Attention masking is applied automatically to prevent cross-sequence attention, ensuring batch results are identical to individual inference.

vs others: More efficient than processing sequences individually (which wastes GPU resources) but requires careful memory management compared to fixed-size batching. Faster than sequential processing but slower per-request than optimized single-sequence inference.

Attention masks are automatically generated and passed to the BERT encoder, ensuring padding tokens do not contribute to entity predictions while maintaining numerical stability.

vs others: More efficient than fixed-length padding (which pads all sequences to 512 tokens) and simpler than manual sequence bucketing, while achieving similar throughput improvements with less code complexity.
