Building a Named Entity Recognition model using a BiLSTM-CRF network

Domino Data Lab

statistical model-based techniques – Using Machine Learning we can streamline and simplify the process of building NER models, because this approach does not need a predefined exhaustive set of naming rules. The process of statistical learning can automatically extract said rules from a training dataset. The CRF model.
