Biography

I am a PhD student on the INCEpTION project where I am working on interactive annotation for NLP. Currently I research how several annotation tasks, e.g. creating corpora with linked entities or predicate-argument structures can be supported by interactive machine learning. In my free time, I love to learn Mandarin.

Use pretokenized text with Huggingface transformers
For seqviz and INCEpTION external recommender, I recently had the problems that I needed to use BERT for sequence tagging but needed to predict labels for my own tokens. The problem is that transformers typically use subword tokenization like WordPiece or Sentence piece.
