+# Arabic GPT2
+
+<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aub-mind/arabert/master/AraGPT2.png" width="100" align="left"/>
+
+You can find more information in our paper [AraGPT2](https://arxiv.org/abs/2012.15520)
+
+The code in this repository was used to train all GPT2 variants. The code support training and fine-tuning GPT2 on GPUs and TPUs via the TPUEstimator API.
+
+GPT2-base and medium uses the code from the `gpt2` folder and can trains models from the [minimaxir/gpt-2-simple](https://github.com/minimaxir/gpt-2-simple) repository.
+These models were trained using the `lamb` optimizer and follow the same architecture as `gpt2` and are fully compatible with the `transformers` library.
+
+GPT2-large and GPT2-mega were trained using the [imcaspar/gpt2-ml](https://github.com/imcaspar/gpt2-ml/) library, and follow the `grover` architecture. You can use the pytorch classes found in `grover/modeling_gpt2.py` as a direct replacement for classes in the `transformers` library (it should support version `v4.x` from `transformers`).
+Both models are trained using the `adafactor` optimizer, since the `adam` and `lamb` optimizer use too much memory causing the model to not even fit 1 batch on a TPU core.
+
+AraGPT2 is trained on the same large Arabic Dataset as AraBERTv2.
+
+
+# NOTE: The model expects the input to be preprocessed using the `arabert` library.
+if not the model won't be able to generate the correct output.
+
+## Testing the model using `transformers`:
+
+The model code is now hosted on HuggingFace so you need to use the `trust_remote_code` flag, and can be used as follows:
+
+
+```python
+from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, pipeline
+
+from arabert.preprocess import ArabertPreprocessor
+
+MODEL_NAME='aubmindlab/aragpt2-large'
+arabert_prep = ArabertPreprocessor(model_name=MODEL_NAME)
+
+text=""
+text_clean = arabert_prep.preprocess(text)
+
+model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(MODEL_NAME, trust_remote_code=True)
+tokenizer = GPT2TokenizerFast.from_pretrained(MODEL_NAME)
+generation_pipeline = pipeline(
+    "text-generation", model=MODEL_NAME, trust_remote_code=True
+)
+
+#feel free to try different decoding settings
+generation_pipeline(text,
+    pad_token_id=pipeline.tokenizer.eos_token_id,
+    num_beams=10,
+    max_length=200,
+    top_p=0.9,
+    repetition_penalty = 3.0,
+    no_repeat_ngram_size = 3)[0]['generated_text']
+>>>
+```
+## Finetunning using `transformers`:
+
+Follow the guide linked [here](https://towardsdatascience.com/fine-tuning-gpt2-on-colab-gpu-for-free-340468c92ed)
+
+## Finetuning using our code with TF 1.15.4:
+
+Create the Training TFRecords:
+```bash
+python create_pretraining_data.py
+ --input_file=<RAW TEXT FILE with documents/article separated by an empty line>
+ --output_file=<OUTPUT TFRecord>
+ --tokenizer_dir=<Directory with the GPT2 Tokenizer files>
+ ```
+
+ Finetuning:
+ ```bash
+ python3 run_pretraining.py \
+  --input_file="gs://<GS_BUCKET>/pretraining_data/*" \
+  --output_dir="gs://<GS_BUCKET>/pretraining_model/" \
+  --config_file="config/small_hparams.json" \
+  --batch_size=128 \
+  --eval_batch_size=8 \
+  --num_train_steps= \

+  --learning_rate= \
+  --save_checkpoints_steps= \
+  --max_seq_length=1024 \
+  --max_eval_steps= \
+  --optimizer="lamb" \
+  --iterations_per_loop=5000 \
+  --keep_checkpoint_max=10 \
+  --use_tpu=True \

+# Dataset
+
+The pretraining data used for the new AraBERT model is also used for **GPT2 and ELECTRA**.
+
+The dataset consists of 77GB or 200,095,961 lines or 8,655,948,860 words or 82,232,988,358 chars (before applying Farasa Segmentation)
+
+For the new dataset we added the unshuffled OSCAR corpus, after we thoroughly filter it, to the previous dataset used in AraBERTv1 but with out the websites that we previously crawled:
+- OSCAR unshuffled and filtered.
