complete annotation
* Add deprecation warnings to `is_tagged`, `is_parsed`, `is_sentenced`
and `is_nered`
* Add `Doc._get_array_attrs()`, which returns a full list of `Doc` attrs
for use with `Doc.to_array`, `Doc.to_bytes` and `Doc.from_docs`. The
list is the `DocBin` attributes list plus `SPACY` and `LENGTH`.
Notes on `Doc.has_annotation`:
* `HEAD` is converted to `DEP` because heads don't have an unset state
* Accept `IS_SENT_START` as a synonym of `SENT_START`
Additional changes:
* Add `NORM`, `ENT_ID` and `SENT_START` to default attributes for
`DocBin`
* In `Doc.from_array()` the presence of `DEP` causes `HEAD` to override
`SENT_START`
* In `Doc.from_array()` using `attrs` other than
`Doc._get_array_attrs()` (i.e., a user's custom list rather than our
default internal list) with both `HEAD` and `SENT_START` shows a warning
that `HEAD` will override `SENT_START`
* `set_children_from_heads` does not require dependency labels to set
sentence boundaries and sets `sent_start` for all non-sentence starts to
`-1`
* Fix call to set_children_form_heads

Add official support for the `DependencyMatcher`. Redesign the pattern
specification. Fix and extend operator implementations. Update API docs
and add usage docs.
Patterns
--------
Refactor pattern structure to:
```
{
"LEFT_ID": str,
"REL_OP": str,
"RIGHT_ID": str,
"RIGHT_ATTRS": dict,
}
```
The first node contains only `RIGHT_ID` and `RIGHT_ATTRS` and all
subsequent nodes contain all four keys.
New operators
-------------
Because of the way patterns are constructed from left to right, it's
helpful to have `follows` operators along with `precedes` operators. Add
operators for simple precedes / follows alongside immediate precedes /
follows.
* `.*`: precedes
* `;`: immediately follows
* `;*`: follows
Operator fixes
--------------
* `<` and `<<` do not include the node itself
* Fix reversed order for all operators involving linear precedence (`.`,
all sibling operators)
* Linear precedence operators do not match nodes outside the same parse
Additional fixes
----------------
* Use v3 Matcher API
* Support `get` and `remove`
* Support pickling
* rename to spacy-transformers.TransformerListener
* add some more tok2vec tests
* use select_pipes
* fix docs - annotation setter was not changed in the end
* Add AttributeRuler.score
Add scoring for TAG / POS / MORPH / LEMMA if these are present in the
assigned token attributes.
Add default score weights (that don't really make a lot of sense) so
that the scores are in the default config in some form.
* Update docs
- Accept any case for label names in ents and colors option, even if actual predicted label uses different casing
- Don't text-transform: uppercase visually, if it's important to users that the label is represented as-is in the UI
* candidate generator as separate part of EL config
* update comment
* ent instead of str as input for candidate generation
* Span instead of str: correct type indication
* fix types
* unit test to create new candidate generator
* fix replace_pipe argument passing
* move error message, general cleanup
* add vocab back to KB constructor
* provide KB as callable from Vocab arg
* rename to kb_loader, fix KB serialization as part of the EL pipe
* fix typo
* reformatting
* cleanup
* fix comment
* fix wrongly duplicated code from merge conflict
* rename dump to to_disk
* from_disk instead of load_bulk
* update test after recent removal of set_morphology in tagger
* remove old doc
* Add Lemmatizer and simplify related components
* Add `Lemmatizer` pipe with `lookup` and `rule` modes using the
`Lookups` tables.
* Reduce `Tagger` to a simple tagger that sets `Token.tag` (no pos or lemma)
* Reduce `Morphology` to only keep track of morph tags (no tag map, lemmatizer,
or morph rules)
* Remove lemmatizer from `Vocab`
* Adjust many many tests
Differences:
* No default lookup lemmas
* No special treatment of TAG in `from_array` and similar required
* Easier to modify labels in a `Tagger`
* No extra strings added from morphology / tag map
* Fix test
* Initial fix for Lemmatizer config/serialization
* Adjust init test to be more generic
* Adjust init test to force empty Lookups
* Add simple cache to rule-based lemmatizer
* Convert language-specific lemmatizers
Convert language-specific lemmatizers to component lemmatizers. Remove
previous lemmatizer class.
* Fix French and Polish lemmatizers
* Remove outdated UPOS conversions
* Update Russian lemmatizer init in tests
* Add minimal init/run tests for custom lemmatizers
* Add option to overwrite existing lemmas
