# Fine-tuned Flair Model on French ICDAR-Europeana NER Dataset

This Flair model was fine-tuned on the
[French ICDAR-Europeana](https://github.com/stefan-it/historic-domain-adaptation-icdar)
NER Dataset using hmTEAMS as backbone LM.

The ICDAR-Europeana NER Dataset is a preprocessed variant of the
[Europeana NER Corpora](https://github.com/EuropeanaNewspapers/ner-corpora) for Dutch and French.

The following NEs were annotated: `PER`, `LOC` and `ORG`.

# Results

We performed a hyper-parameter search over the following parameters with 5 different seeds per configuration:

* Batch Sizes: `[8, 4]`
* Learning Rates: `[3e-05, 5e-05]`

And report micro F1-score on development set:

| Configuration   | Run 1        | Run 2        | Run 3        | Run 4        | Run 5        | Avg.         |
|-----------------|--------------|--------------|--------------|--------------|--------------|--------------|

| bs8-e10-lr3e-05 | [0.7773][6]  | [0.7676][7]  | [0.7733][8]  | [0.7675][9]  | [0.7726][10] | 77.17 ± 0.37 |
| bs8-e10-lr5e-05 | [0.7778][11] | [0.783][12]  | [0.7654][13] | [0.767][14]  | [0.7644][15] | 77.15 ± 0.75 |
| bs4-e10-lr5e-05 | [0.7684][16] | [0.7582][17] | [0.7626][18] | [0.7779][19] | [0.7693][20] | 76.73 ± 0.67 |

The [training log](training.log) and TensorBoard logs (only for hmByT5 and hmTEAMS based models) are also uploaded to the model hub.
