Add experimental coref docs (#11291)

Browse Source 
* Add experimental coref docs

* Docs cleanup

* Apply suggestions from code review

Co-authored-by: Sofie Van Landeghem <svlandeg@users.noreply.github.com>

* Apply changes from code review

* Fix prettier formatting

It seems a period after a number made this think it was a list?

* Update docs on examples for initialize

* Add docs for coref scorers

* Remove 3.4 notes from coref

There won't be a "new" tag until it's in core.

* Add docs for span cleaner

* Fix docs

* Fix docs to match spacy-experimental

These weren't properly updated when the code was moved out of spacy
core.

* More doc fixes

* Formatting

* Update architectures

* Fix links

* Fix another link

## Coreference {#coref-architectures tag="experimental"}
A [`CoreferenceResolver`](/api/coref) component identifies tokens that refer to
the same entity. A [`SpanResolver`](/api/span-resolver) component infers spans
from single tokens. Together these components can be used to reproduce
traditional coreference models. You can also omit the `SpanResolver` if working
with only token-level clusters is acceptable.

<Infobox title="Important note" variant="warning">
This component is not yet integrated into spaCy core, and is available via the
extension package
[`spacy-experimental`](https://github.com/explosion/spacy-experimental) starting
in version 0.6.0. It exposes the component via
[entry points](/usage/saving-loading/#entry-points), so if you have the package
installed, using `factory = "experimental_coref"` in your
[training config](/usage/training#config) or
`nlp.add_pipe("experimental_coref")` will work out-of-the-box.
</Infobox>
A `CoreferenceResolver` component groups tokens into clusters that refer to the
same thing. Clusters are represented as SpanGroups that start with a prefix
(`coref_clusters` by default).
A `CoreferenceResolver` component can be paired with a
[`SpanResolver`](/api/span-resolver) to expand single tokens to spans.
## Assigned Attributes {#assigned-attributes}
Predictions will be saved to `Doc.spans` as a [`SpanGroup`](/api/spangroup). The
span key will be a prefix plus a serial number referring to the coreference
cluster, starting from zero.
The span key prefix defaults to `"coref_clusters"`, but can be passed as a
parameter.
| Location | Value |
| ------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Doc.spans[prefix + "_" + cluster_number]` | One coreference cluster, represented as single-token spans. Cluster numbers start from 1. ~~SpanGroup~~ |
## Config and implementation {#config}
The default config is defined by the pipeline component factory and describes
how the component should be configured. You can override its settings via the
`config` argument on [`nlp.add_pipe`](/api/language#add_pipe) or in your
[`config.cfg` for training](/usage/training#config). See the
[model architectures](/api/architectures#coref-architectures) documentation for
details on the architectures and their arguments and hyperparameters.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> from spacy_experimental.coref.coref_component import DEFAULT_COREF_MODEL
> from spacy_experimental.coref.coref_util import DEFAULT_CLUSTER_PREFIX
> config={
> "model": DEFAULT_COREF_MODEL,
> "span_cluster_prefix": DEFAULT_CLUSTER_PREFIX,
> },
> nlp.add_pipe("experimental_coref", config=config)
> ```

| `span_cluster_prefix` | The prefix for the keys for clusters saved to `doc.spans`. Defaults to `coref_clusters`. ~~str~~ |
## CoreferenceResolver.\_\_init\_\_ {#init tag="method"}
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> # Construction via add_pipe with default model
> coref = nlp.add_pipe("experimental_coref")
>
> # Construction via add_pipe with custom model
> config = {"model": {"@architectures": "my_coref.v1"}}
> coref = nlp.add_pipe("experimental_coref", config=config)
>
> # Construction from class
> from spacy_experimental.coref.coref_component import CoreferenceResolver
> coref = CoreferenceResolver(nlp.vocab, model)
> ```
Create a new pipeline instance. In your application, you would normally use a
shortcut for this and instantiate the component using its string name and
[`nlp.add_pipe`](/api/language#add_pipe).
| Name | Description |
| --------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `vocab` | The shared vocabulary. ~~Vocab~~ |
| `model` | The [`Model`](https://thinc.ai/docs/api-model) powering the pipeline component. ~~Model~~ |

| `span_cluster_prefix` | The prefix for the key for saving clusters of spans. ~~bool~~ |
## CoreferenceResolver.\_\_call\_\_ {#call tag="method"}
Apply the pipe to one document. The document is modified in place and returned.
This usually happens under the hood when the `nlp` object is called on a text
and all pipeline components are applied to the `Doc` in order. Both
[`__call__`](/api/coref#call) and [`pipe`](/api/coref#pipe) delegate to the
[`predict`](/api/coref#predict) and
[`set_annotations`](/api/coref#set_annotations) methods.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> doc = nlp("This is a sentence.")
> coref = nlp.add_pipe("experimental_coref")
> # This usually happens under the hood
> processed = coref(doc)

