Abstract
The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system extracts text windows of varying length from text in one or more content items associated with an entity. Next, the system applies a machine learning model to features for the text windows to produce scores representing the likelihoods that the text windows contain addresses. The system then identifies, based on the scores and validation rules applied to the text windows, one of the text windows as an address for the entity. Finally, the system stores the selected text window as the address for the entity.
