BERT Base Uncased Fine-Tuned on CoNLL2003 for English Named Entity Recognition (NER)

This model is a fine-tuned version of BERT-base-cased on the CoNLL2003 dataset for Named Entity Recognition (NER) in English. The CoNLL2003 dataset contains four types of named entities: Person (PER), Location (LOC), Organization (ORG), and Miscellaneous (MISC).

Model Details

  • Model Architecture: BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers)
  • Pre-trained Base Model: bert-base-cased
  • Dataset: CoNLL2003 (NER task)
  • Languages: English
  • Fine-tuned for: Named Entity Recognition (NER)
  • Entities recognized:
  • PER: Person
  • LOC: Location
  • ORG: Organization
  • MISC: Miscellaneous entities

Use Cases

This model is ideal for tasks that require identifying and classifying named entities within English text, such as:

  • Information extraction from unstructured text
  • Content classification and tagging
  • Automated text summarization
  • Question answering systems with a focus on entity recognition

How to Use

To use this model in your code, you can load it via Hugging Face’s Transformers library:

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification
from transformers import pipeline

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("MrRobson9/bert-base-cased-finetuned-conll2003-english-ner")
model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained("MrRobson9/bert-base-cased-finetuned-conll2003-english-ner")

nlp_ner = pipeline("ner", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)
result = nlp_ner("John lives in New York and works for the United Nations.")
print(result)
