Well, from my point of view, part of the problem is that, while it’s easy (or at least not impossible) to detect “Pride and Prejudice” as a named entity, detecting “The most famous book by Jane Austen” (and not just “Jane Austen”) is a harder task, even when it refers to the same object. Actually, that same object could be also referred as “The English novel that was turned into a film starring Keira Knightley” or even “My mom’s favorite book”.

This last two don’t have the the typical named entity structure, but despite being less orthodox-looking, they still refer to the same object, and therefore should be considered as named entity and detected as such by a perfect named entity recognizer.

We still have a long way to go… (we happen to be working at the same field, but in Spanish)

Greetings from Spain and congratulations on your blog! :)

I would like to try out Yooname for my research study, may I know how can I access the demo ? Thanks.

Regards,
Andy.

I wanted to see if you felt that YooName could be a tool that could be placed on a private network (not connected to the Internet) and used to extract entities and thier attributes and relationships from internally generated documents?

Thank You,
