Mt5 Base Finetuned Tydiqa Xqa

🚀 mT5-base fine-tuned on TyDiQA for multilingual QA 🗺📖❓

Google's mT5-base fine-tuned on TyDi QA for multilingual Q&A downstream task.

🚀 Quick Start

This is Google's mT5-base fine-tuned on TyDi QA (secondary task) for the multilingual Q&A downstream task.

✨ Features

Details of mT5

Google's mT5 is pretrained on the mC4 corpus, which covers 101 languages:

Afrikaans, Albanian, Amharic, Arabic, Armenian, Azerbaijani, Basque, Belarusian, Bengali, Bulgarian, Burmese, Catalan, Cebuano, Chichewa, Chinese, Corsican, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Esperanto, Estonian, Filipino, Finnish, French, Galician, Georgian, German, Greek, Gujarati, Haitian Creole, Hausa, Hawaiian, Hebrew, Hindi, Hmong, Hungarian, Icelandic, Igbo, Indonesian, Irish, Italian, Japanese, Javanese, Kannada, Kazakh, Khmer, Korean, Kurdish, Kyrgyz, Lao, Latin, Latvian, Lithuanian, Luxembourgish, Macedonian, Malagasy, Malay, Malayalam, Maltese, Maori, Marathi, Mongolian, Nepali, Norwegian, Pashto, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Punjabi, Romanian, Russian, Samoan, Scottish Gaelic, Serbian, Shona, Sindhi, Sinhala, Slovak, Slovenian, Somali, Sotho, Spanish, Sundanese, Swahili, Swedish, Tajik, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Urdu, Uzbek, Vietnamese, Welsh, West Frisian, Xhosa, Yiddish, Yoruba, Zulu.

Note: mT5 was only pre-trained on mC4 excluding any supervised training. Therefore, this model has to be fine-tuned before it is useable on a downstream task.

Details of the dataset 📚

TyDi QA is a question answering dataset covering 11 typologically diverse languages with 204K question-answer pairs. The languages of TyDi QA are diverse with regard to their typology -- the set of linguistic features that each language expresses -- such that we expect models performing well on this set to generalize across a large number of the languages in the world. It contains language phenomena that would not be found in English-only corpora. To provide a realistic information-seeking task and avoid priming effects, questions are written by people who want to know the answer, but don’t know the answer yet, (unlike SQuAD and its descendents) and the data is collected directly in each language without the use of translation (unlike MLQA and XQuAD).

💻 Usage Examples

Basic Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch
device = torch.device('cuda' if torch.cuda.is_available() else 'cpu')
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Narrativa/mT5-base-finetuned-tydiQA-xqa")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("Narrativa/mT5-base-finetuned-tydiQA-xqa").to(device)

def get_response(question, context, max_length=32):
  input_text = 'question: %s  context: %s' % (question, context)
  features = tokenizer([input_text], return_tensors='pt')

  output = model.generate(input_ids=features['input_ids'].to(device), 
               attention_mask=features['attention_mask'].to(device),
               max_length=max_length)

  return tokenizer.decode(output[0])
  
# Some examples in different languages

context = 'HuggingFace won the best Demo paper at EMNLP2020.'
question = 'What won HuggingFace?'
get_response(question, context)

context = 'HuggingFace ganó la mejor demostración con su paper en la EMNLP2020.'
question = 'Qué ganó HuggingFace?'
get_response(question, context)

context = 'HuggingFace выиграл лучшую демонстрационную работу на EMNLP2020.'
question = 'Что победило в HuggingFace?'
get_response(question, context)

Advanced Usage

The provided code already demonstrates the basic usage. For more complex scenarios, you can adjust parameters such as max_length according to your specific needs.
