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: Huygens' principle | Statement: [Christiaan Huygens, knownFor, Huygens' principle]
NED1 Entity disambiguation (via context triple) gpt-5-mini-2025-08-07
Target entity: Huygens' principle
Context triple: [Christiaan Huygens, knownFor, Huygens' principle]
  • A. Huygens–Fresnel principle chosen
    The Huygens–Fresnel principle is a fundamental concept in wave optics that explains how every point on a wavefront acts as a source of secondary wavelets whose interference determines the wave’s subsequent propagation and diffraction.
  • B. Traité de la lumière
    Traité de la lumière is a seminal 1690 scientific treatise that presents Christiaan Huygens’ wave theory of light, including the principle now known as Huygens’ principle.
  • C. Feynman sprinkler problem
    The Feynman sprinkler problem is a famous physics thought experiment that examines how a submerged, water-aspirating sprinkler would move, highlighting subtleties in fluid dynamics and momentum conservation.
  • D. Feynman–Kac formula
    The Feynman–Kac formula is a fundamental result connecting solutions of certain partial differential equations with expectations over stochastic processes, forming a bridge between quantum mechanics, probability theory, and mathematical finance.
  • E. Feynman checkerboard model
    The Feynman checkerboard model is a path-integral-based lattice model introduced by Richard Feynman to illustrate and derive the behavior of relativistic quantum particles, particularly the Dirac equation in one spatial dimension.
  • F. None of above.
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

Provenance (3 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.
