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: Maxwell demon | Statement: [Maxwell's demon thought experiment, hasAlternativeName, Maxwell demon]
NED1 Entity disambiguation (via context triple) gpt-5-mini-2025-08-07
Target entity: Maxwell demon
Context triple: [Maxwell's demon thought experiment, hasAlternativeName, Maxwell demon]
  • A. Maxwell's demon thought experiment chosen
    Maxwell's demon thought experiment is a famous conceptual scenario in thermodynamics that imagines an intelligent being seemingly violating the second law by sorting fast and slow gas molecules without expending energy.
  • B. Dyson series
    The Dyson series is a perturbative expansion in quantum field theory that expresses time-ordered exponentials and scattering amplitudes as an infinite series of integrals, each term corresponding to a Feynman diagram.
  • C. Sackur–Tetrode equation
    The Sackur–Tetrode equation is a fundamental formula in statistical mechanics that gives the absolute entropy of an ideal monatomic gas in terms of its volume, temperature, and particle number.
  • D. Landauer's principle
    Landauer's principle is a foundational concept in thermodynamics and information theory stating that erasing one bit of information in a computational process necessarily dissipates a minimum amount of heat, linking information processing to physical entropy.
  • E. H-theorem
    The H-theorem is Boltzmann’s foundational result in statistical mechanics that explains the irreversible increase of entropy in a gas from time-reversible microscopic dynamics, providing a key link between mechanics and the second law of thermodynamics.
  • 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.
