When creating a task about custom entity extraction, labels with nested entities can not be used. However, I find that nested entities can be labeled in the Language Studio web interface. So I want to ask whether Custom Entity recognition supports Nested Entities.

I beleive that the custom entity recognition, does not support nested entities. The labels for custom entity extraction tasks are mostly defined for flat entities, and the model is trained to recognize and extract those specific entities. so here in this case I guess its a no, it doesn't support.

If this helps kindly accept the answer thanks much
