for NER on the training data from [GermEval2014](https://sites.google.com/site/germeval2014ner).

## Model results
The results on the test data from GermEval2014 are (entities only): 

| Precision | Recall | F1-Score |
|----------:|-------:|---------:|
|   0.817   |  0.842 |    0.829 |

## How to use

>>> from transformers import pipeline

>>> classifier = pipeline('ner', model="fhswf/bert_de_ner")
>>> classifier('Von der Organisation „medico international“ hieß es, die EU entziehe sich seit vielen Jahren der Verantwortung für die Menschen an ihren Außengrenzen.')
