Tokenizer

A tokenizer is in charge of preparing the inputs for a model. The library contains tokenizers for all the models. Most of the tokenizers are available in two flavors: a full python implementation and a “Fast” implementation based on the Rust library 🤗 Tokenizers. The “Fast” implementations allows:

  1. a significant speed-up in particular when doing batched tokenization and
  2. additional methods to map between the original string (character and words) and the token space (e.g. getting the index of the token comprising a given character or the span of characters corresponding to a given token).

The base classes PreTrainedTokenizer and PreTrainedTokenizerFast implement the common methods for encoding string inputs in model inputs (see below) and instantiating/saving python and “Fast” tokenizers either from a local file or directory or from a pretrained tokenizer provided by the library (downloaded from HuggingFace’s AWS S3 repository). They both rely on PreTrainedTokenizerBase that contains the common methods, and SpecialTokensMixin.

PreTrainedTokenizer and PreTrainedTokenizerFast thus implement the main methods for using all the tokenizers:

  • Tokenizing (splitting strings in sub-word token strings), converting tokens strings to ids and back, and encoding/decoding (i.e., tokenizing and converting to integers).
  • Adding new tokens to the vocabulary in a way that is independent of the underlying structure (BPE, SentencePiece…).
  • Managing special tokens (like mask, beginning-of-sentence, etc.): adding them, assigning them to attributes in the tokenizer for easy access and making sure they are not split during tokenization.

BatchEncoding holds the output of the PreTrainedTokenizerBase’s encoding methods (__call__, encode_plus and batch_encode_plus) and is derived from a Python dictionary. When the tokenizer is a pure python tokenizer, this class behaves just like a standard python dictionary and holds the various model inputs computed by these methods (input_ids, attention_mask…). When the tokenizer is a “Fast” tokenizer (i.e., backed by HuggingFace tokenizers library), this class provides in addition several advanced alignment methods which can be used to map between the original string (character and words) and the token space (e.g., getting the index of the token comprising a given character or the span of characters corresponding to a given token).

PreTrainedTokenizer

class transformers.PreTrainedTokenizer

< >

( **kwargs )

Parameters

  • model_max_length (int, optional) — The maximum length (in number of tokens) for the inputs to the transformer model. When the tokenizer is loaded with from_pretrained(), this will be set to the value stored for the associated model in max_model_input_sizes (see above). If no value is provided, will default to VERY_LARGE_INTEGER (int(1e30)).
  • padding_side (str, optional) — The side on which the model should have padding applied. Should be selected between [‘right’, ‘left’]. Default value is picked from the class attribute of the same name.
  • truncation_side (str, optional) — The side on which the model should have truncation applied. Should be selected between [‘right’, ‘left’]. Default value is picked from the class attribute of the same name.
  • chat_template (str, optional) — A Jinja template string that will be used to format lists of chat messages. See https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/chat_templating for a full description.
  • model_input_names (List[string], optional) — The list of inputs accepted by the forward pass of the model (like "token_type_ids" or "attention_mask"). Default value is picked from the class attribute of the same name.
  • bos_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token representing the beginning of a sentence. Will be associated to self.bos_token and self.bos_token_id.
  • eos_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token representing the end of a sentence. Will be associated to self.eos_token and self.eos_token_id.
  • unk_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token representing an out-of-vocabulary token. Will be associated to self.unk_token and self.unk_token_id.
  • sep_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token separating two different sentences in the same input (used by BERT for instance). Will be associated to self.sep_token and self.sep_token_id.
  • pad_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token used to make arrays of tokens the same size for batching purpose. Will then be ignored by attention mechanisms or loss computation. Will be associated to self.pad_token and self.pad_token_id.
  • cls_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token representing the class of the input (used by BERT for instance). Will be associated to self.cls_token and self.cls_token_id.
  • mask_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token representing a masked token (used by masked-language modeling pretraining objectives, like BERT). Will be associated to self.mask_token and self.mask_token_id.
  • additional_special_tokens (tuple or list of str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A tuple or a list of additional special tokens. Add them here to ensure they are skipped when decoding with skip_special_tokens is set to True. If they are not part of the vocabulary, they will be added at the end of the vocabulary.
  • clean_up_tokenization_spaces (bool, optional, defaults to True) — Whether or not the model should cleanup the spaces that were added when splitting the input text during the tokenization process.
  • split_special_tokens (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not the special tokens should be split during the tokenization process. Passing will affect the internal state of the tokenizer. The default behavior is to not split special tokens. This means that if <s> is the bos_token, then tokenizer.tokenize("<s>") = ['<s>]. Otherwise, if split_special_tokens=True, then tokenizer.tokenize("<s>") will be give ['<','s', '>'].

