Pre-trained models

[loretoparisi]

Thanks for this amazing work! Recently FLAIR (PyTorch) has release state of the art models for NER in several languages. It would be worth if you will provide here pre-trained models as well! Thank you

HI @loretoparisi , This is a good suggestion, will try to provide stuff, but the purpose of this package is different than FLAIR: it's meant as something that people can tweak, integrate in their own stack etc. whereas FLAIR is more an out-of-the-box tool (in which case it makes sense to provide pre-trained models). Also, the conll2003 dataset is not open licenced, so releasing models trained on this data is a gray area...
