token-classification model by undefined. 18,11,113 downloads.

Unique: Implements dynamic padding via transformers' DataCollator pattern, which pads to the longest sequence in each batch rather than a fixed length, reducing wasted computation. Attention masks are automatically generated and passed to the BERT encoder, ensuring padding tokens do not contribute to entity predictions while maintaining numerical stability.
