Abstract: There are rich semantic relations and structural information between nested named entities,which is very important for the implementation of downstream tasks such as relation extraction and event extraction.The accuracy of text information extraction model has gradually exceeded the traditional rule-based method.Therefore,many scholars have carried out research on nested named entity recognition technology based on deep learning,and obtained the most advanced performance.This paper reviews the existing nested named entity recognition technology,This paper gives a comprehensive review of the existing nested named entity recognition technology,introduces the most representative methods and the latest application technology of nested named entity recognition,and discusses and prospects the challenges and development direction in the future.

Key words: Hypergraph, Named entity recognition, Nested named entities, Sequence labeling, Span
