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: Euler class | Statement: [Chern–Weil theory, constructs, Euler class]

A.
Characteristic Classes
Characteristic Classes is a foundational mathematical text in differential topology and geometry that systematically develops the theory of characteristic classes for vector bundles and fiber bundles.
-
B.
Chern classes
Chern classes are fundamental topological invariants in differential and algebraic geometry that classify complex vector bundles and capture their curvature and twisting properties.
-
C.
Hirzebruch signature theorem
The Hirzebruch signature theorem is a fundamental result in differential topology that expresses the signature of a smooth, compact, oriented 4k-dimensional manifold as a polynomial in its Pontryagin classes.
-
D.
Chern–Weil theory
Chern–Weil theory is a framework in differential geometry that constructs characteristic classes of vector bundles from curvature forms, linking topology and geometry through invariant polynomials.
-
E.
Hirzebruch genera
Hirzebruch genera are topological invariants in algebraic topology and differential geometry that generalize characteristic classes to classify and study manifolds.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
NEDg
Description generation
gpt-5.1
Instruction
Generate a one-sentence description of the target entity. You are given a context triple in the form (subject, predicate, object), where the object is the target entity. # Instructions Use the triple to infer relevant information about the entity. Describe the entity based on what is most defining, well-known. Avoid repeating the information from the triple, unless really essential. # Response Format Return only the sentence: "Description: [one-sentence description of the target entity]"

Provenance (5 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.
