  • Abstract
    In this paper, we report a classifier ensemble technique using the search capability of genetic algorithm (GA) for Named Entity Recognition (NER) in biomedical domain. We use Maximum Entropy (ME) framework to build a number of classifiers depending upon the various representations of a set of features. The proposed technique is evaluated with the JNLPBA 2004 data sets that yield the overall recall, precision and F-measure values of 67.98%, 71.68% and 69.78%, respectively.
