Note that we consider all city-state pairs that co-occur in the same paragraph with the attorney name and use the highest scoring city-state pair to set our feature function value. Firm name similarity function. This feature measures the TFIDF cosine similarity between the law firm name specified in the authority file record and law firm names in the text structured record.
We measure recall by dividing the number of correct positive matches made by the number of positive instances manually identified. e. e. co-referring) pair which has been identified. One method of creating test data is to randomly select structured records extracted from the text and manually match them to records in the authority file. Typically, we want to have at least 300 positive test record pairs. For our example attorney NE resolution system, we created 500 manual matches between Named Entity Recognition and Resolution in Legal Text 39 Table 4.
The operation of particular feature functions is governed by the semantics of the fields being compared. Two types of similarity functions merit special mention because they work well for many field classes. They are the TFIDF cosine similarity function and the family of string edit distance functions. The TFIDF cosine similarity function computes the cosine similarity of a string field in the text structure record and a string field value in the authority record. The inverse document frequency values for words in the record field are computed from the field in the authority file.
