Yes, that's pretty much it...For recognising a new named entity you need of course training data marking the named entities you're interested in and then you can train a maxent model...hope that helps...

Hi,

 From the NameFinderME class and existing models, I noticed that I can train
person, location, date, etc.  What if I want to create my own type, say,
personality?  Do I basically create the corresponding
en-ner-personality.train and en-ner-personality.bin and run the same code
shown in the documentation under Training API (Under NameFinder Training)?

Thanks,

Anthony
