Gretel GLiNER: Fine-Tuned Models for PII/PHI Detection

This Gretel GLiNER model is a fine-tuned version of the GLiNER base model knowledgator/gliner-bi-base-v1.0, specifically trained for the detection of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Protected Health Information (PHI). Gretel GLiNER helps to provide privacy-compliant entity recognition across various industries and document types. For more information about the base GLiNER model, including its architecture and general capabilities, please refer to the GLiNER Model Card.

The model was fine-tuned on the gretelai/gretel-pii-masking-en-v1 dataset, which provides a rich and diverse collection of synthetic document snippets containing PII and PHI entities.

1. Training: Utilized the training split of the synthetic dataset.
2. Validation: Monitored performance using the validation set to adjust training parameters.
3. Evaluation: Assessed final performance on the test set using PII/PHI entity annotations as ground truth.

For detailed statistics on the dataset, including domain and entity type distributions, visit the dataset documentation on Hugging Face.

Model Performance

All fine-tuned Gretel GLiNER models demonstrate substantial improvements over their base counterparts in accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score:

Model	Accuracy	Precision	Recall	F1 Score
gretelai/gretel-gliner-bi-small-v1.0	0.89	0.98	0.91	0.94
gretelai/gretel-gliner-bi-base-v1.0	0.91	0.98	0.92	0.95
gretelai/gretel-gliner-bi-large-v1.0	0.91	0.99	0.93	0.95

Installation & Usage

Ensure you have Python installed. Then, install or update the gliner package:

pip install gliner -U

Load the fine-tuned Gretel GLiNER model using the GLiNER class and the from_pretrained method. Below is an example using the gretelai/gretel-gliner-bi-base-v1.0 model for PII/PHI detection:

from gliner import GLiNER

# Load the fine-tuned GLiNER model
model = GLiNER.from_pretrained("gretelai/gretel-gliner-bi-base-v1.0")

# Sample text containing PII/PHI entities
text = """
