Model Card for GalBERT-en for Semantic Role Labeling (cased)
This model is fine-tuned on a version of multilingual BERT which is pre-trained on the SRL task for English, and is one of 24 models introduced as part of this project. Prior to this work, there were no published Galician datasets or models for SRL.
Model Details
Model Description
GalBERT-en for Semantic Role Labeling (SRL) is a transformers model, leveraging mBERT's extensive pretraining on 104 languages to achieve better SRL predictions for low-resource Galician. This model is additionally pre-trained on the SRL task for English. This model is cased: it makes a difference between english and English. It was fine-tuned on Galician with the following objectives:
- Identify up to 13 verbal roots within a sentence.
- Identify available arguments for each verbal root. Due to scarcity of data, this model focused solely on the identification of arguments 0, 1, and 2.
Labels are formatted as: r#:tag, where r# links the token to a specific verbal root of index #, and tag identifies the token as the verbal root (root) or an individual argument (arg0/arg1/arg2)
- Developed by: Micaella Bruton
- Model type: Transformers
- Language(s) (NLP): Galician (gl), English (en)
- License: Apache 2.0
- Finetuned from model: English pre-trained multilingual BERT
Model Sources [optional]
- Repository: GalicianSRL
- Paper: To be updated
Uses
This model is intended to be used to develop and improve natural language processing tools for Galician.
Bias, Risks, and Limitations
Galician is a low-resource language which prior to this project lacked a semantic role labeling dataset. As such, the dataset used to train this model is extrememly limited and could benefit from the inclusion of additional sentences and manual validation by native speakers.
Training Details
Training Data
This model was pre-trained on the OntoNotes 5.0 English SRL corpus. This model was fine-tuned on the "train" portion of the GalicianSRL Dataset produced as part of this same project.
Training Hyperparameters
- Learning Rate: 2e-5
- Batch Size: 16
- Weight Decay: 0.01
- Early Stopping: 10 epochs
Evaluation
Testing Data
This model was tested on the "test" portion of the GalicianSRL Dataset produced as part of this same project.
Metrics
seqeval is a Python framework for sequence labeling evaluation. It can evaluate the performance of chunking tasks such as named-entity recognition, part-of-speech tagging, and semantic role labeling. It supplies scoring both overall and per label type.
Overall:
accuracy: the average accuracy, on a scale between 0.0 and 1.0.precision: the average precision, on a scale between 0.0 and 1.0.recall: the average recall, on a scale between 0.0 and 1.0.f1: the average F1 score, which is the harmonic mean of the precision and recall. It also has a scale of 0.0 to 1.0.
Per label type:
precision: the average precision, on a scale between 0.0 and 1.0.recall: the average recall, on a scale between 0.0 and 1.0.f1: the average F1 score, on a scale between 0.0 and 1.0.
