# Adapter `bert-base-uncased_sts_stackexchange_pfeiffer` for bert-base-uncased

Our adapters from the MultiCQA paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.00980) trained on the different StackExchange forums (see "version") with self-supervised training signals of unlabeled questions.


**This adapter was created for usage with the [Adapters](https://github.com/Adapter-Hub/adapters) library.**

## Usage

First, install `adapters`:

```
pip install -U adapters
```

Now, the adapter can be loaded and activated like this:

```python
from adapters import AutoAdapterModel

model = AutoAdapterModel.from_pretrained("bert-base-uncased")
adapter_name = model.load_adapter("AdapterHub/bert-base-uncased_sts_stackexchange_pfeiffer")
model.set_active_adapters(adapter_name)
```

## Architecture & Training

- Adapter architecture: pfeiffer
- Prediction head: None
- Dataset: [StackExchange QA Similarity](https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.00980)