* Update mode setting, lookup loading, and caching
* Make `mode` an immutable property
* Only enforce strict `load_lookups` for known supported modes
* Move caching into individual `_lemmatize` methods
* Implement strict when lang is not found in lookups
* Fix tables/lookups in make_lemmatizer
* Reallow provided lookups and allow for stricter checks
* Add lookups asset to all Lemmatizer pipe tests
* Rename lookups in lemmatizer init test
* Clean up merge
* Refactor lookup table loading
* Add helper from `load_lemmatizer_lookups` that loads required and
optional lookups tables based on settings provided by a config.
Additional slight refactor of lookups:
* Add `Lookups.set_table` to set a table from a provided `Table`
* Reorder class definitions to be able to specify type as `Table`
* Move registry assets into test methods
* Refactor lookups tables config
Use class methods within `Lemmatizer` to provide the config for
particular modes and to load the lookups from a config.
* Add pipe and score to lemmatizer
* Simplify Tagger.score
* Add missing import
* Clean up imports and auto-format
* Remove unused kwarg
* Tidy up and auto-format
* Update docstrings for Lemmatizer
Update docstrings for Lemmatizer.
Additionally modify `is_base_form` API to take `Token` instead of
individual features.
* Update docstrings
* Remove tag map values from Tagger.add_label
* Update API docs
* Fix relative link in Lemmatizer API docs
* Allow Doc.char_span to snap to token boundaries
Add a `mode` option to allow `Doc.char_span` to snap to token
boundaries. The `mode` options:
* `strict`: character offsets must match token boundaries (default, same as
before)
* `inside`: all tokens completely within the character span
* `outside`: all tokens at least partially covered by the character span
Add a new helper function `token_by_char` that returns the token
corresponding to a character position in the text. Update
`token_by_start` and `token_by_end` to use `token_by_char` for more
efficient searching.
* Remove unused import
* Rename mode to alignment_mode
Rename `mode` to `alignment_mode` with the options
`strict`/`contract`/`expand`. Any unrecognized modes are silently
converted to `strict`.
* Refactor the Scorer to improve flexibility
Refactor the `Scorer` to improve flexibility for arbitrary pipeline
components.
* Individual pipeline components provide their own `evaluate` methods
that score a list of `Example`s and return a dictionary of scores
* `Scorer` is initialized either:
* with a provided pipeline containing components to be scored
* with a default pipeline containing the built-in statistical
components (senter, tagger, morphologizer, parser, ner)
* `Scorer.score` evaluates a list of `Example`s and returns a dictionary
of scores referring to the scores provided by the components in the
pipeline
Significant differences:
* `tags_acc` is renamed to `tag_acc` to be consistent with `token_acc`
and the new `morph_acc`, `pos_acc`, and `lemma_acc`
* Scoring is no longer cumulative: `Scorer.score` scores a list of
examples rather than a single example and does not retain any state
about previously scored examples
* PRF values in the returned scores are no longer multiplied by 100
* Add kwargs to Morphologizer.evaluate
* Create generalized scoring methods in Scorer
* Generalized static scoring methods are added to `Scorer`
* Methods require an attribute (either on Token or Doc) that is
used to key the returned scores
Naming differences:
* `uas`, `las`, and `las_per_type` in the scores dict are renamed to
`dep_uas`, `dep_las`, and `dep_las_per_type`
Scoring differences:
* `Doc.sents` is now scored as spans rather than on sentence-initial
token positions so that `Doc.sents` and `Doc.ents` can be scored with
the same method (this lowers scores since a single incorrect sentence
start results in two incorrect spans)
* Simplify / extend hasattr check for eval method
* Add hasattr check to tokenizer scoring
* Simplify to hasattr check for component scoring
* Reset Example alignment if docs are set
Reset the Example alignment if either doc is set in case the
tokenization has changed.
* Add PRF tokenization scoring for tokens as spans
Add PRF scores for tokens as character spans. The scores are:
* token_acc: # correct tokens / # gold tokens
* token_p/r/f: PRF for (token.idx, token.idx + len(token))
* Add docstring to Scorer.score_tokenization
* Rename component.evaluate() to component.score()
* Update Scorer API docs
* Update scoring for positive_label in textcat
* Fix TextCategorizer.score kwargs
* Update Language.evaluate docs

