This model is a BERT-based Location Mention Recognition model that is adopted from the TLLMR4CM GitHub. The model is trained using Hurricane Dorian 2019 event (training, development, and test data are used for training) from IDRISI-R dataset under the Type-based LMR mode and using the random version of the data. You can download this data in BILOU format from here.

• Different variants of the model are available through HuggingFace:

  • rsuwaileh/IDRISI-LMR-HD-TB-partition
  • rsuwaileh/IDRISI-LMR-HD-TL
  • rsuwaileh/IDRISI-LMR-HD-TL-partition

• Larger models are available at TLLMR4CM GitHub.

• Models trained on the entire IDRISI-R dataset:

  • rsuwaileh/IDRISI-LMR-EN-random-typeless
  • rsuwaileh/IDRISI-LMR-EN-random-typebased
  • rsuwaileh/IDRISI-LMR-EN-timebased-typeless
  • rsuwaileh/IDRISI-LMR-EN-timebased-typebased
