Transformers can identify nested and overlapping entities that traditional models often miss due to global context awareness.

Self-attention mechanisms allow Transformers to consider the entire sentence when assigning labels to each token. Models like BERT for NER leverage contextual embeddings to recognize proper nouns, dates, and other entities, outperforming previous sequence models that relied on local context or handcrafted features.
