ModernBERT NER (CoNLL2003)

This model is a fine-tuned version of answerdotai/ModernBERT-base on the conll2003 dataset for Named Entity Recognition (NER).

Robust performance on tasks involving the recognition of Persons, Organizations, and Locations.

It achieves the following results on the evaluation set:

Loss: 0.0992
Precision: 0.8349
Recall: 0.8563
F1: 0.8455
Accuracy: 0.9752

Model Details

Base Model: ModernBERT: https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2412.13663.
Fine-tuning Dataset: CoNLL2003: https://huggingface.co/datasets/eriktks/conll2003.
Task: Named Entity Recognition (NER)

Training Data

The model is fine-tuned on the CoNLL2003 dataset, a well-known benchmark for NER. This dataset provides a solid foundation for the model to generalize on general English text.

Example Usage

Below is an example of how to use the model with the Hugging Face Transformers library:

from transformers import pipeline

ner = pipeline(task="token-classification", model="IsmaelMousa/modernbert-ner-conll2003", aggregation_strategy="max")

results = ner("Hi, I'm Ismael Mousa from Palestine working for NVIDIA inc.")

for entity in results:
    for key, value in entity.items():
        if key == "entity_group":
            print(f"{entity['word']} => {entity[key]}")

Results:

Ismael Mousa => PER
Palestine => LOC
NVIDIA => ORG
