Chinese Fine-Grained Named Entity Recognition Based on BILTAR and GlobalPointer Modules.

The task of fine-grained named entity recognition is to locate entities in text and classify them into predefined fine-grained categories. At present, Chinese fine-grained NER only uses the pretrained language model to encode the characters in the sentence and lacks the ability to extract the deep semantic, sequence, and position information. The sequence annotation method is character-based and lacks the processing of entity boundaries. Fine-grained entity categories have a high degree of similarity, which makes it difficult to distinguish similar categories. To solve the above problems, this paper constructs the BILTAR deep semantic extraction module and adds the GlobalPointer module to improve the accuracy of Chinese fine-grained named entity recognition. The BILTAR module is used to extract deep semantic features from the coding information of pretrained language models and use higher-quality features to improve the model performance. In the GlobalPointer module, the model first adds the rotation position encoding information to the feature vector, using the position information to achieve data enhancement. Finally, the model considers all possible entity boundaries through the GlobalPointer module and calculates the scores for all possible entity boundaries in each category. In this paper, all possible entity boundaries in the text are considered by the above method, and the accuracy of entity recognition is improved. In this paper, the corresponding experiments were carried out on CLUENER 2020 and the micro Chinese fine-grained NER dataset, and the F1 scores of the model in this paper reached 80.848% and 75.751%, respectively. In ablation experiments, the proposed method outperforms the most advanced baseline model and improves the performance of the basic model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
