# Arabic Named Entity Recognition

This project is made to enrich the Arabic Named Entity Recognition(ANER). Arabic is a tough language to deal with and has alot of difficulties.
We managed to made a model based on Arabert to support 50 entities.

## Paper

Here's the paper that contains all the details for our model, our approach, and the training results

- [ANER Paper](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jJn3iWqOeLzaNvO-6aKfgidzJlWOtvti/view?usp=sharing)

# Usage

The model is available in HuggingFace model page under the name: [boda/ANER](https://huggingface.co/boda/ANER). Checkpoints are available only in PyTorch at the time.

### Use in python:

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("boda/ANER")

model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained("boda/ANER")
```

# Acknowledgments

Thanks for [Arabert](https://github.com/aub-mind/arabert) for providing the Arabic Bert model, which we used as a base model for our work.

We also would like to thank [Prof. Fahd Saleh S Alotaibi](https://fsalotaibi.kau.edu.sa/Pages-Arabic-NE-Corpora.aspx) at Faculty of Computing and Information Technology King Abdulaziz University, for providing the dataset which we used to train our model with.
