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: Kelvin–Helmholtz instability | Statement: [Stratified Flows, includesConcept, Kelvin–Helmholtz instability]

Target entity: Kelvin–Helmholtz instability
Context triple: [Stratified Flows, includesConcept, Kelvin–Helmholtz instability]
  • A. Rayleigh–Taylor instability
    Rayleigh–Taylor instability is a fluid dynamics phenomenon in which the interface between two fluids of different densities becomes unstable when the lighter fluid pushes against the heavier one, leading to complex mixing patterns.
  • B. Jeans instability
    Jeans instability is a gravitational phenomenon in astrophysics where regions within a gas cloud become unstable and collapse under their own gravity, leading to the formation of structures like stars and galaxies.
  • C. Kruskal–Shafranov instability criterion
    The Kruskal–Shafranov instability criterion is a fundamental condition in plasma physics that predicts when a magnetically confined plasma column becomes unstable to kink-like distortions.
  • D. Langmuir circulation
    Langmuir circulation is a wind-driven pattern of shallow, counter-rotating vortices in the upper ocean that organizes floating material into parallel streaks on the water surface.
  • E. Saffman–Taylor instability
    The Saffman–Taylor instability is a fluid dynamics phenomenon in which a less viscous fluid penetrating a more viscous one in a confined geometry leads to finger-like interfacial patterns, often called viscous fingering.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
