The Open NEE Model defines an extension of the Open Annotation Data Model (http://www.openannotation.org/spec/core) that allows describing in RDF the result of a Named Entity Extraction (NEE) process, enabling thereby an application to run advanced (SPARQL) queries over the annotated data. The model also exploits the Open NEE Configuration Model (http://www.ics.forth.gr/isl/oncm) for relating the output of a NEE process with an applied configuration (serving provenance information to the output of the entire NEE process). @en
