# Named Entity Recognition Model for Telugu

#### How to use
Use the below script from your python terminal as the web interface for inference has few encoding issues for Telugu

PS: If you find my model useful, I would appreciate a note from you as it would encourage me to continue improving it and also add new models.

```python
from simpletransformers.ner import NERModel
model = NERModel('bert',
                 'kuppuluri/telugu_bertu_ner',
                 labels=[
                     'B-PERSON', 'I-ORG', 'B-ORG', 'I-LOC', 'B-MISC',
                     'I-MISC', 'I-PERSON', 'B-LOC', 'O'
                 ],
                 use_cuda=False,
                 args={"use_multiprocessing": False})

text = "విరాట్ కోహ్లీ కూడా అదే నిర్లక్ష్యాన్ని ప్రదర్శించి కేవలం ఒక పరుగుకే రనౌటై పెవిలియన్ చేరాడు ."
results = model.predict([text])
```
