Abstract :
This article presents a study on Named Entities (NE) recognition using contextual information present on a Biomedical corpus. Related work indicates that the use of context (words surrounding a word) can assist the NE recognition. This work presents experimental results to evaluate the impact of different context settings, using machine learning, for the NE recognition.
