AI-102 Practice Question: Implement natural language processing solutions
A legal firm uses Azure AI Language's custom NER to extract party names, dates, and clauses from contracts. The model performs well on English contracts but poorly on French contracts. The firm wants to improve performance without retraining from scratch. What is the most efficient approach?
⚠ Common exam trap
A common pitfall in the AI-102 exam is assuming you must train separate models for each language or rely on translation, when Azure AI Language's built-in multilingual support is the correct and efficient path.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Use the multilingual option in Azure AI Language custom NER to extend the existing project to include French.
Azure AI Language's custom NER supports a multilingual option that allows you to extend an existing project to include additional languages without retraining from scratch. By enabling this option and adding French labeled data, the model learns to recognize entities in French while retaining its English performance, making it the most efficient approach.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Create a separate custom NER project for French and train from scratch using French contracts.
Why it's wrong here
Inefficient; does not leverage existing English model.
- ✗
Retrain the English model with a mix of English and French contracts.
Why it's wrong here
Azure AI Language custom NER doesn't support mixed-language training in a single project.
- ✗
Use Azure AI Translator to translate French contracts to English, then use the English model.
Why it's wrong here
Translation may lose legal nuances and accuracy.
- ✓
Use the multilingual option in Azure AI Language custom NER to extend the existing project to include French.
Why this is correct
Multilingual projects allow extending to other languages leveraging existing training.
