Entity recognizer skill doesn't extracts output.

[surendransuri]

I have tried using EntityRecognizer skill to extract the entities combined with SplitText, EmbeddingSkill.

On the output I am not getting extracted entities, it is showing null values for people, skills, locations etc.

PFB code:
fields = [
SearchField(name="parent_id", type=SearchFieldDataType.String, sortable=True, filterable=True, facetable=True),
SearchField(name="chunk_id", type=SearchFieldDataType.String, key=True, sortable=True, filterable=True, facetable=True, analyzer_name="keyword"),
SearchField(name="chunk", type=SearchFieldDataType.String, sortable=False, filterable=False, facetable=False),
SearchField(name="vector", type=SearchFieldDataType.Collection(SearchFieldDataType.Single), vector_search_dimensions=1536, vector_search_profile_name="myHnswProfile"),
SearchField(name="title", type=SearchFieldDataType.String),
SearchField(name="url", type=SearchFieldDataType.String),
SearchField(name="last_modified", type=SearchFieldDataType.DateTimeOffset),
SearchField(name="people", type=SearchFieldDataType.String),
SearchField(name="skills", type=SearchFieldDataType.String)
]

entity_skill=EntityRecognitionSkill(
description="Skill Used to detect entities from the document",
context= "/document/content/",
categories=["Person",
"Email",
"Location",
"Organization",
"PhoneNumber",
"Address",
"Skill"
],
inputs=[
InputFieldMappingEntry(name="text", source="/document/content"),
InputFieldMappingEntry(name="languageCode", source="/document/language")
],
outputs=[
OutputFieldMappingEntry(name="persons", target_name="people"),
OutputFieldMappingEntry(name="skills", target_name="skills"),
],
)

index_projections = SearchIndexerIndexProjections(
selectors=[
SearchIndexerIndexProjectionSelector(
target_index_name=index_name,
parent_key_field_name="parent_id",
source_context="/document/pages/",
mappings=[
InputFieldMappingEntry(name="chunk", source="/document/pages/"),
InputFieldMappingEntry(name="vector", source="/document/pages/*/vector"),
InputFieldMappingEntry(name="title", source="/document/metadata_storage_name"),
InputFieldMappingEntry(name="people", source="/document/content/people"),
InputFieldMappingEntry(name="skills", source="/document/content/skills")
],
),
],
parameters=SearchIndexerIndexProjectionsParameters(
projection_mode=IndexProjectionMode.SKIP_INDEXING_PARENT_DOCUMENTS
)

indexer = SearchIndexer(
name=indexer_name,
description="Indexer to index documents and generate embeddings",
skillset_name=skillset_name,
target_index_name=index_name,
data_source_name=data_source.name,
# Map the metadata_storage_name field to the title field in the index to display the PDF title in the search results
field_mappings=[FieldMapping(source_field_name="metadata_storage_name", target_field_name="title"),
FieldMapping(source_field_name="metadata_storage_path", target_field_name="url"),
FieldMapping(source_field_name="metadata_storage_last_modified", target_field_name="last_modified")
] ,
output_field_mappings=[FieldMapping(source_field_name="/document/content/people", target_field_name="people"),
FieldMapping(source_field_name="/document/content/skills", target_field_name="skills")]
)

Hi @surendransuri ,

Please check the namedEntities output and confirm any entities are being recognized at all from your text
