# Model description
An XLM-RoBERTa reading comprehension model for [SQuAD 1.1](https://aclanthology.org/D16-1264/).
The model is initialized with [xlm-roberta-large](https://huggingface.co/xlm-roberta-large/) and fine-tuned on the [SQuAD 1.1 train data](https://huggingface.co/datasets/squad).
## Intended uses & limitations
You can use the raw model for the reading comprehension task. Biases associated with the pre-existing language model, xlm-roberta-large, that we used may be present in our fine-tuned model, squad-v1-xlm-roberta-large. This model is used for zero-shot decoding of [MLQA](https://huggingface.co/datasets/mlqa) and [XQuAD](https://huggingface.co/datasets/xquad) datasets.
## Usage
You can use this model directly with the [PrimeQA](https://github.com/primeqa/primeqa) pipeline for reading comprehension [squad.ipynb](https://github.com/primeqa/primeqa/blob/main/notebooks/mrc/squad.ipynb).
