• Dropout: 0.35

Custom NER Labels

1. VERSION_RANGE: Semantic version strings or version constraints (e.g., "1.2.3", "< 2.0.0")
2. API_SYMBOL: Method, class, or function names (e.g., "queryset.filter()", "X.509")
3. BREAKING_CHANGE: References to incompatible API changes or deprecations
4. FIX_ACTION: Specific remediation steps or upgrade instructions

Usage

Installation

1. Extract the zip archive to your project directory
2. Load the model using spaCy:
   python

   1import spacy 2nlp = spacy.load("./spacy-nvd-ner-v1")

Architecture

• Input Layer: Vectorized token representations
• Hidden Layer: Feed-forward network with 0.35 dropout
• Output Layer: 4-class NER tagger (softmax)

Training Configuration

• Optimizer: SGD
• Batch Size Range: 8-32 (compounding)
• Training Data: Real NVD descriptions auto-annotated with GLiNER teacher model
• Constraint: Exactly 50-example held-out test set (Master Document requirement)

Known Limitations

• Model trained on NVD descriptions only; may not generalize to other security domains
• Entity boundaries may not align perfectly with whitespace
• Requires English text input
