# t5-qg_webnlg_synth-en
## Model description
This model is a *Data Question Generation* model based on T5-small, that generates questions given a structured table as input and the conditioned answer.
It is actually a component of [QuestEval](https://github.com/recitalAI/QuestEval) metric but can be used independently as it is, for QG only.
## How to use
```python
from transformers import T5Tokenizer, T5ForConditionalGeneration
tokenizer = T5Tokenizer.from_pretrained("ThomasNLG/t5-qg_webnlg_synth-en")
model = T5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("ThomasNLG/t5-qg_webnlg_synth-en")
```
You can play with the model using the inference API, the text input format should follow this template (accordingly to the training stage of the model):
`text_input = "{ANSWER} </s> {CONTEXT}"`
where CONTEXT is a structured table that is linearised this way:
`CONTEXT = "name [ The Eagle ] , eatType [ coffee shop ] , food [ French ] , priceRange [ £ 2 0 - 2 5 ]"`
## Training data
The model was trained on synthetic data as described in [Data-QuestEval: A Referenceless Metric for Data to Text Semantic Evaluation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.07555).
