Named Entity Recognition (NER) is a fun-damental task in Natural Language Process-ing (NLP), particularly in the analysis of Chi-nese historical texts. In this work, we pro-pose an innovative NER model based on Gu-jiRoBERTa, incorporating Conditional Ran-dom Fields (CRF) and Long Short Term Mem-ory Network(LSTM) to enhance sequence la-beling performance. Our model is evaluated on three datasets from the EvaHan2025 competi-tion, demonstrating superior performance over the baseline model, SikuRoBERTa-BiLSTM-CRF. The proposed approach effectively cap-tures contextual dependencies and improves entity boundary recognition. Experimental re-sults show that our method achieves consistent improvements across almost all evaluation met-rics, highlighting its robustness and effective-ness in handling ancient Chinese texts.

We present a multi-strategy Named Entity Recognition (NER) system for ancient Chi-nese texts in EvaHan2025. Addressing dataset heterogeneity, we use a Conditional Random Field (CRF) for Tasks A and C to handle six entity types’ complex dependencies, and a lightweight Softmax classifier for Task B’s simpler three-entity tagset. Ablation studies on training data confirm CRF’s superiority in capturing sequence dependencies and Softmax’s computational advantage for simpler tasks. On blind tests, our system achieves F1-scores of 83.94%, 88.31%, and 82.15% for Test A, B, and C—outperforming baselines by 2.46%, 0.81%, and 9.75%. With an overall F1 improvement of 4.30%, it excels across historical and medical domains. This adaptability enhances knowledge extraction from ancient texts, offering a scalable NER framework for low-resource, complex languages.
