# Towards Robust Named Entity Recognition for Historic German

Based on [our paper](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/W19-4312/)
we release a new model trained on the LFT dataset.

**Note:** We use BPEmbeddings instead of the combination of
Wikipedia, Common Crawl and character embeddings (as used in the paper),
so save space and training/inferencing time.

# Results

| Dataset \ Run | Run 1 | Run 2 | Run 3†    | Avg.
| ------------- | ----- | ----- | --------- | ------------

| Test          | 77.07 | 77.35 | 77.20     | 77.21

Paper reported an averaged F1-score of 77.51.
