Dynamic Gazetteer Integration in Multilingual Models for Cross-Lingual and Cross-Domain Named Entity Recognition (2022.naacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Named entity recognition (NER) models trained on CoNLL do not transfer well to other domains, even within the same language. |
| Approach: | They propose a token-level gating layer to augment pre-trained multilingual transformers with gazetteers containing named entities (NE) from a target language or domain. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves on cross-lingual transfer with an F1 score of 92.92 for English and an average of 89.43 across all languages in CoNLL. |
