 | `threshold`    | Minimum probability to consider a prediction positive. Spans with a positive prediction will be saved on the Doc. Defaults to `0.5`. ~~float~~                                                                                                                                                          |
 | `max_positive` | Maximum number of labels to consider positive per span. Defaults to `None`, indicating no limit. It is only available for the `spancat` component. ~~Optional[int]~~                                                                                                                                                                                      |
