NER on Ancient Greek with minimal annotation [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
This paper presents the results in the adaptation of a new workflow of Named Entity Recognition and classification applied to Ancient Greek. We used a model of data extraction and pattern discovery based on machine learning algorithms which is easily customizable for different languages. This allowed the creation of a dataset of automatically classified place-names and ethnonyms starting from a small manually annotated list. We worked on the assumption that premodern textual sources display a recognized systematicity in their linguistic encoding of space, which provides a test-case for automatic context-based methods. The idea is that we should be able to train the machine to recognize an entity from recurring elements in the context, without providing a large training dataset in advance.
