Intelligent Tagging Semantic Metadata Tags

This document provides a list of all supported semantic metadata tags and their attributes, along with descriptions and examples.

For a conceptual explanation of these tags, see How Does Intelligent Tagging Work?

Use the x-calais-selectiveTags header (mandatory for new users, soon-to-be mandatory for all users) to specify which of the metadata types may appear in the API response.

Note to Internal Intelligent Tagging users: See the Supplementary Guide for Internal Intelligent Tagging (for internal customers who do not connect through API Gateway) for details about a few differences in the tagging output.

Note: Intelligent Tagging also supports several non-English languages: Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Spanish. Each language supports a specific subset of metadata types. For details, see Intelligent Tagging for Non-English Languages.

 

Entity MarkupTags

Each Intelligent Tagging entity markup tag identifies an Entity or a Relation. Entities are straightforward things like companies, people, cities, telephone numbers; Relations are more complex mentions that indicate relationships between things. For example, deals, IPOs, analyst recommendations, company reorganizations.

Name InstanceInfo

Definition

Describes a mention of an Intelligent Tagging type found in the text.

Attributes

Detection: The text string in which the mention was identified.

docid: The unique ID of the containing document, generated by Intelligent Tagging and formatted as a URI. Note that this attribute is not relevant to the JSON output format.

Anniversary

em/e/Anniversary

Definition

This tag is generated when Intelligent Tagging identifies a mention or indication of an anniversary.

Attributes

forenduserdisplay: A recommendation of whether the tag is suitable as a search item for a specific document (true) or whether the metadata is primarily of use for aggregation and analytics on large quantities of documents (false).

name: The text string from the input document that represents the anniversary. When there are multiple mentions, the most complete mention is used.

Example 1

Input Text

Spain marked the first anniversary of the train bombings in Madrid that took 200 lives.

Extracted Entity

Definition

The name of a city or other municipality. Districts or neighborhoods within a city (e.g. Soho, London) are not extracted.

Attributes

forenduserdisplay: A recommendation of whether the tag is suitable as a search item for a specific document (true) or whether the metadata is primarily of use for aggregation and analytics on large quantities of documents (false).

name: The text string from the input document that represents the entity. When there are multiple mentions that refer to the same entity, the most complete mention is used.

Related Tag

er/Geo/City (Disambiguation Tag)

Company

This is one of the actively enhanced and supported metadata types.

em/e/Company

Definition

A full or partial company name. The term "Company" refers to any business organization, including newspapers, media companies, law firms, etc.

Note: A company name in an index name is not extracted. For example, JPMorgan is not extracted from the phrase, “JPMorgan Alerian MLP Index ETN.” Bloomberg is not extracted from the phrase, “Bloomberg Consumer Comfort Index.Barclays is not extracted from the phrase, “Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index UCITSETF.” Etc.

Attributes

confidencelevel: A confidence score on a scale of 0 to 1. The value represents the probability that the extracted entity is indeed of the assigned type.

For example:

  • The confidence level score for an em/e/person tag indicates the probability that the extracted person is indeed a person.
  • The confidence level score for an em/e/company tag indicates the probability that the extracted company is indeed a company.
  • The confidence level score for an em/e/pharmaceuticalDrug tag indicates the probability that the extracted pharmaceutical drug is indeed a pharmaceutical drug.

The higher the value, the higher the probability.

The consuming application can use this score to achieve higher accuracy results by ignoring instances with confidence scores below a specified level. Note that boosting Precision in this manner is at the expense of Recall.

Every em/e tag that displays this attribute also has a corresponding Confidence tag.

forenduserdisplay: A recommendation of whether the tag is suitable as a search item for a specific document (true) or whether the metadata is primarily of use for aggregation and analytics on large quantities of documents (false).

The confidence score determines if the forenduserdisplay value is true or false.

inlineric: The company Reuters Instrument Code (RIC), if it is mentioned in the text.

name: The text string from the input document that represents the entity. When there are multiple mentions that refer to the same entity, the most complete mention is used.

nationality: The nationality of the extracted Person, Company, or Organization, if it is mentioned in the text.

recognizedas: Indicates if the extraction was based on a company RIC, company ticker, or company name found in the text. Possible values are: ric, ticker, name.

