Azerbaijani Named Entity Recognition with XLM-RoBERTa Large

Fine-tuned version of xlm-roberta-large for Named Entity Recognition (NER) on Azerbaijani text. Recognizes 12 entity types including persons, locations, organizations, dates, and more.

Hugging Face: IsmatS/xlm_roberta_large_az_ner

Quick Start

python

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification, pipeline

model_name = "IsmatS/xlm_roberta_large_az_ner"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained(model_name)

ner = pipeline("ner", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer, aggregation_strategy="simple")

text = "Shahla Khuduyeva və Pasha Sığorta şirkəti haqqında məlumat."
entities = ner(text)
for e in entities:
    print(f"{e['entity_group']:15} {e['word']:25} ({e['score']:.2f})")

Output:

PERSON          Shahla Khuduyeva          (0.97)
ORGANISATION    Pasha Sığorta             (0.95)

Usage

Installation

pip install transformers torch

Inference

python

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification, pipeline
import torch

model_name = "IsmatS/xlm_roberta_large_az_ner"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained(model_name)

device = 0 if torch.cuda.is_available() else -1
ner = pipeline("ner", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer,
               aggregation_strategy="simple", device=device)

# Single text
text = "Bakı şəhərində Azərbaycan Respublikasının prezidenti İlham Əliyev."
results = ner(text)
for e in results:
    print(f"[{e['entity_group']}] {e['word']} (score: {e['score']:.3f})")

Batch Inference

python

texts = [
    "Bakı şəhərində İlham Əliyev çıxış etdi.",
    "SOCAR şirkəti 2024-cü ildə rekord gəlir əldə etdi.",
    "Heydər Əliyev Beynəlxalq Hava Limanı yeni terminalı açıldı.",
]

results = ner(texts)
for text, entities in zip(texts, results):
    print(f"\nText: {text}")
    for e in entities:
        print(f"  [{e['entity_group']}] {e['word']}")

Dataset
