Changed default values of max_seq_len and doc_stride in infer load depending if they are explicit set #785

Closed ftesser closed 3 years ago

ftesser commented 3 years ago

I was experimenting with different values of max_seq_len, looking at the following line in the QA example:

https://github.com/deepset-ai/FARM/blob/c9235f287ed92e09a46d7dc3572bf462f2ec95f7/examples/question_answering.py#L113

I noticed that the load method always sets max_seq_len=256. In fact if the load method is not explicitly set max_seq_len the value of 256 is used (https://github.com/deepset-ai/FARM/blob/c9235f287ed92e09a46d7dc3572bf462f2ec95f7/farm/infer.py#L279)

I think that, if it is not explicit set, a better value to set should be the one loaded from the model config. This PR do that for both max_seq_len and doc_stride.
