E-commerce query segmentation model in English.
Model Details
Model Description
This is a token classification model using BERT base uncased as the base model.
The model is fine-tuned on the (QueryNER training dataset)[
https://huggingface.co/datasets/bltlab/queryner].
- Developed by: BLT Lab in collaboration with eBay.

- Model type: Token Classification / Sequence Labeling / Chunking
- Language(s) (NLP): English
- License: CC-BY 4.0
- Finetuned from model: BERT base uncased
Model Sources
Underlying model is based on
BERT base-uncased.

Uses
Direct Use
Intended use is research purposes and e-commerce query segmentation.
Downstream Use
Potential downstream use cases include weighting entity spans, linking to knowledge bases, removing spans as a recovery strategy for null and low recall queries.
Out-of-Scope Use
This model is trained only on the training data of the QueryNER dataset. It may not perform well on other domains without additional training data and further fine-tuning.
Bias, Risks, and Limitations
See paper limitations section.
How to Get Started with the Model
See huggingface tutorials for token classification and access the model using AutoModelForTokenClassification.
Note that we do some post processing to make use of only the first subtoken's tag unlike the inference API.
Training Details
Training Data
See paper for details.
Training Procedure
See paper for details.
Training Hyperparameters
See paper for details.
Evaluation
Evaluation details provided in the paper.
Scoring was done using
SeqScore using the conlleval repair method for invalid label transition sequences.
Testing Data, Factors & Metrics
Testing Data
Factors
Evaluation is reported with micro-F1 at the entity level on the QueryNER test set.
We used conlleval repair method for invalid label transitions.
Metrics
We use micro-F1 at the entity level as this is fairly common practice for NER models.
