Hybrid machine-learning systems and methods can be used to perform automatic keyphrase extraction from input text, such as historical records. For example, a computer-implemented method for extracting keyphrases from input text can include receiving input text having a plurality of words and identifying a set of candidate phrases from the plurality of words and a score for each of the candidate phrases using one or more unsupervised machine-learning models. The method can also include identifying named entities from the set of candidate phrases using one or more supervised machine-learning models and determining an updated set of scores for at least some of the candidate phrases within the set based on the named entities identified using the supervised machine-learning model. The method can also include identifying a keyphrase from the set of candidate phrases based on the updated set of scores.
