## Usage
```python
>>> from transformers import BertTokenizer as ElasticBertTokenizer
>>> from models.configuration_elasticbert import ElasticBertConfig
>>> from models.modeling_elasticbert import ElasticBertForSequenceClassification
>>> num_output_layers = 1
>>> config = ElasticBertConfig.from_pretrained('fnlp/elasticbert-large', num_output_layers=num_output_layers )
>>> tokenizer = ElasticBertTokenizer.from_pretrained('fnlp/elasticbert-large')
>>> model = ElasticBertForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained('fnlp/elasticbert-large', config=config)
>>> input_ids = tokenizer.encode('The actors are fantastic .', return_tensors='pt')
>>> outputs = model(input_ids)
```
