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.
Wirtinger presentation of knot groups
The Wirtinger presentation of knot groups is a classical method in knot theory that describes the fundamental group of a knot complement using generators and relations derived from a knot diagram.
-
B.
Conway notation for knots
Conway notation for knots is a mathematical system introduced by John H. Conway that encodes knot and link diagrams into concise symbolic expressions to classify and study them.
-
C.
Jordan curve theorem
The Jordan curve theorem is a fundamental result in topology stating that any simple closed curve in the plane divides the plane into exactly two distinct regions, an "inside" and an "outside."
-
D.
Dehn surgery
Dehn surgery is a fundamental operation in 3-manifold topology that modifies a 3-dimensional manifold by cutting out a solid torus and gluing it back in a different way, playing a central role in the classification and study of 3-manifolds.
-
E.
Smale’s paradox
Smale’s paradox is a result in differential topology showing that a sphere can be turned inside out in three-dimensional space through smooth deformations without tearing or creasing, challenging intuitive notions of geometry.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

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]"
