Jobbert Base Cased

🚀 JobBERT

JobBERT is a model designed for extracting skills from job postings. It offers valuable insights into labor - market dynamics by leveraging advanced language - processing techniques.

This is the JobBERT model from:

Mike Zhang, Kristian Nørgaard Jensen, Sif Dam Sonniks, and Barbara Plank. SkillSpan: Hard and Soft Skill Extraction from Job Postings. Proceedings of the 2022 Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics: Human Language Technologies.

This model is continuously pre - trained from a bert - base - cased checkpoint on ~3.2M sentences from job postings. More information can be found in the paper.

    abstract = "Skill Extraction (SE) is an important and widely-studied task useful to gain insights into labor market dynamics. However, there is a lacuna of datasets and annotation guidelines; available datasets are few and contain crowd-sourced labels on the span-level or labels from a predefined skill inventory. To address this gap, we introduce SKILLSPAN, a novel SE dataset consisting of 14.5K sentences and over 12.5K annotated spans. We release its respective guidelines created over three different sources annotated for hard and soft skills by domain experts. We introduce a BERT baseline (Devlin et al., 2019). To improve upon this baseline, we experiment with language models that are optimized for long spans (Joshi et al., 2020; Beltagy et al., 2020), continuous pre-training on the job posting domain (Han and Eisenstein, 2019; Gururangan et al., 2020), and multi-task learning (Caruana, 1997). Our results show that the domain-adapted models significantly outperform their non-adapted counterparts, and single-task outperforms multi-task learning.",
