NuMind Releases Three SOTA NER Models that Outperform Similar-Sized Foundation Models in the Few-shot Regime and Competing with Much Larger LLMs

NuMind Releases Three SOTA NER Models that Outperform Similar-Sized Foundation Models in the Few-shot Regime and Competing with Much Larger LLMs

Practical AI Solutions for Named Entity Recognition (NER)

Introduction

Named Entity Recognition (NER) is vital in natural language processing, with applications in various fields such as medical coding, financial analysis, and legal document parsing. Custom models are typically created using transformer encoders pre-trained on self-supervised tasks like masked language modeling (MLM).

NuMind Approach

The NuMind team introduces an innovative approach that utilizes large language models (LLMs) to reduce human annotations for custom model creation. They propose using LLMs to annotate a diverse, multi-domain dataset covering various NER problems. Subsequently, a smaller foundation model like BERT is further pre-trained on this annotated dataset, which can then be fine-tuned for any downstream NER task.

NuMind’s NER Models

NuMind has introduced three NER models with distinct features and applications:

  • NuNER Zero: A compact zero-shot NER model suitable for moderate token size.
  • NuNER Zero 4K: A variation of NuNER that performs better in scenarios where context size matters.
  • NuNER Zero-span: The span-prediction version of NuNER Zero, showing slightly better performance for entities under 12 tokens.

Value Proposition

In conclusion, NER is crucial in natural language processing, and the NuMind team’s approach and NER models offer practical solutions to streamline custom model creation and address the challenges posed by large language models.
