Named-entity recognition
gpt-5-mini
Instruction
Given a phrase, classify it is english named entity (e.g., persons, organizations, works of art) in Latin script, or not (e.g., literals, dates, URLs, verbose phrases). For disambiguation, the statement where the phrase occurs as object is also given. Please return a JSON object with `phrase` (string, the phrase being analyzed) and `is_ne` (boolean, indicating whether the phrase is a Named Entity).

-
A.
Maxwell–Boltzmann statistics
chosen
Maxwell–Boltzmann statistics is a classical statistical framework in physics that describes the distribution of speeds or energies among distinguishable, non-quantum particles in thermal equilibrium.
-
B.
Boltzmann distribution
The Boltzmann distribution is a fundamental probability distribution in statistical mechanics that describes how particles or states are populated over different energy levels at thermal equilibrium.
-
C.
Boltzmann equation
The Boltzmann equation is a fundamental kinetic theory equation that describes the statistical behavior and time evolution of a dilute gas or particle distribution in phase space due to streaming and collisions.
-
D.
Boltzmann–BGK equation
The Boltzmann–BGK equation is a simplified kinetic model that replaces the complex collision term of the Boltzmann equation with a single relaxation-time approximation to describe gas particle dynamics.
-
E.
Sackur–Tetrode equation
The Sackur–Tetrode equation is a fundamental formula in statistical mechanics that gives the absolute entropy of an ideal monatomic gas in terms of its volume, temperature, and particle number.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
Provenance (3 batches)
The batch behind each pipeline step, in order, with when it ran. Timestamps are batch-level — stages were processed in waves, so the object chain (NER → NED1 → NEDg → NED2) reads in order, but predicate / elicitation batches can sit in a different wave.
