A Shallow Semantic NLP Task is a natural language processing task that focuses on extracting meaning from text without requiring deep understanding or inference.
- Context:
- It can (typically) include tasks like Named Entity Recognition and Part-of-Speech Tagging, which involve identifying and classifying elements within a text.
 - It can (often) be solved using rule-based approaches, machine learning models, or hybrid methods.
 - It can range from being a simple annotation task to a more complex sequence labeling task.
 - It can provide support to higher-level NLP tasks such as Semantic Parsing and Information Extraction.
 - It can assist in text preprocessing steps like tokenization and lemmatization.
 - It can serve as a component in larger NLP systems such as chatbots and text analytics platforms.

 - Example(s):
- an Entity Mention Recognition Task, such as Named Entity Recognition that identifies names of people, organizations, and locations in text.
 - a Chunking Task that identifies phrases within sentences.
 - ...
 
 - Counter-Example(s):
- a Syntactic NLP Task, such as: Part-of-Speech tagging that assigns parts of speech to each word in a sentence.
 - a Deep Semantic NLP Task, such as Semantic Role Labeling, which involves deeper understanding of the roles that words play in a sentence.
 - a Discourse Analysis Task that examines the structure and meaning beyond individual sentences.
 - a Sentiment Analysis Task that determines the sentiment or emotional tone of a text.
