In this work, we propose a two-stage method for named entity recognition (NER), especially for nested NER. We borrowed the idea from the two-stage Object Detection in computer vision and the way how they construct the loss function. First,…

Named entity recognition is one of the core tasks in NLP. Although many improvements have been made on this task during the last years, the state-of-the-art systems do not explicitly take into account the recursive nature of language.…

To tackle Named Entity Recognition (NER) tasks, supervised methods need to obtain sufficient cleanly annotated data, which is labor and time consuming. On the contrary, distantly supervised methods acquire automatically annotated data using…

While multilingual language models promise to bring the benefits of LLMs to speakers of many languages, gold-standard evaluation benchmarks in most languages to interrogate these assumptions remain scarce. The Universal NER project, now…
