Inference C++

Pretrained and converted bert-base model download from here

Download libtorch from here

  • install cmake, tested with cmake version 3.10.2

  • unzip downloaded model and libtorch in BERT-NER

  • Compile C++ App

      cd cpp-app/
      cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=../libtorch

    cmake output image

    make

    make output image

  • Runing APP

       ./app ../base

    inference output image

NB: Bert-Base C++ model is split in to two parts.

  • Bert Feature extractor and NER classifier.
  • This is done because jit trace don't support input depended for loop or if conditions inside forword function of model.
