SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECOGNIZING DOMAIN SPECIFIC NAMED ENTITIES USING DOMAIN SPECIFIC WORD EMBEDDINGS

Abstract:

Systems and methods for recognizing domain specific named entities are disclosed. An example method may be performed by one or more processors of a text incorporation system and include extracting a number of terms from a text under consideration, identifying, among the number of terms, a set of unmatched terms that do not match any of a plurality of known terms, passing each respective unmatched term to a vectorization module, embedding a vectorized version of each respective unmatched term in a vector space, comparing each vectorized version to known term vectors, passing, to a machine learning model, candidate terms corresponding to known term vectors closest to the vectorized versions, identifying, using the machine learning model, a best candidate term for each respective unmatched term, mapping the best candidate terms to unmatched terms in the text under consideration, and incorporating the text under consideration into the system based on the mappings.
