# SpanMarker for Named Entity Recognition
This is a [SpanMarker](https://github.com/tomaarsen/SpanMarkerNER) model that can be used for Named Entity Recognition. In particular, this SpanMarker model uses [xlm-roberta-large](https://huggingface.co/xlm-roberta-large) as the underlying encoder. See [train.py](train.py) for the training script.
Note that this model was trained with document-level context, i.e. it will primarily perform well when provided with enough context. It is recommended to call `model.predict` with a 🤗 Dataset with `tokens`, `document_id` and `sentence_id` columns.
See the [documentation](https://tomaarsen.github.io/SpanMarkerNER/api/span_marker.modeling.html#span_marker.modeling.SpanMarkerModel.predict) of the `model.predict` method for more information.
## Usage
To use this model for inference, first install the `span_marker` library:
```bash
pip install span_marker
```
You can then run inference with this model like so:
```python
from span_marker import SpanMarkerModel
# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SpanMarkerModel.from_pretrained("tomaarsen/span-marker-xlm-roberta-large-conll03-doc-context")
# Run inference
entities = model.predict("Amelia Earhart flew her single engine Lockheed Vega 5B across the Atlantic to Paris.")
```
See the [SpanMarker](https://github.com/tomaarsen/SpanMarkerNER) repository for documentation and additional information on this library.
