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: Lyot coronagraphs | Statement: [NIRCam, hasCoronagraph, Lyot coronagraphs]

Context triple: [NIRCam, hasCoronagraph, Lyot coronagraphs]
  • A. MagAO
    MagAO is an adaptive optics system on the Magellan Telescopes that corrects atmospheric distortion to enable high-resolution astronomical imaging.
  • B. Dall–Kirkham telescope design
    The Dall–Kirkham telescope design is a type of reflecting telescope that uses an elliptical primary mirror and a spherical secondary mirror to provide good on-axis image quality with relatively simple, easy-to-manufacture optics.
  • C. Maksutov–Cassegrain telescope design
    The Maksutov–Cassegrain telescope design is a compact catadioptric optical system that uses a spherical primary mirror and a meniscus corrector lens to provide long focal lengths with well-corrected, high-contrast images in a relatively short tube.
  • D. GSAOI (Gemini South Adaptive Optics Imager)
    GSAOI (Gemini South Adaptive Optics Imager) is a high-resolution near-infrared camera designed to work with adaptive optics on the Gemini South telescope, enabling extremely sharp imaging by correcting for atmospheric distortion.
  • E. Corrective Optics Space Telescope Axial Replacement (COSTAR)
    Corrective Optics Space Telescope Axial Replacement (COSTAR) was a set of corrective mirrors installed on the Hubble Space Telescope to compensate for its flawed primary mirror and restore its intended imaging performance.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
