Abstract(in English) Maintenance of a NE (Named Entity) dictionary is important for grasp of not only a NE extraction tool but also language knowledge and world knowledge. Maintenance by human is expensive, and Sekine suggested technique to get a Named Entity dictionary ready with English search log of WEB search engine. (Sekine, Suzuki 2007). It is a kind of a method to find a synonymous word in using bootstrapping, and the characteristic is to use a large-scale NE dictionary and context of NE. However, acquisition of search log is usually difficult. It is convenient if we can use newspaper articles. We conducted experiments to improve the acquisition precision using newspaper articles.
