Named entity recognition: A deeper dive into methods for finding things mentioned in papers

[@kamigo]

Hey I'm doing a master thesis on AI for interactions in natural language with databases, and just wanted to thank you because you helped me understand the concept of NER :)

[@larsjuhljensen]

Happy to hear it was helpful!

Thanks!

You're welcome!

@Lars- this was insightful and crisp even for non technical audience to understand. Can you please share links/ material how output of NER models can be used to search and rank matching records/ papers from a database

[@larsjuhljensen]

Thanks, that's wonderful to hear! I don't have any good examples to point to on how NER us used for ranking, but the use of NER for information retrieval (i.e. finding papers) is illustrated in our hands-on exercises: jensenlab.org/training/textmining/
