Extracting named entities from russian-language documents with different expressiveness of structure

This work is devoted to solving the problem of recognizing named entities for Russian-language texts based on the CRF model. Two sets of data were considered: documents on refinancing with a good document structure, semi-structured texts of court records. The model was tested under various sets of text features and CRF parameters (optimization algorithms). In average for all entities, the best F-measure value for structured documents was 0.99, and for semi-structured ones 0.86.
