BERT-NER Version 2

Use Google's BERT for named entity recognition （CoNLL-2003 as the dataset）.

The original version （see old_version for more detail） contains some hard codes and lacks corresponding annotations,which is inconvenient to understand. So in this updated version,there are some new ideas and tricks （On data Preprocessing and layer design） that can help you quickly implement the fine-tuning model (you just need to try to modify crf_layer or softmax_layer).

Usage:

bash run_ner.sh

What's in run_ner.sh:

python BERT_NER.py\
    --task_name="NER"  \
    --do_lower_case=False \
    --crf=False \
    --do_train=True   \
    --do_eval=True   \
    --do_predict=True \
    --data_dir=data   \
    --vocab_file=cased_L-12_H-768_A-12/vocab.txt  \
    --bert_config_file=cased_L-12_H-768_A-12/bert_config.json \
    --init_checkpoint=cased_L-12_H-768_A-12/bert_model.ckpt   \
    --max_seq_length=128   \
    --train_batch_size=32   \
    --learning_rate=2e-5   \
    --num_train_epochs=3.0   \
    --output_dir=./output/result_dir

perl conlleval.pl -d '\t' < ./output/result_dir/label_test.txt

Notice: cased model was recommened, according to this paper. CoNLL-2003 dataset and perl Script comes from here

RESULTS:(On test set)

Parameter setting:

do_lower_case=False
num_train_epochs=4.0
crf=False

accuracy:  98.15%; precision:  90.61%; recall:  88.85%; FB1:  89.72
              LOC: precision:  91.93%; recall:  91.79%; FB1:  91.86  1387
             MISC: precision:  83.83%; recall:  78.43%; FB1:  81.04  668
              ORG: precision:  87.83%; recall:  85.18%; FB1:  86.48  1191
              PER: precision:  95.19%; recall:  94.83%; FB1:  95.01  1311

Result description:

Here i just use the default paramaters, but as Google's paper says a 0.2% error is reasonable(reported 92.4%). Maybe some tricks need to be added to the above model.
