We address the scarcity of datasets specifically tailored for legal NER in the Russian language and investigate the generalization capabilities of models towards unseen named entities. A rule-based program developed by legal experts at Tag-Consulting Company was employed to automatically annotate legal texts and create the RuLegalNER dataset. Part of the named entities only exists in the development and test splits, and they are unseen in the training set. RuBERT was utilized as the base architecture for experimental evaluation. Two different architectural extensions were explored: RuBERT with CRF and RuBERT with adapters. These architectures were used to train and evaluate NER models on the RuLegalNER dataset. Utilize RuLegalNER to train and evaluate legal NER models, enhancing performance in the legal domain and studying generalization on unseen entities. A published version of RuLegalNER is presented with detailed statistics and demonstration of the usefulness of RuLegalNER by evaluating modern architectures.

The individualization of information processes based on artificial intelligence (AI), especially in the context of industrial tasks, requires new, hybrid approaches to process modeling that take into account the novel methods and technologies both in the field of semantic representation of knowledge and machine learning. The combination of both AI techniques imposes several requirements and restrictions on the types of data and object properties and the structure of ontologies for data and knowledge representation about processes. The conceptual reference model for effective individualization of information processes (IIP CRM) proposed in this work considers these requirements and restrictions. This model is based on such well-known standard upper ontologies as BFO, GFO and MASON. Evaluation of the proposed model is done on a practical use case in the field of precise agriculture where IoT-enabled processes are widely used. It is shown that IIP CRM allows the construction of a knowledge graph about processes that are surrounded by unstructured data in soft and heterogeneous domains. CRM also provides the ability to answer specific questions in the domain using queries written with the CRM vocabulary, which makes it easier to develop applications based on knowledge graphs.
