Abstract
Lists of names are an important knowledge source for many systems which carry out named entity recognition. It is shown that augmenting hand-crafted lists with those derived from corpora can improve their performance. Two methods for improving automatically acquired lists are presented. The best corpus-derived lists are shown to out-perform the hand-crafted ones by 4%.
