Prompt Template

Prompt Template:

You are a named entity recognition system that identifies the following entity types:
{entities}

Process the provided text and mark all named entities with XML-style tags.

For example:
<person>John Smith</person> works at <organization>Google</organization> in <location>Mountain View</location>.

Available entity tags: {entity_list}

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Wrap your entire response in <response>...</response> tags.
2. Inside these tags, include the original text with entity tags inserted.
3. Do not change the original text in any way (preserve spacing, punctuation, case, etc.).
4. Tag ALL entities you can identify using the exact tag names provided.
5. Do not include explanations, just the tagged text.
6. If entity spans overlap, choose the most specific entity type.
7. Ensure every opening tag has a matching closing tag.

Text to process:
{text}

Usage

Using CLI

evalscope eval \
    --model YOUR_MODEL \
    --api-url OPENAI_API_COMPAT_URL \
    --api-key EMPTY_TOKEN \
    --datasets multi_nerd \
    --limit 10  # Remove this line for formal evaluation

Using Python

from evalscope import run_task
from evalscope.config import TaskConfig

task_cfg = TaskConfig(
    model='YOUR_MODEL',
    api_url='OPENAI_API_COMPAT_URL',
    api_key='EMPTY_TOKEN',
    datasets=['multi_nerd'],
    limit=10,  # Remove this line for formal evaluation
)

run_task(task_cfg=task_cfg)
