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

-
A.
Gale–Shapley algorithm
The Gale–Shapley algorithm is a foundational procedure in mathematics and computer science that computes stable matchings between two equally sized sets, such as students and schools or men and women in the stable marriage problem.
-
B.
Banker's algorithm
Banker's algorithm is a classic deadlock-avoidance algorithm in operating systems that safely allocates resources to processes by simulating and verifying that the system will remain in a safe state.
-
C.
Gale’s top trading cycles algorithm
Gale’s top trading cycles algorithm is a mechanism in matching theory that produces efficient and strategy-proof allocations of indivisible goods, such as in housing markets, by iteratively forming and executing trading cycles among participants.
-
D.
Shapley–Gale theorem
The Shapley–Gale theorem is a foundational result in cooperative game theory that characterizes stable outcomes in assignment and matching problems, underpinning much of modern market design and matching theory.
-
E.
Sperner's lemma
Sperner's lemma is a fundamental result in combinatorial topology that guarantees the existence of a fully labeled simplex in certain labeled triangulations, and is widely used to prove fixed-point and equilibrium theorems.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
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]"

Provenance (5 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.