Ticker extraction is a premium feature, enabled with the x-calais-EnableTickerExtraction header.

Please note that Intelligent Tagging identifies and extracts primary tickers in the text. For example, “Falabella,” the primary ticker of the company SACI Falabella, is identified as a company mention, whereas “FALABE-OSA,” a non-primary ticker, is not extracted.

To extend ticker extraction to non-primary tickers, ALSO define the x-calais-EnableTickerRecallOriented header. Defining both headers triggers recall-oriented ticker extraction which is optimized for company tagging of research content such as analyst emails. (But not optimized for documents like long research reports.)

All rics are identified and extracted.

Note: The same text may also be identified by Intelligent Tagging as a Merger or an Acquisition. Intelligent Tagging generates em/r/merger and em/r/acquisition tags for identified Mergers and Acquisitions without attempting to locate them in the Refinitiv dataset.

Attributes

acquirer: The purchasing company.

confidencelevel: A confidence score on a scale of 0 to 1. The value represents the probability that the extracted relation is indeed of the assigned type.

For example:

  • The confidence level score for an em/r/deal tag indicates the probability that the deal is indeed a deal between the companies specified by the Acquirer and Target attributes.
  • The confidence level score for an em/r/bankruptcy tag indicates the probability that text actually refers to a bankruptcy involving the company specified by the Company attribute.
  • The confidence level score for an em/r/IPO tag indicates the probability that the text actually refers to an IPO involving the company specified by the Company attribute.

The higher the value, the higher the probability.

The consuming application can use this score to achieve higher accuracy results by ignoring instances with confidence scores below a specified level. Note that boosting Precision in this manner is at the expense of Recall.

Note that this em/r/tag also has a corresponding Confidence tag.

  • 1.0 – This value is reserved for the company identified as the reporting company in a document with a predefined format such as an SEC report.
  • 0.8 – Entities defined as having high relevance receive this score. For example: a company that is mentioned in the title; a company mentioned prominently or frequently in the document.
  • 0.5, 0.2 –These scores are assigned to entities that are not highly relevant to the story. For example: a company that is mentioned only once towards the end of a long document; a company mentioned in passing; a company mentioned as a representing law firm, financial advisor, underwriter, etc.

Note: If the tagging output contains multiple companies with relevance 0.5, or 0.2, it may be an indication that the input document is made up of multiple paragraphs or sections, where each one discusses a single company in detail (for example, Top News, or Breaking News type stories), or that the input document includes charts or tables that display multiple companies. In this case, your use case determines if the company tag is of interest.

  • 0.0 – This value is reserved for entities identified as irrelevant to the story. For example, mentions of companies as rating agencies, reporting agencies, stock exchanges, and social applications receive a score of 0.

relevancecont: A more granular relevance score. This attribute is relevant only to Company entities.

This attribute is not relevant to JSON output.

  •  A score that is 0.8 and above indicates a high relevance.
  • A score of 0 indicates zero relevance.
  • All other scores indicate not high relevance.

 

For bothrelevance and relevancecont scores, the three following buckets are the most indicative ones:

  •  A score equal to or greater than 0.8 indicates high relevance.
  •  A score greater than zero and less than 0.8 indicates that the entity is not highly relevant to the story.
  • A score of 0 indicates zero relevance.

 

Recommendations for Using Relevance Scores Related to Company Tags

  • For the highest accuracy, we recommend ranking companies based on the relevance score and not on therelevancecont score. A score of 0.2 should be considered the same as a score of 0.5.
  • If your use case requires high precision, you can filter for High Relevance company tags only.
  •  If you are monitoring a specific company and do not want to miss any hints/indications, you should not filter company tags by relevance score.

Confidence Tag

For a conceptual explanation of this tag, see the section about Confidence Scoring in How Does Intelligent Tagging Work?

Currently, Intelligent Tagging generates Confidence tags for the following entity and relation types: Company, Person, Pharmaceutical Drug, Bankruptcy, Deal, IPO.

