## Model Details |
|
|
|
**Model Description:** The DistilBERT model was proposed in the blog post [Smaller, faster, cheaper, lighter: Introducing DistilBERT, adistilled version of BERT](https://medium.com/huggingface/distilbert-8cf3380435b5), and the paper [DistilBERT, adistilled version of BERT: smaller, faster, cheaper and lighter](https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.01108). DistilBERT is a small, fast, cheap and light Transformer model trained by distilling BERT base. It has 40% less parameters than *bert-base-uncased*, runs 60% faster while preserving over 95% of BERT's performances as measured on the GLUE language understanding benchmark. |
|
|
|
This model is a fine-tune checkpoint of [DistilBERT-base-cased](https://huggingface.co/distilbert-base-cased), fine-tuned using (a second step of) knowledge distillation on [SQuAD v1.1](https://huggingface.co/datasets/squad). |

|
|
|
## How to Get Started with the Model |
|
|
|
Use the code below to get started with the model. |
|
|
|
```python |
|
>>> from transformers import pipeline |
|
>>> question_answerer = pipeline("question-answering", model='distilbert-base-cased-distilled-squad') |
|
|
|
>>> context = r""" |
|
... Extractive Question Answering is the task of extracting an answer from a text given a question. An example of a |
|
... question answering dataset is the SQuAD dataset, which is entirely based on that task. If you would like to fine-tune |
|
... a model on a SQuAD task, you may leverage the examples/pytorch/question-answering/run_squad.py script. |
|
... """ |
|
|
|
>>> result = question_answerer(question="What is a good example of a question answering dataset?", context=context) |
|
>>> print( |
|
... f"Answer: '{result['answer']}', score: {round(result['score'], 4)}, start: {result['start']}, end: {result['end']}" |
|
...) |
|
|
|
Answer: 'SQuAD dataset', score: 0.5152, start: 147, end: 160 |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Here is how to use this model in PyTorch: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from transformers import DistilBertTokenizer, DistilBertModel |
|
import torch |
|
tokenizer = DistilBertTokenizer.from_pretrained('distilbert-base-cased-distilled-squad') |
|
model = DistilBertModel.from_pretrained('distilbert-base-cased-distilled-squad') |
|
|
|
question, text = "Who was Jim Henson?", "Jim Henson was a nice puppet" |
|
|
|
inputs = tokenizer(question, text, return_tensors="pt") |
|
with torch.no_grad(): |
|
outputs = model(**inputs) |
|
|
|
print(outputs) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
And in TensorFlow: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from transformers import DistilBertTokenizer, TFDistilBertForQuestionAnswering |
|
import tensorflow as tf |
|
|
|
tokenizer = DistilBertTokenizer.from_pretrained("distilbert-base-cased-distilled-squad") |
|
model = TFDistilBertForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("distilbert-base-cased-distilled-squad") |
|
|
|
question, text = "Who was Jim Henson?", "Jim Henson was a nice puppet" |
|
|
|
inputs = tokenizer(question, text, return_tensors="tf") |
|
outputs = model(**inputs) |
|
|
|
answer_start_index = int(tf.math.argmax(outputs.start_logits, axis=-1)[0]) |
|
answer_end_index = int(tf.math.argmax(outputs.end_logits, axis=-1)[0]) |
|
|
|
predict_answer_tokens = inputs.input_ids[0, answer_start_index : answer_end_index + 1] |
|
tokenizer.decode(predict_answer_tokens) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## Uses |
|
|
|
This model can be used for question answering. |
|
|
|
#### Misuse and Out-of-scope Use |
|
|
|
The model should not be used to intentionally create hostile or alienating environments for people. In addition, the model was not trained to be factual or true representations of people or events, and therefore using the model to generate such content is out-of-scope for the abilities of this model. |
|
|
|
## Risks, Limitations and Biases |
|
|
|
**CONTENT WARNING: Readers should be aware that language generated by this model can be disturbing or offensive to some and can propagate historical and current stereotypes.** |
|
|
|
Significant research has explored bias and fairness issues with language models (see, e.g., [Sheng et al. (2021)](https://aclanthology.org/2021.acl-long.330.pdf) and [Bender et al. (2021)](https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3442188.3445922)). Predictions generated by the model can include disturbing and harmful stereotypes across protected classes; identity characteristics; and sensitive, social, and occupational groups. For example: |
|
|
|
|
|
```python |
|
>>> from transformers import pipeline |
|
>>> question_answerer = pipeline("question-answering", model='distilbert-base-cased-distilled-squad') |
|
|
|
>>> context = r""" |
|
... Alice is sitting on the bench. Bob is sitting next to her. |
|
... """ |
|
|
|
>>> result = question_answerer(question="Who is the CEO?", context=context) |
|
>>> print( |
|
... f"Answer: '{result['answer']}', score: {round(result['score'], 4)}, start: {result['start']}, end: {result['end']}" |
|
...) |
|
|
|
Answer: 'Bob', score: 0.7527, start: 32, end: 35 |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model. |
|
|
|
## Training |
|
|
|
#### Training Data |
|
|
|
The [distilbert-base-cased model](https://huggingface.co/distilbert-base-cased) was trained using the same data as the [distilbert-base-uncased model](https://huggingface.co/distilbert-base-uncased). The [distilbert-base-uncased model](https://huggingface.co/distilbert-base-uncased) model describes it's training data as: |
|
|
|
> DistilBERT pretrained on the same data as BERT, which is [BookCorpus](https://yknzhu.wixsite.com/mbweb), a dataset consisting of 11,038 unpublished books and [English Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Wikipedia) (excluding lists, tables and headers). |
|
|
|
