NLP Analysis in the Intersection of RLHF and NER

Named Entity Recognition (NER) plays a crucial role in Natural Language Processing(NLP) by identifying and classifying named entities such as persons, organizations, and locations within the textual data. Traditional NER mod- els firstly depend on supervised learning techniques and manually annotated datasets.

To address these challenges, this research explores a novel approach by integrating reinforcement learning with human feedback(RLHF) into the NER framework. By using an actor-critic Re- inforcement Learning paradigm, the model continuously improves recognition through iterative feedback and reward-based mechanisms. The proposed system employs GloVe embeddings to capture contextual word representations, look after a semantic understanding of textual data. A bidirectional long-shot-term memory network (BiLSTM) is used as a feature extractor to encode sequential dependencies, followed by an actor network responsible for predicting labels and a critic network evaluating the predicted results. The model interacts with an environment where tokenized words are processed sequentially and rewards are assigned based on correct classifications. A reinforcement learning policy updates the model parameters based on observed rewards, allowed dynamic adaptation, and improved perfor- mance over multiple episodes.

Abstract

Named Entity Recognition (NER) plays a crucial role in Natural Language Processing(NLP) by identifying and classifying named entities such as persons, organizations, and locations within the textual data. Traditional NER mod- els firstly depend on supervised learning techniques and manually annotated datasets. However, such a method for some times struggles with generalization, domain adaptation, and handling noisy data. To address these challenges, this research explores a novel approach by integrating reinforcement learning with human feedback(RLHF) into the NER framework. By using an actor-critic Re- inforcement Learning paradigm, the model continuously improves recognition through iterative feedback and reward-based mechanisms. The proposed system employs GloVe embeddings to capture contextual word representations, look after a semantic understanding of textual data. A bidirectional long-shot-term memory network (BiLSTM) is used as a feature extractor to encode sequential dependencies, followed by an actor network responsible for predicting labels and a critic network evaluating the predicted results. The model interacts with an environment where tokenized words are processed sequentially and rewards are assigned based on correct classifications. A reinforcement learning policy updates the model parameters based on observed rewards, allowed dynamic adaptation, and improved perfor- mance over multiple episodes. To evaluate the effectiveness of our approach, we train and test the model on a custom data set extracted from textual sources. Performance is assessed using accuracy, precision, and the F-1 score to ensure a comprehensive evalu- ation. Experimental results demonstrate that the RLHF- based NER system outperforms conventional supervised learning methods by reducing overfitting, adapting to unseen entities, and leveraging human-in-the-loop feedback to refine predictions. The findings suggest that reinforcement learning can enhance the robustness and adaptability of NEW models, making them more suitable for real-world applications such as information extraction, knowledge graph con- struction, and automated document processing. Research contributes to the evolving landscapes pf interactive NLP sys- tems by combining deep learning with reinforcement learning, paving the way for more adaptive and human-aligned text processing solutions. Future work aims to improve reward mechanisms, integrate external knowledge sources for improved entity disambiguation, and explore the model’s applicability across multiple languages and specialized domains.