The consuming application can achieve higher accuracy results by ignoring instances with confidence scores below a specified level. Note, however, that raising the specified level boosts Precision at the expense of Recall.

Note: Both the Confidence tag and the entity markup tag itself contain the confidence score. So you can retrieve the (same) confidence score from either tag.

 

Confidence

Definition

Indicates the probability that the associated e.g. extracted person or company is indeed a person or company.

Attributes

aggregate: The confidence score. The confidencelevel attribute of the related entity markup tag has the same value. So you can retrieve the confidence score from either tag.

docid: The unique ID of the containing document, generated by Intelligent Tagging, and formatted as a URI.

subject: A hash tag generated by Intelligent Tagging. This ID points to the associated extracted entity or relation.

The following attributes are for internal use by Intelligent Tagging:

dblookup: A value used internally by Intelligent Tagging to calculate the confidence score.

resolution: A value used internally by Intelligent Tagging to calculate the confidence score.

statisticalfeature: A value used internally by Intelligent Tagging to calculate the confidence score.

Note: In the JSON output format, because related tags are nested, the docid and subject attributes are not displayed in the Confidence tag.

Example

rcscode: The topic code, as defined in the RCS (Refinitiv Classification Services) taxonomy. This attribute is relevant to RCS topics only.

score: A confidence score on a scale of 0 to 1. The value indicates the probability that the topic is indeed discussed in the text and also how centric the topic is to the text. The higher the value, the higher the probability.

The consuming application can use this score to achieve higher accuracy results by ignoring instances with scores below a specified level.

shortName: Output for TRCS topics only. If the name attribute includes the string “(TRBC),” then the shortName attribute is the same, minus “(TRBC).” If the name attribute does not include the “(TRBC)” string, then the name and shortName attributes are identical. For example, if the topic name is “Technology Equipment (TRBC),” then the shortName is “Technology Equipment.”

Slugline Tag

This is one of the actively enhanced and supported metadata types.

This is a premium metadata type.

For a conceptual explanation of this tag, see How Does Intelligent Tagging Work?

Slugline

Definition

A Reuters slug line that describes what the document is about as a whole.

To trigger slugline tagging, use the x-calais-selectiveTags:slugline header value. When slugline tagging is enabled, each Intelligent Tagging output document may contain up to 8 slugline tags.

Attributes

forenduserdisplay: A recommendation of whether the tag is suitable as a search item for a specific document (true) or whether the metadata is primarily of use for aggregation and analytics on large quantities of documents (false).All slugline tags are assigned the value, true

slugline: The slug line assigned to the document by Intelligent Tagging.

isactive: Currently not supported.

creationdate: Currently not supported.

slugid: Currently not supported.

confidencelevel: A confidence score on a scale of 0 to 1. The value represents the probability that the document is indeed about the event described by the assigned slug line.

The higher the value, the higher the probability.

The consuming application can use this score to achieve higher accuracy results by ignoring documents with slugline tags with confidence scores below a specified level. Note that boosting Precision in this manner is at the expense of Recall.

Industry Tag

For a conceptual explanation of this tag, see How Does Intelligent Tagging Work?

This is a premium metadata type.

Industry

Definition

Identifies the industries related to the companies mentioned in the document.

Attributes

docid: The unique ID of the containing document, generated by Intelligent Tagging and formatted as a URI. Note that this attribute is not relevant to the JSON output format.

forenduserdisplay: A recommendation of whether the tag is suitable as a search item for a specific document (true) or whether the metadata is primarily of use for aggregation and analytics on large quantities of documents (false).

name: The name of the industry.

permid: The Refinitiv unique ID (PermID) for this Industry.

To link directly to related, high-quality, curated Refinitiv data on the Open PermID website, add this prefix to the permid value: “https://permid.org/1-“

For example: https://permid.org/1-4294951707

rcscode: The industry code, as defined in the RCS (Refinitiv Classification Services) taxonomy.

relevance: Indicates how relevant the industry is to the story. Values range from 0 to 1. The higher the score, the higher the relevance.

trbccode: The industry code, as defined in the Refinitiv Business Classification (TRBC) taxonomy.