Base class for all slow tokenizers.

Inherits from PreTrainedTokenizerBase.

Handle all the shared methods for tokenization and special tokens as well as methods downloading/caching/loading pretrained tokenizers as well as adding tokens to the vocabulary.

This class also contain the added tokens in a unified way on top of all tokenizers so we don’t have to handle the specific vocabulary augmentation methods of the various underlying dictionary structures (BPE, sentencepiece…).

Class attributes (overridden by derived classes)

  • vocab_files_names (Dict[str, str]) — A dictionary with, as keys, the __init__ keyword name of each vocabulary file required by the model, and as associated values, the filename for saving the associated file (string).
  • pretrained_vocab_files_map (Dict[str, Dict[str, str]]) — A dictionary of dictionaries, with the high-level keys being the __init__ keyword name of each vocabulary file required by the model, the low-level being the short-cut-names of the pretrained models with, as associated values, the url to the associated pretrained vocabulary file.
  • model_input_names (List[str]) — A list of inputs expected in the forward pass of the model.
  • padding_side (str) — The default value for the side on which the model should have padding applied. Should be 'right' or 'left'.
  • truncation_side (str) — The default value for the side on which the model should have truncation applied. Should be 'right' or 'left'.

Parameters

  • text (str, List[str], List[List[str]], optional) — The sequence or batch of sequences to be encoded. Each sequence can be a string or a list of strings (pretokenized string). If the sequences are provided as list of strings (pretokenized), you must set is_split_into_words=True (to lift the ambiguity with a batch of sequences).
  • text_pair (str, List[str], List[List[str]], optional) — The sequence or batch of sequences to be encoded. Each sequence can be a string or a list of strings (pretokenized string). If the sequences are provided as list of strings (pretokenized), you must set is_split_into_words=True (to lift the ambiguity with a batch of sequences).
  • text_target (str, List[str], List[List[str]], optional) — The sequence or batch of sequences to be encoded as target texts. Each sequence can be a string or a list of strings (pretokenized string). If the sequences are provided as list of strings (pretokenized), you must set is_split_into_words=True (to lift the ambiguity with a batch of sequences).
  • text_pair_target (str, List[str], List[List[str]], optional) — The sequence or batch of sequences to be encoded as target texts. Each sequence can be a string or a list of strings (pretokenized string). If the sequences are provided as list of strings (pretokenized), you must set is_split_into_words=True (to lift the ambiguity with a batch of sequences).
  • add_special_tokens (bool, optional, defaults to True) — Whether or not to add special tokens when encoding the sequences. This will use the underlying PretrainedTokenizerBase.build_inputs_with_special_tokens function, which defines which tokens are automatically added to the input ids. This is usefull if you want to add bos or eos tokens automatically.
  • padding (bool, str or PaddingStrategy, optional, defaults to False) — Activates and controls padding. Accepts the following values:

    • True or 'longest': Pad to the longest sequence in the batch (or no padding if only a single sequence if provided).
    • 'max_length': Pad to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided.
    • False or 'do_not_pad' (default): No padding (i.e., can output a batch with sequences of different lengths).
  • truncation (bool, str or TruncationStrategy, optional, defaults to False) — Activates and controls truncation. Accepts the following values:

    • True or 'longest_first': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will truncate token by token, removing a token from the longest sequence in the pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • 'only_first': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will only truncate the first sequence of a pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • 'only_second': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will only truncate the second sequence of a pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • False or 'do_not_truncate' (default): No truncation (i.e., can output batch with sequence lengths greater than the model maximum admissible input size).
  • max_length (int, optional) — Controls the maximum length to use by one of the truncation/padding parameters.

