Abstract:
Techniques for entity detection include matching a token from at least a portion of a text string with a matching concept in an ontology. A first concept may be identified as being hierarchically related to the matching concept within the ontology, and a second concept may be identified as being hierarchically related to the first concept within the ontology. The first and second concepts may be included in a set of features of the token. Based at least in part on the set of features of the token, a measure related to a likelihood that the at least a portion of the text string corresponds to a particular entity type may be determined.