* Replace typing's type annotations in from_docs.
* Simply remove type annotations in from_docs.
* Add documentation for Doc.from_docs to api.
* Simplify from_docs, its test and the api doc for codebase consistency.
* Fix merging of Doc objects that end with whitespaces (Achieved by simply not setting the SPACY attribute on whitespace tokens). Remove two unnecessary imports of attributes.
* Add merging of user data from Doc objects in from_docs. Add user data test case to corresponding test. Add applicable warning messages.
* Fix incorrect setting of tokens idx by using concatenated spaces (again). Add test case to corresponding test.
* Add MORPH to attrs

* Add version number to DocBin
Add a version number to DocBin for future use.
* Add POS to all attributes in DocBin
* Add morph string to strings in DocBin
* Update DocBin API
* Add string for ENT_KB_ID in DocBin
Very minor fix in docs, specifically in this part:
```
matcher = PhraseMatcher(nlp.vocab)
> for doc in matcher.pipe(texts, batch_size=50):
> pass
```
`texts` suggests the input is an iterable of strings. I replaced it for `docs`.

To fix the slow tokenizer URL (#4374) and allow `token_match` to take
priority over prefixes and suffixes by default, introduce a new
tokenizer option for a token match pattern that's applied after prefixes
and suffixes but before infixes.
* `debug-data`: determine coverage of provided vectors
* `evaluate`: support `blank:lg` model to make it possible to just evaluate
tokenization
* `init-model`: add option to truncate vectors to N most frequent vectors
from word2vec file
* `train`:
* if training on GPU, only run evaluation/timing on CPU in the first
iteration
* if training is aborted, exit with a non-0 exit status
Reconstruction of the original PR #4697 by @MiniLau.
Removes unused `SENT_END` symbol and `IS_SENT_END` from `Matcher` schema
because the Matcher is only going to be able to support `IS_SENT_START`.
* add lemma option to displacy 'dep' visualiser
* more compact list comprehension
* add option to doc
* fix test and add lemmas to util.get_doc
* fix capital
* remove lemma from get_doc
* cleanup
* Update token.md
documentation is confusing: A '?' is a right punct, but '¿' is a left punct
* Update token.md
add quotations around parentheses in `is_left_punct` and `is_right_punct` for clarrification, ensuring the question mark that follows is not percieved as an example of left and right punctuation
* Move quotes into code block [ci skip]
* Expose tokenizer rules as a property
Expose the tokenizer rules property in the same way as the other core
properties. (The cache resetting is overkill, but consistent with
`from_bytes` for now.)
Add tests and update Tokenizer API docs.
* Update Hungarian punctuation to remove empty string
Update Hungarian punctuation definitions so that `_units` does not match
an empty string.
* Use _load_special_tokenization consistently
Use `_load_special_tokenization()` and have it to handle `None` checks.
* Fix precedence of `token_match` vs. special cases
Remove `token_match` check from `_split_affixes()` so that special cases
have precedence over `token_match`. `token_match` is checked only before
infixes are split.
* Add `make_debug_doc()` to the Tokenizer
Add `make_debug_doc()` to the Tokenizer as a working implementation of
the pseudo-code in the docs.
Add a test (marked as slow) that checks that `nlp.tokenizer()` and
`nlp.tokenizer.make_debug_doc()` return the same non-whitespace tokens
for all languages that have `examples.sentences` that can be imported.
* Update tokenization usage docs
Update pseudo-code and algorithm description to correspond to
`nlp.tokenizer.make_debug_doc()` with example debugging usage.
Add more examples for customizing tokenizers while preserving the
existing defaults.
Minor edits / clarifications.
* Revert "Update Hungarian punctuation to remove empty string"
This reverts commit f0a577f7a5.
* Rework `make_debug_doc()` as `explain()`
Rework `make_debug_doc()` as `explain()`, which returns a list of
`(pattern_string, token_string)` tuples rather than a non-standard
`Doc`. Update docs and tests accordingly, leaving the visualization for
future work.
* Handle cases with bad tokenizer patterns
Detect when tokenizer patterns match empty prefixes and suffixes so that
`explain()` does not hang on bad patterns.

whitespace-separated columns
* Supports all formats where the first column is the token and the final

* As in CoNLL 2003 NER, blank lines separate sentences, `-DOCSTART- -X- O O`
separates documents
* Add option for segmenting sentences (new flag `-s`)
* Parser-based sentence segmentation with a provided model, otherwise with

* Add sample NER data to training examples
* Update README
* Add links in docs to example NER data

I think it might be a bit more consistent to have `ner` named `entities`
or `ents` (and `ents` is actually set somewhere to `None`, which is a
bit confusing), but it looks like renaming it would be a non-trivial
decision.
