Named Entity Recognition (NER) is a crucial natural language processing task that extracts and classifies named entities from unstructured text into predefined categories. While existing NER methods have shown success in general domains, they often face significant challenges when applied to specialized contexts like Filipino cultural and historical texts. These challenges stem from the unique linguistic features, and diverse naming conventions. This research introduces an enhanced rule-based NER approach that specifically addresses these challenges. At its core, the system utilizes curated Corpus of Historical Filipino and Philippine English (COHFIE), which serves as both training and evaluation data. This research presents an enhanced rule-based approach for NER using a Corpus of Historical Filipino and Philippine English (COHFIE) building on pattern-learning methods, incorporating character and token features, and by using positive and negative example sets. To enrich the classification process, we used the International Committee for Documentation – Conceptual Reference Model (CIDOC-CRM), a cultural heritage framework, to provide a more nuanced categorization of entities based on their historical and cultural significance. Tested across existing Filipino based models (calamanCy and RoBERTa Tagalog), the enhanced model shows improvement on identifying entities related to Filipino culture (CUL) and history terms (PER, ORG, LOC).
