Recommendation of fixing numpy version due to error when calling parser.load_models(·)

[ivsanro1]

Hello,

If your requirement is just "numpy", it will install the latest version (e.g. numpy-1.17.5 as of the day this issue was created), and this leads to an error when loading the model with the parser:

Object arrays cannot be loaded when allow_pickle=False

Which can be solved by downgrading the numpy version (e.g. to version 1.16.1)

I suggest changing this at least in the requirements specified in the README.

Also You can chgange load method in ner.py as
def load_models(self, loc=None):
if not loc:
loc = os.path.join(os.path.expanduser('~'), '.ner_model')
self.model = load_model(os.path.join(loc,"model.h5"))
# loading word2Idx
np.load.defaults=(None, True, True, 'ASCII')
self.word2Idx = np.load(os.path.join(loc,"word2Idx.npy")).item()
# loading idx2Label
self.idx2Label = np.load(os.path.join(loc,"idx2Label.npy")).item()
np.load.defaults=(None, False, True, 'ASCII')