    If left unset or set to None, this will use the predefined model maximum length if a maximum length is required by one of the truncation/padding parameters. If the model has no specific maximum input length (like XLNet) truncation/padding to a maximum length will be deactivated.

  • stride (int, optional, defaults to 0) — If set to a number along with max_length, the overflowing tokens returned when return_overflowing_tokens=True will contain some tokens from the end of the truncated sequence returned to provide some overlap between truncated and overflowing sequences. The value of this argument defines the number of overlapping tokens.
  • is_split_into_words (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not the input is already pre-tokenized (e.g., split into words). If set to True, the tokenizer assumes the input is already split into words (for instance, by splitting it on whitespace) which it will tokenize. This is useful for NER or token classification.
  • pad_to_multiple_of (int, optional) — If set will pad the sequence to a multiple of the provided value. Requires padding to be activated. This is especially useful to enable the use of Tensor Cores on NVIDIA hardware with compute capability >= 7.5 (Volta).
  • padding_side (str, optional) — The side on which the model should have padding applied. Should be selected between [‘right’, ‘left’]. Default value is picked from the class attribute of the same name.
  • return_tensors (str or TensorType, optional) — If set, will return tensors instead of list of python integers. Acceptable values are:

    • 'tf': Return TensorFlow tf.constant objects.
    • 'pt': Return PyTorch torch.Tensor objects.
    • 'np': Return Numpy np.ndarray objects.
  • return_token_type_ids (bool, optional) — Whether to return token type IDs. If left to the default, will return the token type IDs according to the specific tokenizer’s default, defined by the return_outputs attribute.

    What are token type IDs?

  • return_attention_mask (bool, optional) — Whether to return the attention mask. If left to the default, will return the attention mask according to the specific tokenizer’s default, defined by the return_outputs attribute.

    What are attention masks?

  • return_overflowing_tokens (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not to return overflowing token sequences. If a pair of sequences of input ids (or a batch of pairs) is provided with truncation_strategy = longest_first or True, an error is raised instead of returning overflowing tokens.
  • return_special_tokens_mask (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not to return special tokens mask information.
  • return_offsets_mapping (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not to return (char_start, char_end) for each token.

    This is only available on fast tokenizers inheriting from PreTrainedTokenizerFast, if using Python’s tokenizer, this method will raise NotImplementedError.

  • return_length (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not to return the lengths of the encoded inputs.
  • verbose (bool, optional, defaults to True) — Whether or not to print more information and warnings. **kwargs — passed to the self.tokenize() method

Returns

BatchEncoding

A BatchEncoding with the following fields:

  • input_ids — List of token ids to be fed to a model.

    What are input IDs?

  • token_type_ids — List of token type ids to be fed to a model (when return_token_type_ids=True or if “token_type_ids” is in self.model_input_names).

    What are token type IDs?

  • attention_mask — List of indices specifying which tokens should be attended to by the model (when return_attention_mask=True or if “attention_mask” is in self.model_input_names).

    What are attention masks?

  • overflowing_tokens — List of overflowing tokens sequences (when a max_length is specified and return_overflowing_tokens=True).

  • num_truncated_tokens — Number of tokens truncated (when a max_length is specified and return_overflowing_tokens=True).

  • special_tokens_mask — List of 0s and 1s, with 1 specifying added special tokens and 0 specifying regular sequence tokens (when add_special_tokens=True and return_special_tokens_mask=True).

  • length — The length of the inputs (when return_length=True)

Main method to tokenize and prepare for the model one or several sequence(s) or one or several pair(s) of sequences.

add_tokens

< >

( new_tokens: Union special_tokens: bool = False ) → int

Parameters

  • new_tokens (str, tokenizers.AddedToken or a list of str or tokenizers.AddedToken) — Tokens are only added if they are not already in the vocabulary. tokenizers.AddedToken wraps a string token to let you personalize its behavior: whether this token should only match against a single word, whether this token should strip all potential whitespaces on the left side, whether this token should strip all potential whitespaces on the right side, etc.
  • special_tokens (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Can be used to specify if the token is a special token. This mostly change the normalization behavior (special tokens like CLS or [MASK] are usually not lower-cased for instance).

