Demo: How to use in HuggingFace Transformers

Requires transformers: pip install transformers

from transformers import CamembertTokenizer, CamembertForTokenClassification, TokenClassificationPipeline

tokenizer = CamembertTokenizer.from_pretrained('qanastek/pos-french-camembert')
model = CamembertForTokenClassification.from_pretrained('qanastek/pos-french-camembert')
pos = TokenClassificationPipeline(model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)

def make_prediction(sentence):
    labels = [l['entity'] for l in pos(sentence)]
    return list(zip(sentence.split(" "), labels))

res = make_prediction("George Washington est allé à Washington")

Training data

ANTILLES is a part-of-speech tagging corpora based on UD_French-GSD which was originally created in 2015 and is based on the universal dependency treebank v2.0.

Originally, the corpora consists of 400,399 words (16,341 sentences) and had 17 different classes. Now, after applying our tags augmentation we obtain 60 different classes which add linguistic and semantic information such as the gender, number, mood, person, tense or verb form given in the different CoNLL-03 fields from the original corpora.

We based our tags on the level of details given by the LIA_TAGG statistical POS tagger written by Frédéric Béchet in 2001.

The corpora used for this model is available on Github at the CoNLL-U format.

Training data are fed to the model as free language and doesn't pass a normalization phase. Thus, it's made the model case and punctuation sensitive.
