seqeval 0.0.6

# seqeval
seqeval is a Python framework for sequence labeling evaluation.
seqeval can evaluate the performance of chunking tasks such as named-entity recognition, part-of-speech tagging, semantic role labeling and so on.

This is well-tested by using the Perl script [conlleval](https://www.clips.uantwerpen.be/conll2002/ner/bin/conlleval.txt),
which can be used for measuring the performance of a system that has processed the CoNLL-2000 shared task data.

## Support features
seqeval supports following formats:
* IOB1
* IOB2
* IOE1
* IOE2
* IOBES

and supports following metrics:

| metrics | description |
|---|---|
| accuracy_score(y\_true, y\_pred) | Compute the accuracy. |
| precision_score(y\_true, y\_pred) | Compute the precision. |
| recall_score(y\_true, y\_pred) | Compute the recall. |
| f1_score(y\_true, y\_pred) | Compute the F1 score, also known as balanced F-score or F-measure. |
| classification_report(y\_true, y\_pred, digits=2) | Build a text report showing the main classification metrics. `digits` is number of digits for formatting output floating point values. Default value is `2`. |

## Usage
Behold, the power of seqeval:

```python
>>> from seqeval.metrics import accuracy_score
>>> from seqeval.metrics import classification_report
>>> from seqeval.metrics import f1_score
>>>
>>> y_true = [['O', 'O', 'O', 'B-MISC', 'I-MISC', 'I-MISC', 'O'], ['B-PER', 'I-PER', 'O']]
>>> y_pred = [['O', 'O', 'B-MISC', 'I-MISC', 'I-MISC', 'I-MISC', 'O'], ['B-PER', 'I-PER', 'O']]
>>>
>>> f1_score(y_true, y_pred)
0.50
>>> accuracy_score(y_true, y_pred)
0.80
>>> classification_report(y_true, y_pred)
precision recall f1-score support
