Questions about the Transformers NER usage example

1

I’m just learn Pytorch and was following the NER example here https://huggingface.co/transformers/usage.html#named-entity-recognition that produces this output:

[
    {'word': 'Hu', 'score': 0.9995632767677307, 'entity': 'I-ORG'},
    {'word': '##gging', 'score': 0.9915938973426819, 'entity': 'I-ORG'},
    {'word': 'Face', 'score': 0.9982671737670898, 'entity': 'I-ORG'},
    {'word': 'Inc', 'score': 0.9994403719902039, 'entity': 'I-ORG'},
    {'word': 'New', 'score': 0.9994346499443054, 'entity': 'I-LOC'},
    {'word': 'York', 'score': 0.9993270635604858, 'entity': 'I-LOC'},
    {'word': 'City', 'score': 0.9993864893913269, 'entity': 'I-LOC'},
    {'word': 'D', 'score': 0.9825621843338013, 'entity': 'I-LOC'},
    {'word': '##UM', 'score': 0.936983048915863, 'entity': 'I-LOC'},
    {'word': '##BO', 'score': 0.8987102508544922, 'entity': 'I-LOC'},
    {'word': 'Manhattan', 'score': 0.9758241176605225, 'entity': 'I-LOC'},
    {'word': 'Bridge', 'score': 0.990249514579773, 'entity': 'I-LOC'}
]
  1. Shouldn’t the first entity be labeled ‘B-ORG’?
  2. Do I need to write my own function to stitch split words like ‘Hugging’ back together or is there something prebuilt for that?

This question seems to be specific to the documentation of Huggingface’s Transformers.
