# Multi-lingual BERT Bengali Name Entity Recognition
`mBERT-Bengali-NER` is a transformer-based Bengali NER model build with [bert-base-multilingual-uncased](https://huggingface.co/bert-base-multilingual-uncased) model and [Wikiann](https://huggingface.co/datasets/wikiann) Datasets.

## How to Use

```py
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification
from transformers import pipeline

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("sagorsarker/mbert-bengali-ner")
model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained("sagorsarker/mbert-bengali-ner")

nlp = pipeline("ner", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer, grouped_entities=True)
example = "আমি জাহিদ এবং আমি ঢাকায় বাস করি।"

ner_results = nlp(example)
print(ner_results)
```
