Entity Projection via Machine Translation for Cross-Lingual NER (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a subset of languages have large annotated corpora for named entity recognition. |
| Approach: | They propose a system that leverages machine translation systems twice to improve named entity recognition. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system outperforms existing methods on Armenian languages by 4.1 points . it achieves state-of-the-art F_1 scores for Armenian, outperforming monolingual model trained on Armenia. |
