Abstract
Machine learning techniques directed to span prediction for textual data are disclosed. As used herein, span prediction is the process of predicting the possible spans of text that can be assigned to a given entity type of a set of predefined entity types. To this end, a machine learning model can be trained to generate values that indicate the predicted probability that a given span of an identified set of spans within text of interest is appropriate for association with a given entity type of the set of predefined entity types. The predicted probability values may be used to determine whether a given span or spans is associated with a given entity type. The predicted spans can also be scored in some examples.
