Tag: Entity Extraction
Entity extraction is the process of identifying words in a given text that refer to people, places, products, organizations, etc. by using different extraction methods such as statistical or deep neural network processors, exact match processors, and pattern matching processors. When used together with entity resolution, the extracted words can be mapped to real life entities.

How to Write Annotation Guidelines for Entity Extraction
Writing annotation guidelines for entity extraction for adverse media screening in financial compliance As much as we love to think our machine learning algorithms are the most important part of training up a model, they need human-annotated data to get started, which also — very importantly — are the benchmark for evaluating a model’s accuracy. […]
Building a More Useful Hebrew Transliteration Scheme
When the Rosette® Name Translator team set out to build a Hebrew-to-Latin character translator, one of the first considerations was: Which Hebrew transliteration standard should we use?

Faster Annotation with Rosette Adaptation Studio
What are the top three barriers to better machine learning models? Annotating data, annotating data, and annotating data. Okay, so it’s not that simple, but producing quality training data to produce accurate models takes up the lion’s share of human labor and time in the entire process. This includes collecting and cleaning data, making sure […]
What’s the Difference Between Entity Extraction (NER) and Entity Resolution?
Entity extraction, or named entity recognition (NER), is finding mentions of key “things” (aka “entities”) such as people, places, organizations, dates, and time within text. Entity mentions are the words in text that refer to entities, such as “Bill Clinton,” “White House,” and “U.S.” Entity resolution (aka, entity linking) takes it one step further and […]
