Abstract:
Identity search/bulk match is an important capability for law enforcement agencies. In order to search and bulk match the identities mentioned in text documents, the entities like names, date of birth, address, phone numbers, etc. must be extracted out from the texts and stored in a structured format for Identity Resolution tools. In this presentation, we will briefly introduce our entity extraction framework, evaluation process and present the evaluation results.
