Transfer Learning with Named Entity Recognition

Transfer Learning with Named Entity Recognition (NER) adapts a large pretrained language model — such as BERT, RoBERTa, or a domain-specific encoder — to the task of identifying and classifying named entities (persons, locations, organizations, dates, etc.) in text. By reusing rich linguistic representations learned from massive corpora, this approach requires only modest labeled NER data while achieving state-of-the-art span detection and classification accuracy.