## CoreferenceResolver.pipe {#pipe tag="method"}
Apply the pipe to a stream of documents. This usually happens under the hood
when the `nlp` object is called on a text and all pipeline components are
applied to the `Doc` in order. Both [`__call__`](/api/coref#call) and
[`pipe`](/api/coref#pipe) delegate to the [`predict`](/api/coref#predict) and
[`set_annotations`](/api/coref#set_annotations) methods.
> #### Example

## CoreferenceResolver.initialize {#initialize tag="method"}
Initialize the component for training. `get_examples` should be a function that
returns an iterable of [`Example`](/api/example) objects. **At least one example
should be supplied.** The data examples are used to **initialize the model** of
the component and can either be the full training data or a representative
sample. Initialization includes validating the network,
[inferring missing shapes](https://thinc.ai/docs/usage-models#validation) and
setting up the label scheme based on the data. This method is typically called
by [`Language.initialize`](/api/language#initialize).
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> coref = nlp.add_pipe("experimental_coref")
> coref.initialize(lambda: examples, nlp=nlp)

modifying them. Clusters are returned as a list of `MentionClusters`, one for
each input `Doc`. A `MentionClusters` instance is just a list of lists of pairs
of `int`s, where each item corresponds to a cluster, and the `int`s correspond
to token indices.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> coref = nlp.add_pipe("experimental_coref")

A `SpanResolver` component takes in tokens (represented as `Span` objects of
length 1) and resolves them into `Span` objects of arbitrary length. The initial
use case is as a post-processing step on word-level

`Span` objects are configurable.
## Assigned Attributes {#assigned-attributes}
Predictions will be saved to `Doc.spans` as [`SpanGroup`s](/api/spangroup).
Input token spans will be read in using an input prefix, by default
`"coref_head_clusters"`, and output spans will be saved using an output prefix
(default `"coref_clusters"`) plus a serial number starting from one. The
prefixes are configurable.

Create a new pipeline instance. In your application, you would normally use a
shortcut for this and instantiate the component using its string name and
[`nlp.add_pipe`](/api/language#add_pipe).
| Name | Description |
| --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `vocab` | The shared vocabulary. ~~Vocab~~ |
| `model` | The [`Model`](https://thinc.ai/docs/api-model) powering the pipeline component. ~~Model~~ |
| `name` | String name of the component instance. Used to add entries to the `losses` during training. ~~str~~ |
| _keyword-only_ | |
| `input_prefix` | The prefix to use for input `SpanGroup`s. Defaults to `coref_head_clusters`. ~~str~~ |
| `output_prefix` | The prefix for predicted `SpanGroup`s. Defaults to `coref_clusters`. ~~str~~ |
## SpanResolver.\_\_call\_\_ {#call tag="method"}
Apply the pipe to one document. The document is modified in place and returned.
This usually happens under the hood when the `nlp` object is called on a text
and all pipeline components are applied to the `Doc` in order. Both
[`__call__`](#call) and [`pipe`](#pipe) delegate to the [`predict`](#predict)
and [`set_annotations`](#set_annotations) methods.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> doc = nlp("This is a sentence.")
> span_resolver = nlp.add_pipe("experimental_span_resolver")
> # This usually happens under the hood
> processed = span_resolver(doc)
> ```
| Name | Description |
| ----------- | -------------------------------- |
| `doc` | The document to process. ~~Doc~~ |
| **RETURNS** | The processed document. ~~Doc~~ |
## SpanResolver.pipe {#pipe tag="method"}
Apply the pipe to a stream of documents. This usually happens under the hood
when the `nlp` object is called on a text and all pipeline components are
applied to the `Doc` in order. Both [`__call__`](/api/span-resolver#call) and
[`pipe`](/api/span-resolver#pipe) delegate to the
[`predict`](/api/span-resolver#predict) and
[`set_annotations`](/api/span-resolver#set_annotations) methods.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> span_resolver = nlp.add_pipe("experimental_span_resolver")
> for doc in span_resolver.pipe(docs, batch_size=50):
> pass
> ```

| `batch_size` | The number of documents to buffer. Defaults to `128`. ~~int~~ |
| **YIELDS** | The processed documents in order. ~~Doc~~ |
## SpanResolver.initialize {#initialize tag="method"}
Initialize the component for training. `get_examples` should be a function that
returns an iterable of [`Example`](/api/example) objects. **At least one example
should be supplied.** The data examples are used to **initialize the model** of
the component and can either be the full training data or a representative
sample. Initialization includes validating the network,
[inferring missing shapes](https://thinc.ai/docs/usage-models#validation) and
setting up the label scheme based on the data. This method is typically called
by [`Language.initialize`](/api/language#initialize).
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> span_resolver = nlp.add_pipe("experimental_span_resolver")
> span_resolver.initialize(lambda: examples, nlp=nlp)

modifying them. Predictions are returned as a list of `MentionClusters`, one for
each input `Doc`. A `MentionClusters` instance is just a list of lists of pairs
of `int`s, where each item corresponds to an input `SpanGroup`, and the `int`s
correspond to token indices.
> #### Example
>
> ```python
> span_resolver = nlp.add_pipe("experimental_span_resolver")
> spans = span_resolver.predict([doc1, doc2])
> ```
