# CLASSER: Cross-lingual Annotation Projection enhancement through Script Similarity for Fine-grained Named Entity Recognition
**CLASSER** is a framework for cross-lingual annotation projection with script-similarity-based refinement to create high-quality fine-grained named entity recognition datasets. It is part of the [AWED-FiNER](https://github.com/PrachuryyaKaushik/AWED-FiNER) ecosystem.
[**Paper**](https://huggingface.co/papers/2601.10161) | [**GitHub**](https://github.com/PrachuryyaKaushik/AWED-FiNER) | [**Interactive Demo**](https://huggingface.co/spaces/prachuryyaIITG/AWED-FiNER)
Utilizing CLASSER, fine-grained named entity recognition dataset is created in five languages: Assamese (as), Bodo (brx), Marathi (mr), Nepali (ne) and Sanskrit (sa).
## CLASSER Framework Overview
<img src="CLASSER_framework.png" alt="CLASSER Framework Overview" width="450"/>
*Figure: Overview of the CLASSER framework.*
## Sample Usage
You can use the AWED-FiNER agentic tool to interact with expert models trained using this framework. Below is an example using the `smolagents` library:
```python
from smolagents import CodeAgent, HfApiModel
from tool import AWEDFiNERTool
# Initialize the expert tool
ner_tool = AWEDFiNERTool()
# Initialize the agent (using a model of your choice)
agent = CodeAgent(tools=[ner_tool], model=HfApiModel())
# The agent will automatically use AWED-FiNER for specialized NER
# Case: Processing a vulnerable language (Bodo)
agent.run("Recognize the named entities in this Bodo sentence: 'बिथाङा दिल्लियाव थाङो।'")
```
