Examples

## Not run: 
# Load the default named entity recognition model
ez <- hf_ez_token_classification()

# Run NER. Note how the full name is aggregated into one named entity.
ez$infer(
  string = "My name is Sarah Jessica Parker but you can call me Jessica",
  aggregation_strategy = "simple"
)

# Run NER without aggregation.
# Note how the full name is separated into distinct named entities.
ez$infer(
  string = "My name is Sarah Jessica Parker but you can call me Jessica",
  aggregation_strategy = "none"
)

## End(Not run)
