Information Extraction with LLMs
This section contains a collection of prompts for exploring information extraction capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs).
Overview
Information extraction is a crucial task in natural language processing that involves identifying and extracting structured information from unstructured text. LLMs excel at this task due to their understanding of context and ability to follow specific extraction patterns.
Key Applications
- Entity Extraction: Identifying names, organizations, dates, and other entities
- Model Name Extraction: Extracting AI/ML model names from research papers
- Data Mining: Converting unstructured text into structured data
- Research Analysis: Automating the extraction of key information from academic papers
- Business Intelligence: Extracting insights from documents and reports

Extract Model Names from Papers
Learn how to use LLMs to extract model names from machine learning paper abstracts with structured output formatting.
Techniques
1. Structured Output Formatting
- Define clear output formats (e.g., JSON, arrays, tables)
- Use consistent delimiters and structures
- Handle cases where no information is found
2. Prompt Engineering for Extraction
- Clear task definition
- Example demonstrations
- Output format specifications
- Error handling instructions
3. Iterative Refinement
- Start with simple extraction tasks
- Gradually increase complexity
- Validate outputs and refine prompts
Best Practices
- Be Specific: Clearly define what information to extract
- Provide Examples: Include sample inputs and expected outputs
- Handle Edge Cases: Account for missing or ambiguous information
- Validate Outputs: Implement checks for extraction quality
- Use Appropriate Models: Choose models based on task complexity
