Mention Recognition Task

A Mention Recognition Task is a recognition task that requires the detection of a mention and its classification into one or more classes.

• Context:
  • It can be solved by a Mention Recognition Algorithm.
  • It can be supported by a Mention Detection Task, a Mention Classification Task and a Coreference Resolution Task.
  • It can be supported by a Text Chunking Task.
  • It can range from being Concept Mention Recognition (such as NER) to being Relation Mention Recognition (e.g. Semantic Role Labeling).
  • ...
• Example(s):
  • a Named Entity Recognition Task.
  • a Keyword Query Concept Mention Recognition Task.
  • …
• Counter-Example(s):
  • any Reference Resolution Task, such as:
    • a Concept Mention Grounding Task (where the classification is to a concept instance, not a concept class)
    • a Relation Mention Grounding Task.
• See: Image Recognition Task.
