# Fine-tuned Flair Model on TopRes19th English NER Dataset (HIPE-2022)

This Flair model was fine-tuned on the
[TopRes19th English](https://github.com/hipe-eval/HIPE-2022-data/blob/main/documentation/README-topres19th.md)
NER Dataset using hmBERT Tiny as backbone LM.

The TopRes19th dataset consists of NE-annotated historical English newspaper articles from 19C.

The following NEs were annotated: `BUILDING`, `LOC` and `STREET`.

# Results

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

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

And report micro F1-score on development set:

| Configuration     | Seed 1          | Seed 2       | Seed 3       | Seed 4       | Seed 5       | Average         |
|-------------------|-----------------|--------------|--------------|--------------|--------------|-----------------|
| `bs4-e10-lr5e-05` | [**0.6681**][1] | [0.5754][2]  | [0.628][3]   | [0.6565][4]  | [0.658][5]   | 0.6372 ± 0.0376 |
| `bs8-e10-lr5e-05` | [0.6491][6]     | [0.5812][7]  | [0.565][8]   | [0.587][9]   | [0.5938][10] | 0.5952 ± 0.0319 |
| `bs4-e10-lr3e-05` | [0.6154][11]    | [0.5782][12] | [0.5519][13] | [0.5929][14] | [0.5931][15] | 0.5863 ± 0.0234 |
| `bs8-e10-lr3e-05` | [0.5978][16]    | [0.5489][17] | [0.528][18]  | [0.5483][19] | [0.5754][20] | 0.5597 ± 0.0272 |
