The primary goal of text mining is to retrieve knowledge that is hidden in text and to present it in a concise and simple form to the final users. To achieve this objective, two main directions of research can be defined: Information Extraction (IE) and Information Retrieval (IR). Named Entity Recognition (NER) is one of the most important tasks, since the IE steps will be performed using the names provided by it. The chapter presents the steps necessary to implement solutions using dictionaries and machine learning and hybrid approaches, respectively. Some practical examples for each approach are provided. It also describes the existing approaches to develop NER and normalization solutions, presenting and explaining the core techniques accompanied with examples of some existent systems. The chapter presents one practical example for each approach in order to demonstrate how the several steps could be implemented.
