Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Named entity recognition (NER) requires expensive multi-level annotation. |
| Approach: | They evaluate four approaches to learning nested structure from flat annotations alone . on NEREL, a Russian benchmark, they find the best method achieves 26.37% inner F1 . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method closes 40% of the gap to full nested supervision on a Russian benchmark with 29 entity types where 21% of entities are nest. |
