# Vietnam Tourism Named Entity Recognition
We fine-tuned BERT to train Vietnam tourism dataset for a question answering system. The model was called NER2QUES because it detected tourism NER in a sentence. From that, the system generated questions corresponding to NER types.
# How to use
You can use the model directly with a pipeline
    from simpletransformers.ner import NERModel, NERArgs
  
    line = "King Garden is located in Thanh Thuy, Phu Tho"
