- text: "¿Por qué provincias pasa el Tajo?"
context: "El Tajo es el río más largo de la península ibérica, a la que atraviesa en su parte central, siguiendo un rumbo este-oeste, con una leve inclinación hacia el suroeste, que se acentúa cuando llega a Portugal, donde recibe el nombre de Tejo.
Nace en los montes Universales, en la sierra de Albarracín, sobre la rama occidental del sistema Ibérico y, después de recorrer 1007 km, llega al océano Atlántico en la ciudad de Lisboa. En su desembocadura forma el estuario del mar de la Paja, en el que vierte un caudal medio de 456 m³/s. En sus primeros 816 km atraviesa España, donde discurre por cuatro comunidades autónomas (Aragón, Castilla-La Mancha, Madrid y Extremadura) y un total de seis provincias (Teruel, Guadalajara, Cuenca, Madrid, Toledo y Cáceres)."

# ixambert-base-cased finetuned for QA
This is a basic implementation of the multilingual model ["ixambert-base-cased"](https://huggingface.co/ixa-ehu/ixambert-base-cased), fine-tuned on an experimental version of SQuAD1.1 in Basque (1/3 size of original SQuAD1.1), that is able to answer basic factual questions.
## Overview
* **Language model:** ixambert-base-cased
* **Languages:** English, Spanish and Basque
* **Downstream task:** Extractive QA
* **Training data:** Experimental SQuAD1.1 in Basque
* **Eval data:** Experimental SQuAD1.1 in Basque
* **Infrastructure:** 1x GeForce RTX 2080
## Outputs
The model outputs the answer to the question, the start and end positions of the answer in the original context, and a score for the probability for that span of text to be the correct answer. For example:
```python
{'score': 0.9667195081710815, 'start': 101, 'end': 105, 'answer': '1820'}
```
## How to use
```python
from transformers import AutoModelForQuestionAnswering, AutoTokenizer, pipeline
model_name = "MarcBrun/ixambert-finetuned-squad-eu"
# To get predictions
context = "Florence Nightingale, known for being the founder of modern nursing, was born in Florence, Italy, in 1820"
question = "When was Florence Nightingale born?"
qa = pipeline("question-answering", model=model_name, tokenizer=model_name)
pred = qa(question=question,context=context)
# To load the model and tokenizer
model = AutoModelForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained(model_name)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
```
## Hyperparameters

batch_size = 8
n_epochs = 3
learning_rate = 2e-5
