hmTEAMS
Historic Multilingual and Monolingual TEAMS Models. The following languages are covered:
- English (British Library Corpus - Books)
- German (Europeana Newspaper)
- French (Europeana Newspaper)
- Finnish (Europeana Newspaper, Digilib)
- Swedish (Europeana Newspaper, Digilib)
- Dutch (Delpher Corpus)
- Norwegian (NCC Corpus)
Architecture
We pretrain a "Training ELECTRA Augmented with Multi-word Selection" (TEAMS) model:
Results
We perform experiments on various historic NER datasets, such as HIPE-2022 or ICDAR Europeana. All details incl. hyper-parameters can be found here.
Small Benchmark
We test our pretrained language models on various datasets from HIPE-2020, HIPE-2022 and Europeana. The following table shows an overview of used datasets.
| Language | Dataset | Additional Dataset |
|---|---|---|
| English | AjMC | - |
| German | AjMC | - |
| French | AjMC | ICDAR-Europeana |
| Finnish | NewsEye | - |
| Swedish | NewsEye | - |
| Dutch | ICDAR-Europeana | - |
