| When you call #[code nlp] on a text, spaCy first tokenizes the text to
| produce a #[code Doc] object. The #[code Doc] is then processed in several
| different steps this is also referred to as the
| #[strong processing pipeline]. The pipeline used by the
| #[+a("/models") default models] consists of a tagger, a parser and an
| entity recognizer. Each pipeline component returns the processed
| #[code Doc], which is then passed on to the next component.

p
| The processing pipeline always #[strong depends on the statistical model]
| and its capabilities. For example, a pipeline can only include an entity
| recognizer component if the model includes data to make predictions of
| entity labels. This is why each model will specify the pipeline to use
| in its meta data, as a simple list containing the component names:
+code(false, "json").
"pipeline": ["tagger", "parser", "ner"]
p
| Although you can mix and match pipeline components, their
| #[strong order and combination] is usually important. Some components may
| require certain modifications on the #[code Doc] to process it. As the
| processing pipeline is applied, spaCy encodes the document's internal
| #[strong meaning representations] as an array of floats, also called a
| #[strong tensor]. This includes the tokens and their context, which is
| required for the first component, the tagger, to make predictions of the
| part-of-speech tags. Because spaCy's models are neural network models,
| they only "speak" tensors and expect the input #[code Doc] to have
| a #[code tensor].
