A Comparison of Named Entity Patterns from a User Analysis and a System Analysis

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 4956))

Abstract

This paper investigates the detection of named entity (NE) patterns by comparing the results of NE patterns resulting from a user analysis and a system analysis. Findings revealed that there are difference in NE patterns detected by system and user, something that may affect the performance of a TDT system based on NE detection.
