Named Entity Recognisers
If you have some software which you would like us to add to this list, or if you would like us to change or remove an entry, please contact us.
- ABNER (A Biological Named Entity Recognizer)
- A NER tool with GUI for molecular biology text analysis. It implements statistical machine learning algorithm of linear-chain conditional random fields (CRFs).
- Annie
- A tool for generating a named entity-tagged corpus from plain text files (a GATE component).
- ESpotter
- ESpotter is a browser plug-in which improves NER on the Web by adapting lexicons and patterns to domains on the Web and user preferences.
- LingPipe
- A trainable annotator (Java) with built-in MEDLINE tools for gene and protein identification.
- NLProt
- "NLProt is a tool for finding protein-names in natural-language text. It is based on Support Vector Machines, which are trained on contextual-features of named entities in scientific language."
- POSBioTm/NER
- A web-based and trainable biomedical named entity recognition system. Modules are provided online which have been trained on a variety of corpera.
- Yapex
- A protein name tagger developed in the project "Proteinhalt i text" (Protein Concentration in Text). The tagger uses information from lexical analysis, syntactic analysis and some knowledge bases. The syntactic analysis is based on the output from the English Functional Dependency Grammar parser from Conexor Oy
- YooName
- A generic Named Entity Recognition software based on semi-supervised learning. It identifies nine named entity categories that are split into 100 sub-categories.
