Abstract

Extracting named entity especially organization name from Chinese management case texts is a challenging task due to the lack of labeled data and difficulty in identifying diversified forms of entity names. In this paper, a semi-supervised learning method based on bidirectional long short-term memory and conditional random field (BI-LSTM-CRF) model was proposed. This method has a bootstrapped framework which automatically learns complex text features from a small number of seed sets with the BI-LSTM-CRF model and then updates the seed sets after evaluating the recognition results according to the rule base. It stops iterating when the precision of the model comes to convergence. The experimental results show that the accuracy of the proposed method reaches 89.2%, which outperforms other semi-supervised learning models.
