Bug report: Use relationships to infer gender #2

Open poorna-kumar opened 7 years ago

poorna-kumar commented 7 years ago

Consider the following example:

"Ariana Smith and her husband Michelle went to the movies. It was great, she said."

Michelle is a husband, so we should infer his gender to be male. However, we currently don't use relationships to infer gender, so we fall back to first name, which is more noisy, and results in an error (mistakenly classifying Michelle as female) here.
