Named Entity Recognition using Convolutional Neural Network

Overview

The small project using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to solve the Named Entity Recognition (NER) problem.

Requirements

• Python 2.7.12 or higher
• Keras: Using Tensorflow backend
• word2vec: Python wrapper for Tensorflow's word2vec algorithm
  For more requirement packages, see the file requirements.txt or using python pip

pip install -r requirements.txt

Dataset Information

The data was used to evaluate the method is CONLL the CONLL-2003 NER Shared Task dataset (Tjong Kim Sang and De Meulder, 2003). Data files can be downloaded at here.
