Greek Named Entity Model finetuned on the elNER Dataset

This Greek NER model was fine-tuned by researchers at the Institute for Language and Speech Processing/Athena RC. The model was finetuned on the elNER-18 dataset using the nlpaueb/bert-base-greek-uncased-v1 as backbone LM.

Dataset

The elNER-18 dataset consists of 21K sentences, 623K tokens and 94K annotated named entities for 18 NE classes.

The following 18 named entities are annotated in the train partition:
