Adaptation of a named entity recognition system for the ESTER 2 evaluation campaign
Caroline E. Brun, Maud Ehrmann · 2009
In this paper, we report our participation to the ESTER 2 (Evaluation des Systemes de Transcription Enrichie d'Emissions Radiophoniques) evaluation campaign, on the Named Entity Recognition for French track. After describing the ESTER 2 goals and guidelines, we present our deep robust parser. Then we show how we adapt the existing French NER module of this parser to the ESTER 2 task. The results we obtain both on manual and automatic transcriptions are presented and discussed.
