# AraT5: Text-to-Text Transformers for Arabic Language Generation

<img src="https://huggingface.co/UBC-NLP/AraT5-base/resolve/main/AraT5_CR_new.png" alt="AraT5" width="45%" height="35%" align="right"/>

This is the repository accompanying our paper [AraT5: Text-to-Text Transformers for Arabic Language Understanding and Generation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2109.12068). In this is the repository we Introduce **AraT5<sub>MSA</sub>**, **AraT5<sub>Tweet</sub>**, and **AraT5**: three powerful Arabic-specific text-to-text Transformer based models;

# How to use AraT5 models
Below is an example for fine-tuning **AraT5-base** for News Title Generation on the Aranews dataset 
``` bash
!python run_trainier_seq2seq_huggingface.py \
        --learning_rate 5e-5 \
        --max_target_length 128 --max_source_length 128 \
        --per_device_train_batch_size 8 --per_device_eval_batch_size 8 \
        --model_name_or_path "UBC-NLP/AraT5-base" \
        --output_dir "/content/AraT5_FT_title_generation" --overwrite_output_dir \
        --num_train_epochs 3 \
        --train_file "/content/ARGEn_title_genration_sample_train.tsv" \
        --validation_file "/content/ARGEn_title_genration_sample_valid.tsv" \
        --task "title_generation" --text_column "document" --summary_column "title" \
        --load_best_model_at_end --metric_for_best_model "eval_bleu" --greater_is_better True --evaluation_strategy epoch --logging_strategy epoch --predict_with_generate\
        --do_train --do_eval
```
For more details about the fine-tuning example, please read this notebook [![Open In Colab](https://colab.research.google.com/assets/colab-badge.svg)](https://github.com/UBC-NLP/araT5/blob/main/examples/Fine_tuning_AraT5.ipynb) 

In addition, we release the fine-tuned checkpoint of the News Title Generation (NGT) which is described in the paper. The model available at Huggingface ([UBC-NLP/AraT5-base-title-generation](https://huggingface.co/UBC-NLP/AraT5-base-title-generation)).

For more details, please visit our own [GitHub](https://github.com/UBC-NLP/araT5).





# AraT5 Models Checkpoints 

AraT5 Pytorch and TensorFlow checkpoints are available on the Huggingface website for direct download and use ```exclusively for research```. ```For commercial use, please contact the authors via email @ (muhammad.mageed[at]ubc[dot]ca).```
