Abstract: This thesis describes a novel statistical named-entity (i.e. \proper name") recognition system known as \MENE" (Maximum Entropy Named Entity). Named entity (N.E.) recognition is a form of information extraction in which we seek to classify every word in a document as being a person-name, organization, location, date, time, monetary value, percentage, or \none of the above". The task has particular signi cance for Internet search engines, machine translation, the automatic indexing of... (Update)
