# Software Entity Recognition with Noise-robust Learning
We train a BERT model for the task software entity recognition (SER).
The training data leverages WikiSER, a corpus of 1.7M sentences extracted from Wikipedia.
The model uses _self-regularization_ during the finetuning process, allowing it to be robust to texts in the software domain, including misannotations, different naming conventions, and others.
The model recognizes 12 fine-grained named entities: `Algorithm`, `Application`, `Architecture`, `Data_Structure`, `Device`, `Error_Name`, `General_Concept`, `Language`,
`Library`, `License`, `Operating_System`, and `Protocol`.
| Type | Examples |
|------------------|-------------------------------------------------------|
| Algorithm | Auction algorithm, Collaborative filtering |
| Application | Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Excel |
| Architecture | Graphics processing unit, Wishbone |
| Data_Structure | Array, Hash table, mXOR linked list |
| Device | Samsung Gear S2, iPad, Intel T5300 |
| Error Name | Buffer overflow, Memory leak |
| General_Concept | Memory management, Nouvelle AI |
| Language | C++, Java, Python, Rust |
| Library | Beautiful Soup, FastAPI |
| License | Cryptix General License, MIT License |
| Operating_System | Linux, Ubuntu, Red Hat OS, MorphOS |
| Protocol | TLS, FTPS, HTTP 404 |

Code: https://github.com/taidnguyen/software_entity_recognition
Finetuned from model: `bert-base-cased`
Checkpoint for large version: https://huggingface.co/taidng/wikiser-bert-large
## How to use
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("taidng/wikiser-bert-base")
model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained("taidng/wikiser-bert-base")
nlp = pipeline("ner", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)
example = "Windows XP was originally bundled with Internet Explorer 6."
ner_results = nlp(example)
print(ner_results)
```
