SpanMarker with bert-base-cased on Acronym Identification

This is a SpanMarker model trained on the Acronym Identification dataset that can be used for Named Entity Recognition. This SpanMarker model uses bert-base-cased as the underlying encoder. See train.py for the training script.

Is your data not (always) capitalized correctly? Then consider using the uncased variant of this model instead for better performance: tomaarsen/span-marker-bert-base-uncased-acronyms.

Uses

Direct Use for Inference

from span_marker import SpanMarkerModel

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SpanMarkerModel.from_pretrained("tomaarsen/span-marker-bert-base-acronyms")
# Run inference
entities = model.predict("Compression algorithms like Principal Component Analysis (PCA) can reduce noise and complexity.")

Downstream Use

You can finetune this model on your own dataset.

from span_marker import SpanMarkerModel, Trainer

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SpanMarkerModel.from_pretrained("tomaarsen/span-marker-bert-base-acronyms")

# Specify a Dataset with "tokens" and "ner_tag" columns
dataset = load_dataset("conll2003") # For example CoNLL2003

# Initialize a Trainer using the pretrained model & dataset
trainer = Trainer(
    model=model,
    train_dataset=dataset["train"],
    eval_dataset=dataset["validation"],
)
trainer.train()
trainer.save_model("tomaarsen/span-marker-bert-base-acronyms-finetuned")
