Yes, this is still true. I know there are different folks working on ML-based NER but none of it is in main line cTAKES yet. There is some ML in the pre-processing stages, and the outputs of that are used by the dictionary tool, but the lookup itself is done without learning. Tim

I was wondering if this is still true and the current release still uses lookup for NER or we have ML NER for the current version. Thanks, Maral
