicon information to augment features for representing sentence. Experimental results show that the proposed method improves the performance of Korean named entity recognition system. The results of this study are presented through github for future collaborative research with researchers studying Korean Natural Language Processing (NLP) and named entity recognition system.

Named Entity Recognition (NER) is always limited by its lower recall resulting from the asymmetric data distribution where the NONE class dominates the entity classes. This paper presents an approach that exploits non-local information to improve the NER recall. Several kinds of non-local features encoding entity token occurrence, entity boundary and entity class are explored under Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) framework. Experiments on SIGHAN 2006 MSRA (CityU) corpus indicate that non-local features can effectively enhance the recall of the state-of-the-art NER systems. Incorporating the non-local features into the NER systems using local features alone, our best system achieves a 23.56% (25.26%) relative error reduction on the recall and 17.10% (11.36%) relative error reduction on the F1 score; the improved F1 score 89.38% (90.09%) is significantly superior to the best NER system with F1 of 86.51% (89.03%) participated in the closed track.

Named entity recognition is to classify elements in text into predefined categories and used for various departments which receives natural language inputs. In this paper, we propose a method which can generate named entity training corpus automatically using knowledge bases. We apply two different methods to generate corpus depending on the knowledge bases. One of the methods attaches named entity labels to text data using Wikipedia. The other method crawls data from web and labels named entities to web text data using Freebase. We conduct two experiments to evaluate corpus quality and our proposed method for generating Named entity recognition corpus automatically. We extract sentences randomly from two corpus which called Wikipedia corpus and Web corpus then label them to validate both automatic labeled corpus. We also show the performance of named entity recognizer trained by corpus generated in our proposed method. The result shows that our proposed method adapts well with new corpus which reflects diverse sentence structures and the newest entities.

Named entities (NEs) are important in many Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications, and discovering NE-related relations in texts may be beneficial for these applications. This paper proposes a method to extract the ISA relation between a "named entity" and its category, and an IS-RELATED-TO relation between the category and its related object. Based on the pattern extraction algorithm "Person Category Extraction" (PCE), we extend it for solving our problem. Our experiments on Wall Street Journal (WSJ) corpus show promising results. We also demonstrate a possible application of these relations by utilizing them for semantic search.

질의 응답 시스템(Question Answering: QA)에서 정답 유형 부류(Answer Type Taxonomy: ATT)란 사용자 질문 분석을 위한 미 부류 체계를 의미하는 것으로, ATT의 크기가 클수록 시스템의 성능은 높아진다. ATT를 확장하기 위해서는, 개체(Named Entity)에 의미 범주를 결정하는 개체 분류기(Named Entity Tagger의 분류 체계가 세분되어야 하는데, 기존의 개체 분류기는 한문서 내에서 그 개체의 분류를 시도하기 때문에, 분류를 위한 문맥 정보의 양이 부족하여, 정확하고 상세한 분류를 기대하기 힘들다. 본 논문에서는 동일 개체에 대한 문맥 정보를 수집하기 위해, 그 개체가 나타나는 다른 문서들을 검색하는 개체 피드백 Named Enti쇼 Feedback)이라는 기법을 사용한다. 개체가 상세히 분류됨에 따라 ATT도 확장될 수 있었으며, 이렇게 확장된 ATT상에서의 정답 추출은 baseline보다 약 7%정도의 성능 향상을 보여, 개체 피드백의 효과를 확인할 수 있었다.

Along with advent of Web 3.0 era and advanced technologies of IoT(Internet of Things), massive amounts of information are generated. Reflecting this trend, this paper developed a semi-automatic construction tool for named entity dictionary based on active learning. Our proposed method chose error candidates to verify among the preliminary results using initial trained model and re-trained the model for correctly labeled data by user. We adopt active learning approach for minimizing human effort utilized metadata features of Wikipedia. Based on experimental results using our tool, we show that 68.6% errors were automatically corrected.
