## Model information:
distilibert-base-uncased model finetuned using the conll2003 dataset from the datasets library. 

## Intended uses & limitations
This model is intended to be used for named entity recoginition tasks. The model will identify entities of persons, locations, organisations, and miscellaneous.  The model will predict lables based upon the CoNLL-2003 dataset.

## How to use 
Load the model from the library using the following checkpoints:
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("sarahmiller137/distilbert-base-uncased-ft-conll2003")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("sarahmiller137/distilbert-base-uncased-ft-conll2003")
```