    See details for tokenizers.AddedToken in HuggingFace tokenizers library.

Returns

int

Number of tokens added to the vocabulary.

Add a list of new tokens to the tokenizer class. If the new tokens are not in the vocabulary, they are added to it with indices starting from length of the current vocabulary and and will be isolated before the tokenization algorithm is applied. Added tokens and tokens from the vocabulary of the tokenization algorithm are therefore not treated in the same way.

Note, when adding new tokens to the vocabulary, you should make sure to also resize the token embedding matrix of the model so that its embedding matrix matches the tokenizer.

In order to do that, please use the resize_token_embeddings() method.

Examples:

# Let's see how to increase the vocabulary of Bert model and tokenizer
tokenizer = BertTokenizerFast.from_pretrained("google-bert/bert-base-uncased")
model = BertModel.from_pretrained("google-bert/bert-base-uncased")

num_added_toks = tokenizer.add_tokens(["new_tok1", "my_new-tok2"])
print("We have added", num_added_toks, "tokens")
# Notice: resize_token_embeddings expect to receive the full size of the new vocabulary, i.e., the length of the tokenizer.
model.resize_token_embeddings(len(tokenizer))

add_special_tokens

< >

( special_tokens_dict: Dict replace_additional_special_tokens = True ) → int

Parameters

  • special_tokens_dict (dictionary str to str or tokenizers.AddedToken) — Keys should be in the list of predefined special attributes: [bos_token, eos_token, unk_token, sep_token, pad_token, cls_token, mask_token, additional_special_tokens].

    Tokens are only added if they are not already in the vocabulary (tested by checking if the tokenizer assign the index of the unk_token to them).

  • replace_additional_special_tokens (bool, optional,, defaults to True) — If True, the existing list of additional special tokens will be replaced by the list provided in special_tokens_dict. Otherwise, self._additional_special_tokens is just extended. In the former case, the tokens will NOT be removed from the tokenizer’s full vocabulary - they are only being flagged as non-special tokens. Remember, this only affects which tokens are skipped during decoding, not the added_tokens_encoder and added_tokens_decoder. This means that the previous additional_special_tokens are still added tokens, and will not be split by the model.

Returns

int

Number of tokens added to the vocabulary.

Add a dictionary of special tokens (eos, pad, cls, etc.) to the encoder and link them to class attributes. If special tokens are NOT in the vocabulary, they are added to it (indexed starting from the last index of the current vocabulary).

When adding new tokens to the vocabulary, you should make sure to also resize the token embedding matrix of the model so that its embedding matrix matches the tokenizer.

In order to do that, please use the resize_token_embeddings() method.

Using add_special_tokens will ensure your special tokens can be used in several ways:

  • Special tokens can be skipped when decoding using skip_special_tokens = True.
  • Special tokens are carefully handled by the tokenizer (they are never split), similar to AddedTokens.
  • You can easily refer to special tokens using tokenizer class attributes like tokenizer.cls_token. This makes it easy to develop model-agnostic training and fine-tuning scripts.

When possible, special tokens are already registered for provided pretrained models (for instance BertTokenizer cls_token is already registered to be :obj’[CLS]’ and XLM’s one is also registered to be '</s>').

Examples:

# Let's see how to add a new classification token to GPT-2
tokenizer = GPT2Tokenizer.from_pretrained("openai-community/gpt2")
model = GPT2Model.from_pretrained("openai-community/gpt2")

special_tokens_dict = {"cls_token": "<CLS>"}

num_added_toks = tokenizer.add_special_tokens(special_tokens_dict)
print("We have added", num_added_toks, "tokens")
# Notice: resize_token_embeddings expect to receive the full size of the new vocabulary, i.e., the length of the tokenizer.
model.resize_token_embeddings(len(tokenizer))

assert tokenizer.cls_token == "<CLS>"

