topic Defining rules for people names in SAS Data Science https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Data-Science/Defining-rules-for-people-names/m-p/238155#M9514 <P>Hello All,</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I am a SAS newbie and had a question regarding defifining rules for people names.&nbsp; What I am trying to do is write a rule which identifies a person's name from a document.&nbsp; There are few patterns (I am assuming) that have been defined by studying the sample documents. For example. Mr. John Doe (the first two letters with a period after it).&nbsp; Also, if it is a email cc: and then the next two words would be a name.&nbsp; I understand that defining the names are very chanllenging which is why we are not looking at 100% accuracy.&nbsp; But something lie a 70% accuracy would be good.&nbsp; Can somebody help me with how I can proceed with wiriting the rules? Please! Thanks!!!</P> Mon, 07 Dec 2015 20:25:07 GMT a_smith12345 2015-12-07T20:25:07Z Defining rules for people names https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Data-Science/Defining-rules-for-people-names/m-p/238155#M9514 <P>Hello All,</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I am a SAS newbie and had a question regarding defifining rules for people names.&nbsp; What I am trying to do is write a rule which identifies a person's name from a document.&nbsp; There are few patterns (I am assuming) that have been defined by studying the sample documents.
