title: EntityRecognizer
|
|
tag: class
|
|
source: spacy/pipeline/pipes.pyx
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
This class is a subclass of `Pipe` and follows the same API. The pipeline
|
|
component is available in the [processing pipeline](/usage/processing-pipelines)
|
|
via the ID `"ner"`.
|
|
|
|
## EntityRecognizer.Model {#model tag="classmethod"}
|
|
|
|
Initialize a model for the pipe. The model should implement the
|
|
`thinc.neural.Model` API. Wrappers are under development for most major machine
|
|
learning libraries.
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| ----------- | ------ | ------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `**kwargs` | - | Parameters for initializing the model |
|
|
| **RETURNS** | object | The initialized model. |
|
|
|
|
## EntityRecognizer.\_\_init\_\_ {#init tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Create a new pipeline instance. In your application, you would normally use a
|
|
shortcut for this and instantiate the component using its string name and
|
|
[`nlp.create_pipe`](/api/language#create_pipe).
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> # Construction via create_pipe
|
|
> ner = nlp.create_pipe("ner")
|
|
>
|
|
> # Construction from class
|
|
> from spacy.pipeline import EntityRecognizer
|
|
> ner = EntityRecognizer(nlp.vocab)
|
|
> ner.from_disk("/path/to/model")
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| ----------- | ----------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `vocab` | `Vocab` | The shared vocabulary. |
|
|
| `model` | `thinc.neural.Model` / `True` | The model powering the pipeline component. If no model is supplied, the model is created when you call `begin_training`, `from_disk` or `from_bytes`. |
|
|
| `**cfg` | - | Configuration parameters. |
|
|
| **RETURNS** | `EntityRecognizer` | The newly constructed object. |
|
|
|
|
## EntityRecognizer.\_\_call\_\_ {#call tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Apply the pipe to one document. The document is modified in place, and returned.
|
|
This usually happens under the hood when the `nlp` object is called on a text
|
|
and all pipeline components are applied to the `Doc` in order. Both
|
|
[`__call__`](/api/entityrecognizer#call) and
|
|
[`pipe`](/api/entityrecognizer#pipe) delegate to the
|
|
[`predict`](/api/entityrecognizer#predict) and
|
|
[`set_annotations`](/api/entityrecognizer#set_annotations) methods.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> ner = EntityRecognizer(nlp.vocab)
|
|
> doc = nlp("This is a sentence.")
|
|
> # This usually happens under the hood
|
|
> processed = ner(doc)
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| ----------- | ----- | ------------------------ |
|
|
| `doc` | `Doc` | The document to process. |
|
|
| **RETURNS** | `Doc` | The processed document. |
|
|
|
|
## EntityRecognizer.pipe {#pipe tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Apply the pipe to a stream of documents. This usually happens under the hood
|
|
when the `nlp` object is called on a text and all pipeline components are
|
|
applied to the `Doc` in order. Both [`__call__`](/api/entityrecognizer#call) and
|
|
[`pipe`](/api/entityrecognizer#pipe) delegate to the
|
|
[`predict`](/api/entityrecognizer#predict) and
|
|
[`set_annotations`](/api/entityrecognizer#set_annotations) methods.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example

|
|
> pass
