## Environment info
<!-- You can run the command `transformers-cli env` and copy-and-paste its output below.
     Don't forget to fill out the missing fields in that output! -->
     
- `transformers` version: 3.3.1 (installed from master)
- `datasets` version: 1.0.2 (installed as a dependency from transformers)
- Platform: Linux-4.15.0-118-generic-x86_64-with-debian-stretch-sid
- Python version: 3.7.9

I'm testing my own text classification dataset using [this example](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/examples/text-classification#run-generic-text-classification-script-in-tensorflow) from transformers. The dataset is split into train / dev / test, and in csv format, containing just a text and a label columns, using comma as sep. Here's a sample:
```
text,label
"Registra-se a presença do acadêmico <name> . <REL_SEP> Ao me deparar com a descrição de dois autores no polo ativo da ação junto ao PJe , margem esquerda foi informado pela procuradora do reclamante que se trata de uma reclamação trabalhista individual . <REL_SEP> Diante disso , face a ausência injustificada do autor <name> , determina-se o ARQUIVAMENTO do presente processo , com relação a este , nos termos do [[ art . 844 da CLT ]] . <REL_SEP> CUSTAS AUTOR - DISPENSADO <REL_SEP> Custas pelo autor no importe de R $326,82 , calculadas sobre R $16.341,03 , dispensadas na forma da lei , em virtude da concessão dos benefícios da Justiça Gratuita , ora deferida . <REL_SEP> Cientes os presentes . <REL_SEP> Audiência encerrada às 8h42min . <REL_SEP> <name> <REL_SEP> Juíza do Trabalho <REL_SEP> Ata redigida por << <name> >> , Secretário de Audiência .",NO_RELATION
```

However, @Santosh-Gupta reported in #7351 that he had the exact same problem using the ChemProt dataset. His colab notebook is referenced in the following section.

## To reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Created a new conda environment using conda env -n transformers python=3.7
2. Cloned transformers master, `cd` into it and installed using pip install --editable .  -r examples/requirements.txt 
3. Installed tensorflow with `pip install tensorflow`
3. Ran `run_tf_text_classification.py` with the following parameters:

```
--train_file <DATASET_PATH>/train.csv \
--dev_file <DATASET_PATH>/dev.csv \ 
--test_file <DATASET_PATH>/test.csv \
--label_column_id 1 \
--model_name_or_path neuralmind/bert-base-portuguese-cased \
--output_dir <OUTPUT_PATH> \
--num_train_epochs 4 \
--per_device_train_batch_size 4 \
--per_device_eval_batch_size 4 \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--do_predict \
--logging_steps 1000 \
--evaluate_during_training \
--save_steps 1000 \
--overwrite_output_dir \
--overwrite_cache
```

## Expected behavior

Should be able to run the text-classification example as described in [https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/examples/text-classification#run-generic-text-classification-script-in-tensorflow](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/examples/text-classification#run-generic-text-classification-script-in-tensorflow)

Originally opened this issue at transformers' repository: [https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/7535](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/7535). @jplu instructed me to open here, since according to [this](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/7535#issuecomment-702778885) evidence, the problem is from datasets.

Thanks!

Comments: Hi !
Thanks for reporting :) 
Indeed this is an issue on the `datasets` side.
I'm creating a PR

Thanks @lhoestq !
