Download libtorch from here
-
install
cmake
, tested withcmake
version3.10.2
-
unzip downloaded model and
libtorch
inBERT-NER
-
Compile C++ App
cd cpp-app/ cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=../libtorch
make
-
Runing APP
./app ../base
NB: Bert-Base C++ model is split in to two parts.
- Bert Feature extractor and NER classifier.
- This is done because
