# german-qg-t5-drink600

This model is fine-tuned in question generation in German. The expected answer must be highlighted with `<hl>` token. It is based on [german-qg-t5-quad](https://huggingface.co/dehio/german-qg-t5-quad) and further pre-trained on drink related questions.

## Task example

#### Input
```
generate question: Der Monk Sour Drink ist ein somit eine aromatische Überraschung, 
die sowohl <hl>im Sommer wie auch zu Silvester<hl> funktioniert.
```
#### Expected Question
`Zu welchen Gelegenheiten passt der Monk Sour gut?`

## Model description

The model is based on [german-qg-t5-quad](https://huggingface.co/dehio/german-qg-t5-quad), which was pre-trained on [GermanQUAD](https://www.deepset.ai/germanquad). We further pre-trained it on questions annotated on drink receipts from [Mixology](https://mixology.eu/) ("drink600"). 
We have not yet open sourced the dataset, since we do not own copyright on the source material.

## Training and evaluation data

The training script can be accessed [here](https://github.com/d-e-h-i-o/german-qg).

## Evaluation

It achieves a **BLEU-4 score of 29.80** on the drink600 test set (n=120) and **11.30** on the GermanQUAD test set. 
Thus, fine-tuning on drink600 did not affect performance on GermanQuAD.

In comparison, *german-qg-t5-quad* achieves a BLEU-4 score of **10.76** on the drink600 test set.
