This PR adds the option to choose which hidden state to use in FlairEmbeddings: either the state at the end of each word, or the state at the whitespace after. Default is the state at the whitespace after.
You can change the default like this:
This configuration seems to be better for syntactic tasks. For POS tagging, it seems that you should set
with_whitespace=False
. For instance, on UD_ENGLISH POS-tagging, we get 96.56 +- 0.03 with whitespace and 96.72 +- 0.04 without, averaged over three runs.See the discussion in #1362 for more details.
