class NerDLApproach extends AnnotatorApproach[NerDLModel] with NerApproach[NerDLApproach] with Logging with ParamsAndFeaturesWritable

This Named Entity recognition annotator allows to train generic NER model based on Neural Networks.

The architecture of the neural network is a Char CNNs - BiLSTM - CRF that achieves state-of-the-art in most datasets.

For instantiated/pretrained models, see NerDLModel.

The training data should be a labeled Spark Dataset, in the format of CoNLL 2003 IOB with Annotation type columns. The data should have columns of type DOCUMENT, TOKEN, WORD_EMBEDDINGS and an additional label column of annotator type NAMED_ENTITY. Excluding the label, this can be done with for example

For extended examples of usage, see the Spark NLP Workshop and the NerDLSpec.

Example

import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.base.DocumentAssembler
import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.annotators.Tokenizer
import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.annotators.sbd.pragmatic.SentenceDetector
import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.embeddings.BertEmbeddings
import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.annotators.ner.dl.NerDLApproach
import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.training.CoNLL
import org.apache.spark.ml.Pipeline

// This CoNLL dataset already includes a sentence, token and label
// column with their respective annotator types. If a custom dataset is used,
// these need to be defined with for example:

val documentAssembler = new DocumentAssembler()
  .setInputCol("text")
  .setOutputCol("document")

val sentence = new SentenceDetector()
  .setInputCols("document")
  .setOutputCol("sentence")

val tokenizer = new Tokenizer()
  .setInputCols("sentence")
  .setOutputCol("token")

// Then the training can start
val embeddings = BertEmbeddings.pretrained()
  .setInputCols("sentence", "token")
  .setOutputCol("embeddings")

val nerTagger = new NerDLApproach()
  .setInputCols("sentence", "token", "embeddings")
  .setLabelColumn("label")
  .setOutputCol("ner")
  .setMaxEpochs(1)
  .setRandomSeed(0)
  .setVerbose(0)

val pipeline = new Pipeline().setStages(Array(
  embeddings,
  nerTagger
))

// We use the sentences, tokens and labels from the CoNLL dataset
val conll = CoNLL()
val trainingData = conll.readDataset(spark, "src/test/resources/conll2003/eng.train")

val pipelineModel = pipeline.fit(trainingData)
