def get_token_accuracy(targets, outputs, ignore_index=None):
    """ Get the accuracy token accuracy between two tensors.

    Args:
      targets (1 - 2D :class:`torch.Tensor`): Target or true vector against which to measure
          saccuracy
      outputs (1 - 3D :class:`torch.Tensor`): Prediction or output vector
      ignore_index (int, optional): Specifies a target index that is ignored

    Returns:
      :class:`tuple` consisting of accuracy (:class:`float`), number correct (:class:`int`) and
      total (:class:`int`)

    Example:

        >>> import torch
