Arindam Dey, Bipul Syam Prukayastha . Named Entity Recognition using Gazetteer Method and N-gram Technique for an Inflectional Language: A Hybrid Approach. International Journal of Computer Applications. 84, 9 ( December 2013), 31-35. DOI=10.5120/14607-2859
Named Entity Recognition (NER) is a task to discover the Named Entities (NEs) in a document and then categorize these NEs into diverse Named Entity classes such as Name of Person, Location, River, Organization etc. Area of concentration is the performance of NER in the Indian languages (IL).

Different types of problem faced in handling Nepali Grammar are also described.
