# herbert-base-ner

## Model description

**herbert-base-ner** is a fine-tuned HerBERT model that can be used for **Named Entity Recognition** .
It has been trained to recognize three types of entities: person (PER), location (LOC) and organization (ORG).

Specifically, this model is an [*allegro/herbert-base-cased*](https://huggingface.co/allegro/herbert-base-cased) model that was fine-tuned on the Polish subset of *wikiann* dataset.

### How to use

You can use this model with Transformers *pipeline* for NER.

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification
from transformers import pipeline

model_checkpoint = "pczarnik/herbert-base-ner"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_checkpoint)
model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained(model_checkpoint)

nlp = pipeline("ner", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)
example = "Nazywam się Grzegorz Brzęszczyszczykiewicz, pochodzę "\
    "z Chrząszczyżewoszczyc, pracuję w Łękołodzkim Urzędzie Powiatowym"

ner_results = nlp(example)
print(ner_results)
```
