BOND

This repo contains our code and pre-processed distantly/weakly labeled data for paper BOND: BERT-Assisted Open-Domain Name Entity Recognition with Distant Supervision (KDD2020)

BOND

Benchmark

The reuslts (entity-level F1 score) are summarized as follows:

• Full Supervision: Roberta Finetuning/BiLSTM CRF
• Previous SOTA: BiLSTM-CRF/AutoNER/LR-CRF/KALM/CONNET

Data

We release five open-domain distantly/weakly labeled NER datasets here: dataset. For gazetteers information and distant label generation code, please directly email [email protected].

Environment

Python 3.7, Pytorch 1.3, Hugging Face Transformers v2.3.0.

Training & Evaluation

We provides the training scripts for all five open-domain distantly/weakly labeled NER datasets in scripts. E.g., for BOND training and evaluation on CoNLL03

cd BOND
./scripts/conll_self_training.sh

For Stage I training and evaluation on CoNLL03

cd BOND
./scripts/conll_baseline.sh

The test reuslts (entity-level F1 score) are summarized as follows:
