Exploiting diverse knowledge sources via maximum entropy in named entity recognition, by A. Borthwick, J. Sterling, E. Agichtein, R. Grishman. In Proceedings of the sixth workshop on very large corpora, 1998.

This is review for Borthwick_1998_exploiting_diverse_knowledge_sources_via_maximum_entropy_in_named_entity_recognition by user:ksuravar.

Summary: The paper describes applying Maximum entropy theory to Named Entity recognition using various sources of information. The paper describes the problem of recognizing and categorizing the NE.

I liked the conclusion where they said MENE can be used as the final step to increase the results for any hand coded system lying on the top of it.
