This PR is doing exactly the same thing as the notebooks PR here.
In our TF examples, we use return_tensors="tf" for the data collators. However,
prepare_tf_datasetandto_tf_datasetactually use a NumPy loader internally, which we wrap with atf.data.Datasetat the end. As a result, return_tensors="np" works much better for them, and avoids some weird slowdown bugs we've experienced.This PR replaces every instance in our examples with return_tensors="np".
