Judicious Selection of Training Data in Assisting Language for Multilingual Neural NER (P18-2)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to improve NER performance add training data from one or more assisting languages to the primary language. |
| Approach: | They propose a metric based on symmetric KL divergence to filter out highly divergent training instances in the assisting language. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves NER performance in many languages, including those with limited training data. |
