# Amharic Named Entity Recognition Dataset
This dataset can be used to train models for Named Entity Recognition.
### Dataset Source
https://github.com/uhh-lt/ethiopicmodels/blob/master/am/data/NER/train.txt
### Finetuned Models
The following transformer models were finetuned using this dataset. The reported precision, recall, and f1 metrics are macro averages.
|Model|Size (# params)| Precision | Recall | F1 |
| --- | ------------- | --------- |------- | -- |
|bert-medium-amharic|40.5M|0.64|0.73|0.68|
|bert-small-amharic|27.8M|0.64|0.72|0.68|
|bert-mini-amharic|10.7M|0.60|0.67|0.64|
|bert-tiny-amharic|4.18M|0.50|0.59|0.54|
|xlm-roberta-base|279M|0.69|0.79|0.73|
|am-roberta|443M|0.67|0.72|0.69|
#### Code
In this repository, you can find notebooks for finetuning each of the above models using this dataset
