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: Capitanian (Guadalupian) mass extinction | Statement: [Permian–Triassic mass extinction, precededBy, Capitanian (Guadalupian) mass extinction]
NED1 Entity disambiguation (via context triple) gpt-5-mini-2025-08-07
Target entity: Capitanian (Guadalupian) mass extinction
Context triple: [Permian–Triassic mass extinction, precededBy, Capitanian (Guadalupian) mass extinction]
  • A. Permian–Triassic mass extinction
    The Permian–Triassic mass extinction was the most severe biodiversity crisis in Earth's history, wiping out the majority of marine and terrestrial species around 252 million years ago and marking the boundary between the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras.
  • B. Late Devonian extinction
    The Late Devonian extinction was a prolonged series of biodiversity crises around 375–359 million years ago that devastated marine life, especially reef ecosystems and armored fishes, and ranks among the largest mass extinctions in Earth’s history.
  • C. Triassic–Jurassic extinction event
    The Triassic–Jurassic extinction event was a major mass extinction around 201 million years ago that wiped out many marine and terrestrial species, paving the way for dinosaurs to become the dominant land animals in the Jurassic Period.
  • D. Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary
    The Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary marks the geological transition 66 million years ago associated with a mass extinction event that wiped out non-avian dinosaurs and many other species, likely triggered by a large asteroid impact.
  • E. Carboniferous rainforest collapse
    The Carboniferous rainforest collapse was a mass extinction and fragmentation event of vast tropical coal-forest ecosystems around 305 million years ago, profoundly reshaping terrestrial biodiversity and climate in the late Paleozoic.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
