SLENDER: Structured Outputs for SLM-based NER in Low-Resource Englishes (2025.acl-industry)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Named Entity Recognition (NER) for low-resource variants of English remains challenging, as most models are trained on datasets predominantly focused on American or British English. |
| Approach: | They propose a new output format for Named Entity Recognition (NER) that achieves a three-fold reduction in inference time compared to JSON format. |
| Outcome: | The proposed output format achieves a three-fold reduction in inference time on average compared to JSON format, which is widely used for structured outputs. |
