Towards Robust Named Entity Recognition for Historic German

Based on our paper we release a new model trained on the ONB dataset.

Note: We use BPEmbeddings instead of the combination of Wikipedia, Common Crawl and character embeddings (as used in the paper), so save space and training/inferencing time.
