Evaluation of Named Entity Recognition in Historical Argentinian Documents

Research over historical text volumes can be performed by means of automatic tools that help historians achieve more abstract and aggregated points of view. Tasks such as Information Extraction or Text Mining can be performed more efficiently if Machine Learning models are employed. We propose the e...
