SLIM-NER
slim-ner is part of the SLIM ("Structured Language Instruction Model") model series, consisting of 1b parameter small, specialized decoder-based models, fine-tuned for function-calling.
slim-ner has been fine-tuned for named entity extraction function calls, generating output consisting of a python dictionary corresponding to specified keys, e.g.:
{"people": ["..."], "organization":["..."], "location": ["..."]}
SLIM models are designed to generate structured outputs that can be used programmatically as part of a multi-step, multi-model LLM-based automation workflow.
SLIM models can be used 'out of the box' for rapid prototyping in most general purpose use cases, and are designed to serve as a solid base that can be easily fine-tuned and adapted for specialized production use cases.
Each slim model has a 'quantized tool' version, e.g., 'slim-ner-tool'.
Prompt format:
function = "classify"
params = "people, organization, location"
prompt = "<human> " + {text} + "\n" +
"<{function}> " + {params} + "</{function}>" + "\n<bot>:"

Using as Function Call in LLMWare
from llmware.models import ModelCatalog
slim_model = ModelCatalog().load_model("llmware/slim-ner")
response = slim_model.function_call(text,params=["people","organization","location"], function="classify")
print("llmware - llm_response: ", response)
