Abstract

This paper focuses on named entity recognition corresponding to people, organizations, locations, etc. in Chinese scientific documents. Two key benefits are shown by performing NER: (i) improved quality of semantic retrieval, and (ii) improvement in subsequent machine translation. Experiments using the Semantex platform for information extraction illustrate and quantify the two benefits outlined.
