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: Spearman–Brown prophecy formula | Statement: [Charles Spearman, knownFor, Spearman–Brown prophecy formula]

Target entity: Spearman–Brown prophecy formula
Context triple: [Charles Spearman, knownFor, Spearman–Brown prophecy formula]
  • A. Statistical Methods for Research Workers
    Statistical Methods for Research Workers is a foundational 1925 statistics textbook by Ronald A. Fisher that helped establish modern statistical theory and practice in scientific research.
  • B. Neyman–Pearson theory of hypothesis testing
    The Neyman–Pearson theory of hypothesis testing is a foundational statistical framework that formalizes how to construct and evaluate tests for competing hypotheses using concepts like Type I and Type II errors and power.
  • C. Frisch–Waugh–Lovell theorem
    The Frisch–Waugh–Lovell theorem is a fundamental result in econometrics that shows how the coefficients of a multiple linear regression can be obtained by first partialling out (regressing out) other explanatory variables.
  • D. Gaussian law of error
    The Gaussian law of error is a fundamental statistical principle stating that measurement errors tend to follow a normal (bell-shaped) distribution, forming the basis of much of probability theory and statistical inference.
  • E. Laplace law of error
    The Laplace law of error is a probability distribution characterized by a sharp peak at the mean and heavier tails than the normal distribution, historically used to model the magnitude of observational errors.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
