🚀 Quick Start
Installation
pip install transformers torch
Basic Usage
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification, pipeline
# Load model and tokenizer
model_name = "asmud/cahya-indonesian-ner-tuned"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained(model_name)
# Create NER pipeline
ner_pipeline = pipeline(
"ner",
model=model,
tokenizer=tokenizer,
aggregation_strategy="simple"
)
# Example usage
text = "Presiden Joko Widodo menghadiri rapat di Gedung DPR pada 15 Januari 2024."
results = ner_pipeline(text)
for entity in results:
print(f"Entity: {entity['word']}")
print(f"Label: {entity['entity_group']}")
print(f"Confidence: {entity['score']:.3f}")
print("---")
Batch Processing
texts = [
"Kementerian Kesehatan mengalokasikan dana sebesar 10 miliar rupiah.",
"Gubernur Jawa Barat meresmikan Bandara Internasional Kertajati.",
"Inflasi bulan ini mencapai 3.2 persen dari target tahunan."
]
# Process multiple texts
for i, text in enumerate(texts):
print(f"Text {i+1}: {text}")
results = ner_pipeline(text)
for entity in results:
print(f" {entity['entity_group']}: {entity['word']} ({entity['score']:.3f})")
print()
Custom Token Classification
import torch
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification
# Load model components
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained(model_name)
def predict_entities(text):
# Tokenize input
inputs = tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt", truncation=True, padding=True)
# Get predictions
with torch.no_grad():
outputs = model(**inputs)
predictions = torch.nn.functional.softmax(outputs.logits, dim=-1)
predicted_labels = torch.argmax(predictions, dim=-1)
# Convert predictions to labels
tokens = tokenizer.convert_ids_to_tokens(inputs["input_ids"][0])
labels = [model.config.id2label[label_id.item()] for label_id in predicted_labels[0]]
# Combine tokens and labels
results = [(token, label) for token, label in zip(tokens, labels) if token not in ['[CLS]', '[SEP]', '[PAD]']]
return results
# Example usage
text = "Bank Indonesia menetapkan suku bunga 5.75 persen."
entities = predict_entities(text)
for token, label in entities:
print(f"{token}: {label}")
