Fine-tuned Flair Model on AjMC German NER Dataset (HIPE-2022)

This Flair model was fine-tuned on the AjMC German NER Dataset using hmBERT Tiny as backbone LM.

The AjMC dataset consists of NE-annotated historical commentaries in the field of Classics, and was created in the context of the Ajax MultiCommentary project.

The following NEs were annotated: pers, work, loc, object, date and scope.

Results

We performed a hyper-parameter search over the following parameters with 5 different seeds per configuration:

• Batch Sizes: [4, 8]
• Learning Rates: [5e-05, 3e-05]

And report micro F1-score on development set:

Configuration	Seed 1	Seed 2	Seed 3	Seed 4	Seed 5	Average
bs4-e10-lr5e-05	0.6471	0.6226	0.6406	0.6087	0.6286	0.6295 ± 0.0151
bs8-e10-lr5e-05	0.5943	0.5707	0.6122	0.5884	0.5848	0.5901 ± 0.0151
bs4-e10-lr3e-05	0.5483	0.52	0.6039	0.5435	0.5689	0.5569 ± 0.0315
bs8-e10-lr3e-05	0.4147	0.3173	0.4288	0.3185	0.4139	0.3786 ± 0.0558

The training log and TensorBoard logs (not available for hmBERT Base model) are also uploaded to the model hub.
