Named entity extraction task for organization names in news articles has achieved success in data for news wrote in general, natural text. However, we focused on articles in finance domain containing numerical information representing an organization like ticker, corporate id, securities code, and contents organized in a table structure. Previous studied rarely handled text including structured data, making this type of extraction difficult. In this study, we built text dataset containing these structured data mechanically and succeeded in improving our model performance with mixed data without degrading the accuracy of existing organization name extraction task.
