    where info is a dict, and is_best_checkpoint is in [True, False, None] --
    None indicating that the iteration was not evaluated as a checkpoint.
    The evaluation is conducted by calling the evaluate callback.

    Positional arguments:
        nlp: The spaCy pipeline to evaluate.
        optimizer: The optimizer callable.
        train_data (Iterable[Batch]): A generator of batches, with the training
            data. Each batch should be a Sized[Tuple[Input, Annot]]. The training
            data iterable needs to take care of iterating over the epochs and
            shuffling.
        evaluate (Callable[[], Tuple[float, Any]]): A callback to perform evaluation.
            The callback should take no arguments and return a tuple
            `(main_score, other_scores)`. The main_score should be a float where
            higher is better. other_scores can be any object.

    Every iteration, the function yields out a tuple with:

    * batch: A list of Example objects.
    * info: A dict with various information about the last update (see below).
    * is_best_checkpoint: A value in None, False, True, indicating whether this
        was the best evaluation so far. You should use this to save the model
        checkpoints during training. If None, evaluation was not conducted on
        that iteration. False means evaluation was conducted, but a previous
        evaluation was better.

    The info dict provides the following information:

        epoch (int): How many passes over the data have been completed.
        step (int): How many steps have been completed.
        score (float): The main score from the last evaluation.
        other_scores: : The other scores from the last evaluation.
        losses: The accumulated losses throughout training.
        checkpoints: A list of previous results, where each result is a
            (score, step, epoch) tuple.
