NER Named-entity recognition gpt-5-mini
Instruction
Given a phrase, classify it is english named entity (e.g., persons, organizations, works of art) in Latin script, or not (e.g., literals, dates, URLs, verbose phrases). For disambiguation, the statement where the phrase occurs as object is also given. Please return a JSON object with `phrase` (string, the phrase being analyzed) and `is_ne` (boolean, indicating whether the phrase is a Named Entity).
Input
Phrase: Feedback Vertex Set problem | Statement: [Reducibility Among Combinatorial Problems, establishesNPCompletenessOf, Feedback Vertex Set problem]
NED1 Entity disambiguation (via context triple) gpt-5-mini-2025-08-07
Target entity: Feedback Vertex Set problem
Context triple: [Reducibility Among Combinatorial Problems, establishesNPCompletenessOf, Feedback Vertex Set problem]
  • A. Clique problem
    The Clique problem is a classic NP-complete decision problem in graph theory that asks whether a graph contains a fully connected subgraph (clique) of at least a given size.
  • B. Steiner tree problem
    The Steiner tree problem is a classic optimization problem in combinatorial mathematics and computer science that seeks the shortest network of line segments connecting a given set of points, potentially adding extra intermediate points to minimize total length.
  • C. Papadimitriou–Yannakakis theorem
    The Papadimitriou–Yannakakis theorem is a fundamental result in computational complexity theory that characterizes the complexity of certain optimization and approximation problems, particularly in relation to classes like NP and the theory of approximation algorithms.
  • D. Combinatorial Optimization: Algorithms and Complexity
    Combinatorial Optimization: Algorithms and Complexity is a foundational textbook that systematically develops the theory and algorithms of combinatorial optimization, emphasizing computational complexity and algorithmic efficiency.
  • E. Boolean satisfiability problem
    The Boolean satisfiability problem (SAT) is the canonical NP-complete decision problem of determining whether there exists an assignment of truth values to variables that makes a given Boolean formula evaluate to true.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

Provenance (5 batches)

The batch behind each pipeline step, in order, with when it ran. Timestamps are batch-level — stages were processed in waves, so the object chain (NER → NED1 → NEDg → NED2) reads in order, but predicate / elicitation batches can sit in a different wave.
