You can find more information here:

Hugging Face model https://huggingface.co/Protegrity/protegrity-pii

Hugging Face dataset https://huggingface.co/datasets/Protegrity/pii-scope

I've always believed that smaller, specialized models are the future. Of course, it's all about the training data -- and that's true of this model too.
