@honnibal Is there any papers/blog that explains the algorithms used in spacy. Especially the one used for NER recognizer. Thanks

I'm afraid we haven't really documented this properly yet, sorry. You can go through the source code, ofcourse, and there's also this video by Matt on the NER algorithm specifically: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqDHBH9IjRU.

You might be interested to know that Matt's also been experimenting with a new NER model designed to work with transformers specifically, which has been achieving promising results. This is coupled to a recent complete rewrite of thinc and of spacy-transformers, which will all come together when we launch spaCy v.3.

Hope that helps!

FYI - please avoid pinging maintainers directly, as it makes our Github mentions more difficult to use.
