NER
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).
Input

-
A.
Carathéodory metric
The Carathéodory metric is an intrinsic distance function in complex analysis that measures how far apart points are in a domain based on holomorphic mappings into the unit disk.
-
B.
Carathéodory’s theorem in convex geometry
Carathéodory’s theorem in convex geometry is a fundamental result stating that any point in the convex hull of a set in ℝⁿ can be expressed as a convex combination of at most n+1 points from that set.
-
C.
Gaussian curvature
Gaussian curvature is a fundamental concept in differential geometry that measures how a surface bends at a point by combining its principal curvatures into a single intrinsic quantity.
-
D.
Weingarten map
The Weingarten map is a differential geometric operator on a surface that encodes how the surface’s normal vector field changes, thereby describing the surface’s extrinsic curvature.
-
E.
Ricci flow
Ricci flow is a geometric evolution equation that smoothly deforms the metric of a Riemannian manifold in a way analogous to heat diffusion, playing a central role in Grigori Perelman's proof of the Poincaré conjecture.
- F. None of above. chosen
