Abstract

An entity recognition model is trained to use gazetteers to recognize entities referenced in documents. When a document associated with a user is received for recognizing entities referenced therein, a gazetteer is selected based on user contexts associated with the user. The document is analyzed using the gazetteer according to the entity recognition model to recognize an entity referenced therein. Additional facts associated with the recognized entities and actions applicable to the recognized entities are provided to enable the user to perform the applicable actions against the recognized entity.
