Xlm Roberta Large Tydip

🚀 Multilingual Politeness Classification Model

This model is designed for text classification, leveraging the power of xlm - roberta - large to classify politeness across multiple languages.

🚀 Quick Start

This model is based on xlm - roberta - large and is finetuned on the English subset of the TyDiP dataset, as discussed in the original paper here.

✨ Features

• Multilingual Support: In the paper, this model was evaluated on English + 9 Languages (Hindi, Korean, Spanish, Tamil, French, Vietnamese, Russian, Afrikaans, Hungarian). Given the model's good performance and XLMR's cross - lingual abilities, it is likely that this finetuned model can be used for more languages as well.
• High - Accuracy Classification: The model demonstrates high accuracy in politeness classification across multiple languages.

📦 Installation

No specific installation steps are provided in the original README. If you want to use the model, you need to have the transformers library installed. You can install it using pip install transformers.

💻 Usage Examples

Basic Usage

You can use this model directly with a text - classification pipeline.

from transformers import pipeline

classifier = pipeline(task="text-classification", model="Genius1237/xlm-roberta-large-tydip")

sentences = ["Could you please get me a glass of water", "mere liye पानी का एक गिलास ले आओ "]

print(classifier(sentences))
# [{'label': 'polite', 'score': 0.9076159000396729}, {'label': 'impolite', 'score': 0.765066385269165}]

Advanced Usage

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification
import torch

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('Genius1237/xlm-roberta-large-tydip')
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained('Genius1237/xlm-roberta-large-tydip')

text = "Could you please get me a glass of water"
encoded_input = tokenizer(text, return_tensors='pt')

output = model(**encoded_input)
prediction = torch.argmax(output.logits).item()

print(model.config.id2label[prediction])
# polite

    abstract = "We study politeness phenomena in nine typologically diverse languages. Politeness is an important facet of communication and is sometimes argued to be cultural-specific, yet existing computational linguistic study is limited to English. We create TyDiP, a dataset containing three-way politeness annotations for 500 examples in each language, totaling 4.5K examples. We evaluate how well multilingual models can identify politeness levels {--} they show a fairly robust zero-shot transfer ability, yet fall short of estimated human accuracy significantly. We further study mapping the English politeness strategy lexicon into nine languages via automatic translation and lexicon induction, analyzing whether each strategy{'}s impact stays consistent across languages. Lastly, we empirically study the complicated relationship between formality and politeness through transfer experiments. We hope our dataset will support various research questions and applications, from evaluating multilingual models to constructing polite multilingual agents.",
