The SSL classifier performs better than distant learning in detecting NEs minimal supervision approaches using various classifier combination methods leads to better results for Named entity recognition through classifier combination. ./cache/work_2sn25vxvsrbzrjcp6ps7nehcte.pdf ./txt/work_2sn25vxvsrbzrjcp6ps7nehcte.txt
