Every LLM step that produced this triple, in pipeline order — named-entity classification, the disambiguation choices (the exact options shown, with the pick highlighted), and the generated description. The batch + timestamp of each is in the Provenance table below.

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
Phrase: Cauchy determinant | Statement: [Augustin-Louis Cauchy, knownFor, Cauchy determinant]

Target entity: Cauchy determinant
Context triple: [Augustin-Louis Cauchy, knownFor, Cauchy determinant]
  • A. Cauchy-à-la-Tour
    Cauchy-à-la-Tour is a small commune in the Pas-de-Calais department of northern France.
  • B. Vandermonde's identity
    Vandermonde's identity is a fundamental combinatorial formula that expresses a binomial coefficient with a sum index as a sum of products of binomial coefficients, often visualized via counting arguments or generating functions.
  • C. Jacobi polynomials
    Jacobi polynomials are a family of classical orthogonal polynomials depending on two parameters, widely used in approximation theory, numerical analysis, and solutions of differential equations.
  • D. Jacobi triple product
    The Jacobi triple product is a fundamental identity in number theory and complex analysis that expresses an infinite product as an infinite sum, playing a key role in the theory of theta functions and q-series.
  • E. Cauchy–Kovalevskaya theorem
    The Cauchy–Kovalevskaya theorem is a fundamental result in partial differential equations that guarantees the existence and uniqueness of analytic solutions to certain initial value problems under appropriate analyticity conditions.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