( conversation: Union tools: Optional = None documents: Optional = None chat_template: Optional = None add_generation_prompt: bool = False continue_final_message: bool = False tokenize: bool = True padding: bool = False truncation: bool = False max_length: Optional = None return_tensors: Union = None return_dict: bool = False return_assistant_tokens_mask: bool = False tokenizer_kwargs: Optional = None **kwargs ) → Union[List[int], Dict]

Parameters

  • conversation (Union[List[Dict[str, str]], List[List[Dict[str, str]]]]) — A list of dicts with “role” and “content” keys, representing the chat history so far.
  • tools (List[Dict], optional) — A list of tools (callable functions) that will be accessible to the model. If the template does not support function calling, this argument will have no effect. Each tool should be passed as a JSON Schema, giving the name, description and argument types for the tool. See our chat templating guide for more information.
  • documents (List[Dict[str, str]], optional) — A list of dicts representing documents that will be accessible to the model if it is performing RAG (retrieval-augmented generation). If the template does not support RAG, this argument will have no effect. We recommend that each document should be a dict containing “title” and “text” keys. Please see the RAG section of the chat templating guide for examples of passing documents with chat templates.
  • chat_template (str, optional) — A Jinja template to use for this conversion. It is usually not necessary to pass anything to this argument, as the model’s template will be used by default.
  • add_generation_prompt (bool, optional) — If this is set, a prompt with the token(s) that indicate the start of an assistant message will be appended to the formatted output. This is useful when you want to generate a response from the model. Note that this argument will be passed to the chat template, and so it must be supported in the template for this argument to have any effect.
  • continue_final_message (bool, optional) — If this is set, the chat will be formatted so that the final message in the chat is open-ended, without any EOS tokens. The model will continue this message rather than starting a new one. This allows you to “prefill” part of the model’s response for it. Cannot be used at the same time as add_generation_prompt.
  • tokenize (bool, defaults to True) — Whether to tokenize the output. If False, the output will be a string.
  • padding (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to pad sequences to the maximum length. Has no effect if tokenize is False.
  • truncation (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to truncate sequences at the maximum length. Has no effect if tokenize is False.
  • max_length (int, optional) — Maximum length (in tokens) to use for padding or truncation. Has no effect if tokenize is False. If not specified, the tokenizer’s max_length attribute will be used as a default.
  • return_tensors (str or TensorType, optional) — If set, will return tensors of a particular framework. Has no effect if tokenize is False. Acceptable values are:
    • 'tf': Return TensorFlow tf.Tensor objects.
    • 'pt': Return PyTorch torch.Tensor objects.
    • 'np': Return NumPy np.ndarray objects.
    • 'jax': Return JAX jnp.ndarray objects.
  • return_dict (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to return a dictionary with named outputs. Has no effect if tokenize is False.
  • tokenizer_kwargs (Dict[str -- Any], optional): Additional kwargs to pass to the tokenizer.
  • return_assistant_tokens_mask (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to return a mask of the assistant generated tokens. For tokens generated by the assistant, the mask will contain 1. For user and system tokens, the mask will contain 0. This functionality is only available for chat templates that support it via the {% generation %} keyword. **kwargs — Additional kwargs to pass to the template renderer. Will be accessible by the chat template.

Returns

Union[List[int], Dict]

A list of token ids representing the tokenized chat so far, including control tokens. This output is ready to pass to the model, either directly or via methods like generate(). If return_dict is set, will return a dict of tokenizer outputs instead.

Converts a list of dictionaries with "role" and "content" keys to a list of token ids. This method is intended for use with chat models, and will read the tokenizer’s chat_template attribute to determine the format and control tokens to use when converting.

encode

< >

( text: Union text_pair: Union = None add_special_tokens: bool = True padding: Union = False truncation: Union = None max_length: Optional = None stride: int = 0 padding_side: Optional = None return_tensors: Union = None **kwargs ) → List[int], torch.Tensor, tf.Tensor or np.ndarray

