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. LIGO Scientific Collaboration
    The LIGO Scientific Collaboration is an international group of scientists and institutions that built and operate the LIGO detectors and made the first direct detection of gravitational waves, confirming a key prediction of Einstein’s general relativity.
  • B. Vera C. Rubin Observatory
    The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is a next-generation astronomical facility in Chile designed to conduct the Legacy Survey of Space and Time, producing an unprecedented, deep, wide, and fast imaging survey of the night sky.
  • C. IceCube Neutrino Observatory
    The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a massive, cubic-kilometer-scale neutrino detector embedded deep in Antarctic ice, designed to observe high-energy neutrinos from cosmic sources.
  • D. Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory
    The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory is a NASA space telescope dedicated primarily to detecting and studying gamma-ray bursts and other high-energy astrophysical phenomena.
  • E. Thirty Meter Telescope
    The Thirty Meter Telescope is a planned next-generation ground-based optical and infrared observatory with a 30-meter primary mirror, designed to provide extremely high-resolution views of the universe from a mountaintop site.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
