Known weaknesses

Each one links to the public issue, changelog or docs page it came from, where we have one.

1. 01

   Limited support for languages other than English

   Model training and validation primarily focused on English pharmaceutical and clinical texts, limiting its effectiveness in non-English environments.

2. 02

   Performance degradation with non-standard or unstructured text inputs

   The model's high precision is observed under controlled conditions; real-world data with variations in formatting and structure can lead to reduced accuracy.

3. 03

   Resource-intensive for large-scale deployments

   Model size (434M) requires significant computational resources, making it less suitable for environments with limited GPU/CPU power or memory constraints.

4. 04

   Dependency on Hugging Face ecosystem for deployment and maintenance

   Integration with other NLP frameworks is not straightforward due to the model's reliance on specific libraries and tools from the Hugging Face suite, leading to potential vendor lock-in.
