# span-marker-bert-base-multilingual-cased-multinerd

This model is a fine-tuned version of [bert-base-multilingual-cased](https://huggingface.co/bert-base-multilingual-cased) on an [Babelscape/multinerd](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Babelscape/multinerd) dataset.

Is your data not (always) capitalized correctly? Then consider using the uncased variant of this model instead for better performance: 
[lxyuan/span-marker-bert-base-multilingual-uncased-multinerd](https://huggingface.co/lxyuan/span-marker-bert-base-multilingual-uncased-multinerd).

This model achieves the following results on the evaluation set:
- Loss: 0.0049
- Overall Precision: 0.9242
- Overall Recall: 0.9281
- Overall F1: 0.9261
- Overall Accuracy: 0.9852

Test set results:
- test_loss: 0.005226554349064827,
- test_overall_accuracy: 0.9851129807294873,
- test_overall_f1: 0.9270450073152169,
- test_overall_precision: 0.9281906912835416,
- test_overall_recall: 0.9259021481405626,
- test_runtime: 2690.9722,
- test_samples_per_second: 150.748,
- test_steps_per_second: 4.711


This is a replication of Tom's work. Everything remains unchanged, 
except that we extended the number of training epochs to 3 for a 
slightly longer training duration and set the gradient_accumulation_steps to 2.

## Inference Example

```python
# install span_marker
(env)$ pip install span_marker


from span_marker import SpanMarkerModel

model = SpanMarkerModel.from_pretrained("lxyuan/span-marker-bert-base-multilingual-cased-multinerd")

description = "Singapore is renowned for its hawker centers offering dishes \
like Hainanese chicken rice and laksa, while Malaysia boasts dishes such as \
nasi lemak and rendang, reflecting its rich culinary heritage."

entities = model.predict(description)

entities
>>>
[
  {'span': 'Singapore', 'label': 'LOC', 'score': 0.999988317489624, 'char_start_index': 0, 'char_end_index': 9},
  {'span': 'Hainanese chicken rice', 'label': 'FOOD', 'score': 0.9894770383834839, 'char_start_index': 66, 'char_end_index': 88},
  {'span': 'laksa', 'label': 'FOOD', 'score': 0.9224908947944641, 'char_start_index': 93, 'char_end_index': 98},
  {'span': 'Malaysia', 'label': 'LOC', 'score': 0.9999839067459106, 'char_start_index': 106, 'char_end_index': 114}]

# missed: nasi lemak as FOOD
# missed: rendang as FOOD
# :(
```

#### Quick test on Chinese
```python
from span_marker import SpanMarkerModel

model = SpanMarkerModel.from_pretrained("lxyuan/span-marker-bert-base-multilingual-cased-multinerd")

# translate to chinese
description = "Singapore is renowned for its hawker centers offering dishes \
like Hainanese chicken rice and laksa, while Malaysia boasts dishes such as \
nasi lemak and rendang, reflecting its rich culinary heritage."

zh_description = "新加坡因其小贩中心提供海南鸡饭和叻沙等菜肴而闻名, 而马来西亚则拥有椰浆饭和仁当等菜肴，反映了其丰富的烹饪传统."

entities = model.predict(zh_description)

entities
>>>
[
  {'span': '新加坡', 'label': 'LOC', 'score': 0.9282007813453674, 'char_start_index': 0, 'char_end_index': 3},
  {'span': '马来西亚', 'label': 'LOC', 'score': 0.7439665794372559, 'char_start_index': 27, 'char_end_index': 31}]

# It only managed to capture two countries: Singapore and Malaysia.
# All other entities were missed out.