ForEndUserDisplay Attribute

The forEndUserDisplay attribute is present in Topic (DocCat), Entity (em/e), Relation (em/r), Slugline tags, and SocialTags, and Industry tags. The attribute value (true or false) is a recommendation of whether the tag is suitable as a search item for a specific document (true) or whether the metadata is primarily of use for aggregation and analytics on large quantities of documents (false).

Some metadata types have a set forenduserdisplay value, while for other metadata types, the forenduserdisplay value is dynamic:

  • DocCat (Topic) tags– RCS topics optimized with (DIY) Self Service Classification - the forenduserdisplay value is always true.
  • SocialTags – the forenduserdisplay value is always true.
  • Slugline tags – the forenduserdisplay value is always true.
  • Entities and Relations - Some entity and relation metadata types have set forenduserdisplay values, while other entity and relation metadata types have dynamic forenduserdisplay values, determined per instance.

For example:

Every instance of the em/r/Dividend tag (the Dividend relation tag) defines forenduserdisplay as true.

Each instance of the em/e/Company tag is assigned a forenduserdisplay value based on a confidence score calculated for that specific company tag during extraction.

See ForEndUserDisplay attribute in Entity and Relation Tags for further information.

 

Generally speaking, the forenduserdisplay=true status is assigned to metadata types that consistently provide high precision (>80%) results based on our tests.

Continue reading this section for more detailed information and best practice recommendations for each metadata type.

 

Best Practice Recommendations

If your use case requires high precision, you can make use of the ForEndUserDisplay attribute to filter the tagging output according to your needs.

The ForEndUserDisplay value is not relevant (there is no need to filter out tags with ForEndUserDisplay =false value) to the following types of use cases:

  • Aggregation/graph use cases, or use cases where you can gain confidence by processing multiple examples.

For example, looking for trends over time.

  • Use cases where you may not want to lose hints/indications and can afford a higher rate of precision errors.

For example, monitoring a specific company, industry or country where you don’t want to miss anything.

 

ForEndUserDisplay Attribute in DocCat (Topic) Tags

Topics optimized with (DIY) Self Service Classification are assigned the forenduserdisplay=true value.

The DocCat tag also assigns a confidence score on a scale of 0 to 1. The value indicates the probability that the topic is indeed discussed in the text and is centric to the text. The higher the value, the higher the probability.

For DocCat (topic) tags, we suggest using the forenduserdisplay value together with the score value to filter the tagging output to suit your use case.

For example, if your use case requires a high level of precision, we suggest the following:

  • If the forenduserdisplay=true and the score is greater than 0.5, use the tag.
  • If the forenduserdisplay=false and the score is greater than 0.9, use the tag.
  • For a semi-automated editorial workflow, if the forenduserdisplay=false and the score is less than 0.9, we suggest marking the tags as maybe being about the topic.
  • For a fully automated workflow, we suggest ignoring tags with the forenduserdisplay=false and a score of less than 0.9.

ForEndUserDisplay Attribute in Social Tags

The forenduserdisplay value is always true for social tags.

 

ForEndUserDisplay Attribute in Entity and Relation Tags

For entities and relations, the forenduserdisplay value is determined as follows:

  • em/e/Company, em/e/Person, em/e/PharmaceuticalDrug, em/r/Bankruptcy, em/r/Deal, em/r/IPO: forenduserdisplay value is defined per tag instance, based on the confidencelevel value. For example, Intelligent Tagging determines and assigns the appropriate forenduserdisplay value to each instance of the em/e/Company tag in the tagging output.
  • All other entities and relations: Each metadata tag type has a set value (listed below).

For example, every em/r/Dividend tag is assigned the forenduserdisplay=true value.

As previously mentioned, the forenduserdisplay=true status is assigned to metadata types that consistently provide high precision (>80%) results.

ForEndUserDisplay attribute in Slugline Tags

The forenduserdisplay value is always true for slugline tags.

(The Slugline tag is a premium metadata type.)

