The paper introduces a scalable, multi-step framework designed to improve the quality of Named Entity Recognition (NER) annotations, particularly in low-resource languages. It employs a frequency-based iterative approach that combines self‑training with a dual‑threshold mechanism to increase inference confidence. Experiments on various NER datasets show notable performance gains over the original data, and the study also investigates the use of generative Large Language Models for NER tasks.

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to annotate datasets for training smaller, task‑specialized models such as named entity recognition (NER). However, current fine‑tuning processes ignore the annotation noise introduced by LLMs, leading to degraded performance, and existing noise‑robust losses fail to handle the heterogeneous nature of NER noise (e.g., missing mentions vs. type errors). The authors propose error‑type‑aware loss reweighting, which applies separate reweighting rules for different erroneous token types, improving F1 scores by 0.8–2.0 percentage points on average and up to 4.6 points on Wikigold at 24.1% noise.

The paper compares generative and encoder-based neural models for multilingual Named Entity Recognition (NER) across the eleven languages of the Naamapadam benchmark. Five classic model families, four decoder-only large language models fine‑tuned with LoRA and 4‑bit NF4 quantisation, and nine generative models in zero‑to‑5‑shot inference were evaluated under strict CoNLL span‑level metrics. Encoder-based models (mBERT and XLM‑R) achieved substantially higher F1 scores—up to 0.675 on Hindi—than any generative architecture, with gaps of 7.5–40 percentage points; the best few‑shot result reached only 28% of the encoder baseline. The study identifies three language clusters (encoder‑dominant, partial‑coverage, and failure‑zone) and offers deployment guidelines based on transfer learning and low‑resource NLP principles.
The paper introduces a training‑free, alignment‑free method for corporate intelligence that uses deterministic sparse seed vectors to hash word strings into a fixed high‑dimensional basis. By accumulating these seed vectors across sentence contexts, the authors create corpus‑specific semantic signatures that enable rapid document comparison, issuer fingerprinting, vocabulary shift tracking, and thematic sentence extraction—all on standard CPU hardware. Applied to a multi‑year set of SEC filings, the approach reveals distinct semantic profiles for major corporate events such as Boeing’s 737 MAX crisis, Intel’s supply‑chain disruptions, and Bunge’s acquisition of Viterra, with each profile traceable to its source sentences without any domain‑specific training or LLM inference.
