Contrary to my other models, this one is purely a repackaging of [flair/ner-dutch-large](https://huggingface.co/flair/ner-dutch-large) but transformed back to pure huggingface pytorch for performance purposes.


```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForTokenClassification
from transformers import pipeline

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("EvanD/dutch-ner-xlm-conll2003")
ner_model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained("EvanD/dutch-ner-xlm-conll2003")

nlp = pipeline("ner", model=ner_model, tokenizer=tokenizer, aggregation_strategy="simple")
example = "George Washington ging naar Washington"

ner_results = nlp(example)
print(ner_results)
