Nested-NER

Nested-NER is an implementation of [A Neural Layered Model for Nested Named Entity Recognition] (http://aclweb.org/anthology/N18-1131).

Requirements

  • Ubuntu 16.04
  • chainer 3.3.0
  • python 3.5.2
  • numpy 1.14.1
  • cupy 2.4.0
  • cuda 9.1
  • cudnn 7.0

Data format

Each line has multiple columns separated by a tab key. Each line contains

word	label1	label2	label3	...	labelN

The number of labels (N) for each word is determined by the maximum nested level in the data set. N=maximum nested level + 1 Each sentence is separated by an empty line. For example, for these two sentences, John killed Mary's husband. He was arrested last night , they contain four entities: John (PER), Mary(PER), Mary's husband(PER),He (PER). The format for these two sentences is listed as following:

John    B-PER   O   O
killed  O   O   O
Mary    B-PER   B-PER   O
's  O   I-PER   O
husband O   I-PER   O
.   O   O   O

He    B-PER   O   O
was  O   O   O
arrested  O   O   O
last  O   O   O
night  O   O   O
.  O   O   O
