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: Gamma function | Statement: [generalized binomial theorem, relatedConcept, Gamma function]
NED1 Entity disambiguation (via context triple) gpt-5-mini-2025-08-07
Target entity: Gamma function
Context triple: [generalized binomial theorem, relatedConcept, Gamma function]
  • A. Riemann zeta function
    The Riemann zeta function is a complex-valued function central to analytic number theory, whose properties—especially the distribution of its zeros—are deeply connected to the distribution of prime numbers.
  • B. Gauss’s constant
    Gauss’s constant is a mathematical constant arising in number theory and complex analysis, particularly in connection with the lemniscate and elliptic functions.
  • C. Gaussian integral
    The Gaussian integral is a fundamental result in mathematics that evaluates the integral of the exponential of a negative quadratic function over the entire real line, yielding a value proportional to the square root of π and underpinning the normal distribution in probability theory.
  • D. Riemann–Siegel formula
    The Riemann–Siegel formula is an asymptotic expression that efficiently approximates the Riemann zeta function on the critical line, playing a key role in the numerical study of its zeros.
  • E. Euler–Maclaurin summation formula
    The Euler–Maclaurin summation formula is a fundamental result in analysis that connects sums and integrals, providing powerful asymptotic expansions and error estimates for approximating series by integrals.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
