Abstract
According to one or more embodiments of the present invention, an input request to a natural language processing (NLP) system is optimized. A window-size is selected for annotating an input corpus. The corpus is divided into partitions of the window-size, each partition processed separately. Further, a first set of entities is identified in a first partition, and a second set of entities in a second partition. Further, a third partition containing a first segment and a second segment is determined. The first segment overlaps the first partition, and the second segment overlaps the second partition. The method further includes identifying a third set of entities in the third partition. In response to the third set of entities being distinct from a set of entities from the first segment and the second segment, the window-size is adjusted. The input request for the NLP system is generated using the adjusted window-size.
