US Patent 9190055 Named entity recognition with personalized models

Features are disclosed for generating and using personalized named entity recognition models. A personalized model can be trained for a particular user, and then interpolated with a general model for use in named entity recognition. In some embodiments, a model may be trained for a group of users, where the users share some similarity relevant to language processing. In some embodiments, various base models may be trained so as to provide better accuracy for certain types of language input than a general model. Users may be associated with any number of base models, and the associated based models may then be interpolated for use in named entity recognition on input from the corresponding user.
