Model description

A Fusion in Decoder(FiD) model based on BART for the KILT-ELI5 task.

The FiD model was in introduced in the paper 'Leveraging Passage Retrieval with Generative Models for Open Domain Question Answering'.

This model has been initialized with facebook/bart-large.

This model was trained with the KILT-ELI5 questions and supporting passages obtained from a ColBERT index of the 2019/08/01 Wikipedia dump.

Intended uses & limitations

You can use this raw model for the generative question answering task. Biases associated with the pre-existing language model that we used, facebook/bart-large, may be present in our fine-tuned model.

Usage

You can use this model directly with the PrimeQA's Generative FiD Reader.