 

Recommendations

If your use case requires a high level of precision, we suggest using the forenduserdisplay value to filter the tagging output as follows:

  • forenduserdisplay=true: Use all the tags that define forenduserdisplay=true.
  • forenduserdisplay=false: For a semi-automated editorial workflow, we suggest marking these tags as maybe being about the entity or relation; for a fully automated workflow, we suggest ignoring these tags.

 

 

PermID Attribute

The PermID attribute is output by multiple Intelligent Tagging metadata types. A PermID is a Refinitiv unique ID which is applied consistently across all documents processed by Intelligent Tagging.

The PermID value identifies an entity type (for example, the Organization entity), or a particular entity (for example, Bank of Japan), depending on the metadata type.

PermID Attribute in DocCat (Topic) Tags

Linking to Open PermID

 

In Entity Markup Tags

With two exceptions (em/e/currency, and em/e/currencyPair), Entity Markup tags output a PermID attribute value that identifies the entity type.

The following Entity Markup tags output a PermID attribute value that identifies the entity type:

  • em/e/MarketIndex
  • em/e/Organization
  • em/e/Person
  • em/r/CompanyEarningsAnnouncement
  • em/r/Deal
  • em/r/IPO

 

For example, the PermID attribute value of the following em/e/Organization tag is the Refinitiv unique ID of the entity type (organization), and not of the organization itself (Bank of Japan). 

JSON Output example:

    	
            

 "http://d.opencalais.com/genericHasher-1/c458a04c-6eb1-35df-b5ba-45b5ee4a97a4": {

        "nationality": "Japanese",

        "_typeReference": "http://s.opencalais.com/1/type/em/e/Organization",

        "permid": "https://permid.org/1-404010",

</rdf:Description>

In fact, every em/e/Organization tag exposes the same PermID attribute value—the Refinitiv unique ID (PermID) for the Organization entity type. This enables linking all extractions of a particular metadata type, and can be used to build a knowledge graph.

 

The following Entity Markup tags output a PermID attribute value that identifies the extracted entity (for example Japanese Yen) and not the metadata type (currency):

  • em/e/Currency
  • em/e/CurrencyPair

For example, the PermID attribute value of the following em/e/Currency tag is the Refinitiv unique ID for the currency, Japanese Yen.

In Resolution and Industry Tags

In an entity resolution (disambiguation) tag or an Industry tag, the PermID attribute value identifies the specific entity or industry.

For example, the PermID attribute value in the following er/Organization tag is the Refinitiv unique ID for Bank of Japan.

 

JSON Output Example:

    	
            

 "resolutions": [

            {

                "rcscode": "M:6",

                "name": "Bank of Japan",

                "permid": "8589934442"

            }

</rdf:Description>

 

The ID can be used to extract information about the entity or industry from the Refinitiv dataset. The ID also supports linkage across documents processed by Intelligent Tagging.

The following resolution (disambiguation) tags output the PermID attribute value that identifies the resolved entity (i.e. the unique ID of a specific company, city, deal, person, etc.

  • er/geo/City
  • er/Company
  • er/Continent
  • er/geo/Country
  • er/Deal
  • er/Organization
  • er/geo/ProvinceOrState
  • er/geo/Region
  •  er/TopmostPublicParentCompany

 

In DocCat (Topic) Tags

A DocCat tag’s PermID attribute identifies the topic.

 

Linking to Open PermID

For the entity types supported by Open PermID—Person, Company, Currency, Industry, Organization, you can use the PermID exposed in the tagging output to access related, high-quality, curated data from the Refinitiv data sets.

Simply add the prefix “https://permid.org/1-“ to the permid value to create a direct link to the relevant page on the Open PermID website:

For example: https://permid.org/1-8589934442

The company and person resolution tags also include the openpermid attribute (called the "id" attribute in the JSON output), a direct link to Open PermID. (This attribute is not included in the internal Intelligent Tagging output.)
 

JSON Output Example:

    	
            

"resolutions": [

            {

                "name": "BANK OF ENGLAND",

                "permid": "8589934365",

                "ispublic": "false",

                "commonname": "Bank of England",
