# SpanMarker with microsoft/xtremedistil-l12-h384-uncased on FewNERD, CoNLL2003, and OntoNotes v5

This is a [SpanMarker](https://github.com/tomaarsen/SpanMarkerNER) model trained on the [FewNERD, CoNLL2003, and OntoNotes v5](https://huggingface.co/datasets/tomaarsen/ner-orgs) dataset that can be used for Named Entity Recognition. This SpanMarker model uses [microsoft/xtremedistil-l12-h384-uncased](https://huggingface.co/microsoft/xtremedistil-l12-h384-uncased) as the underlying encoder.
