  # Named Entity Recognition model for Spanish/English
  ## robertuito-ner
  
  Repository: [https://github.com/pysentimiento/pysentimiento/](https://github.com/finiteautomata/pysentimiento/)
  
  
  Model trained with the Spanish/English split of the [LinCE NER corpus](https://ritual.uh.edu/lince/), a code-switched benchmark . Base model is [RoBERTuito](https://github.com/pysentimiento/robertuito), a RoBERTa model trained in Spanish tweets.
