# Model Details
The XLM model was proposed in [Cross-lingual Language Model Pretraining](https://arxiv.org/abs/1901.07291) by Guillaume Lample and Alexis Conneau. It’s a transformer pretrained with either a causal language modeling (CLM) objective (next token prediction), a masked language modeling (MLM) objective (BERT-like), or
a Translation Language Modeling (TLM) object (extension of BERT’s MLM to multiple language inputs). This model is trained with a masked language modeling objective on English text.
## Model Description

# Uses
## Direct Use
The model is a language model. The model can be used for masked language modeling.
## Downstream Use
To learn more about this task and potential downstream uses, see the Hugging Face [fill mask docs](https://huggingface.co/tasks/fill-mask) and the [Hugging Face Multilingual Models for Inference](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.20.1/en/multilingual#xlm-with-language-embeddings) docs. Also see the [associated paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/1901.07291).
## Out-of-Scope Use
The model should not be used to intentionally create hostile or alienating environments for people.
# Bias, Risks, and Limitations
Significant research has explored bias and fairness issues with language models (see, e.g., [Sheng et al. (2021)](https://aclanthology.org/2021.acl-long.330.pdf) and [Bender et al. (2021)](https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3442188.3445922)).
## Recommendations
Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model.

# Model Card Authors
This model card was written by the team at Hugging Face.
# How to Get Started with the Model
Use the code below to get started with the model. See the [Hugging Face XLM docs](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/model_doc/xlm) for more examples.
```python
from transformers import XLMTokenizer, XLMModel
import torch
tokenizer = XLMTokenizer.from_pretrained("xlm-mlm-en-2048")
model = XLMModel.from_pretrained("xlm-mlm-en-2048")
inputs = tokenizer("Hello, my dog is cute", return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model(**inputs)
last_hidden_states = outputs.last_hidden_state
```
