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

Ising models
Ising models are mathematical models in statistical mechanics that describe systems of interacting binary variables (spins) on a lattice, widely used to study phase transitions, magnetism, and as a foundation for various probabilistic and machine learning models.
-

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.

NEDg
Description generation
gpt-5.1
Instruction
Generate a one-sentence description of the target entity. You are given a context triple in the form (subject, predicate, object), where the object is the target entity. # Instructions Use the triple to infer relevant information about the entity. Describe the entity based on what is most defining, well-known. Avoid repeating the information from the triple, unless really essential. # Response Format Return only the sentence: "Description: [one-sentence description of the target entity]"
