Nested named entity recognition is a subtask of information extraction that seeks to locate and classify nested named entities (i.e., hierarchically structured entities) mentioned in unstructured text (Source: Adapted from Wikipedia).

Merge and Label: A novel neural network architecture for nested NER

fishjh2/merge_label ACL 2019

Named entity recognition (NER) is one of the best studied tasks in natural language processing.

Neural Architectures for Nested NER through Linearization

ufal/acl2019_nested_ner ACL 2019

We propose two neural network architectures for nested named entity recognition (NER), a setting in which named entities may overlap and also be labeled with more than one label.

A Boundary-aware Neural Model for Nested Named Entity Recognition

thecharm/boundary-aware-nested-ner IJCNLP 2019

We propose a boundary-aware neural model for nested NER which leverages entity boundaries to predict entity categorical labels.

Bipartite Flat-Graph Network for Nested Named Entity Recognition

cslydia/BiFlaG ACL 2020

In this paper, we propose a novel bipartite flat-graph network (BiFlaG) for nested named entity recognition (NER), which contains two subgraph modules: a flat NER module for outermost entities and a graph module for all the entities located in inner layers.

Named Entity Recognition as Dependency Parsing

juntaoy/biaffine-ner ACL 2020

Named Entity Recognition (NER) is a fundamental task in Natural Language Processing, concerned with identifying spans of text expressing references to entities.

A Boundary Regression Model for Nested Named Entity Recognition

wuyuefei3/BR 29 Nov 2020

Then, a regression operation is introduced to regress boundaries of NEs in a sentence.

Nested Named Entity Recognition with Partially-Observed TreeCRFs

FranxYao/Partially-Observed-TreeCRFs 15 Dec 2020

With the TreeCRF we achieve a uniform way to jointly model the observed and the latent nodes.

Structured Prediction as Translation between Augmented Natural Languages

amazon-research/tanl ICLR 2021

We propose a new framework, Translation between Augmented Natural Languages (TANL), to solve many structured prediction language tasks including joint entity and relation extraction, nested named entity recognition, relation classification, semantic role labeling, event extraction, coreference resolution, and dialogue state tracking.