Parameters

  • text (str, List[str] or List[int]) — The first sequence to be encoded. This can be a string, a list of strings (tokenized string using the tokenize method) or a list of integers (tokenized string ids using the convert_tokens_to_ids method).
  • text_pair (str, List[str] or List[int], optional) — Optional second sequence to be encoded. This can be a string, a list of strings (tokenized string using the tokenize method) or a list of integers (tokenized string ids using the convert_tokens_to_ids method).
  • add_special_tokens (bool, optional, defaults to True) — Whether or not to add special tokens when encoding the sequences. This will use the underlying PretrainedTokenizerBase.build_inputs_with_special_tokens function, which defines which tokens are automatically added to the input ids. This is usefull if you want to add bos or eos tokens automatically.
  • padding (bool, str or PaddingStrategy, optional, defaults to False) — Activates and controls padding. Accepts the following values:

    • True or 'longest': Pad to the longest sequence in the batch (or no padding if only a single sequence if provided).
    • 'max_length': Pad to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided.
    • False or 'do_not_pad' (default): No padding (i.e., can output a batch with sequences of different lengths).
  • truncation (bool, str or TruncationStrategy, optional, defaults to False) — Activates and controls truncation. Accepts the following values:

    • True or 'longest_first': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will truncate token by token, removing a token from the longest sequence in the pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • 'only_first': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will only truncate the first sequence of a pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • 'only_second': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will only truncate the second sequence of a pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • False or 'do_not_truncate' (default): No truncation (i.e., can output batch with sequence lengths greater than the model maximum admissible input size).
  • max_length (int, optional) — Controls the maximum length to use by one of the truncation/padding parameters.

    If left unset or set to None, this will use the predefined model maximum length if a maximum length is required by one of the truncation/padding parameters. If the model has no specific maximum input length (like XLNet) truncation/padding to a maximum length will be deactivated.

  • stride (int, optional, defaults to 0) — If set to a number along with max_length, the overflowing tokens returned when return_overflowing_tokens=True will contain some tokens from the end of the truncated sequence returned to provide some overlap between truncated and overflowing sequences. The value of this argument defines the number of overlapping tokens.
  • is_split_into_words (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not the input is already pre-tokenized (e.g., split into words). If set to True, the tokenizer assumes the input is already split into words (for instance, by splitting it on whitespace) which it will tokenize. This is useful for NER or token classification.
  • pad_to_multiple_of (int, optional) — If set will pad the sequence to a multiple of the provided value. Requires padding to be activated. This is especially useful to enable the use of Tensor Cores on NVIDIA hardware with compute capability >= 7.5 (Volta).
  • padding_side (str, optional) — The side on which the model should have padding applied. Should be selected between [‘right’, ‘left’]. Default value is picked from the class attribute of the same name.
  • return_tensors (str or TensorType, optional) — If set, will return tensors instead of list of python integers. Acceptable values are:

    • 'tf': Return TensorFlow tf.constant objects.
    • 'pt': Return PyTorch torch.Tensor objects.
    • 'np': Return Numpy np.ndarray objects.

    **kwargs — Passed along to the .tokenize() method.

Parameters

  • repo_id (str) — The name of the repository you want to push your tokenizer to. It should contain your organization name when pushing to a given organization.
  • use_temp_dir (bool, optional) — Whether or not to use a temporary directory to store the files saved before they are pushed to the Hub. Will default to True if there is no directory named like repo_id, False otherwise.
  • commit_message (str, optional) — Message to commit while pushing. Will default to "Upload tokenizer".
  • private (bool, optional) — Whether or not the repository created should be private.
  • token (bool or str, optional) — The token to use as HTTP bearer authorization for remote files. If True, will use the token generated when running huggingface-cli login (stored in ~/.huggingface). Will default to True if repo_url is not specified.
  • max_shard_size (int or str, optional, defaults to "5GB") — Only applicable for models. The maximum size for a checkpoint before being sharded. Checkpoints shard will then be each of size lower than this size. If expressed as a string, needs to be digits followed by a unit (like "5MB"). We default it to "5GB" so that users can easily load models on free-tier Google Colab instances without any CPU OOM issues.
  • create_pr (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not to create a PR with the uploaded files or directly commit.
  • safe_serialization (bool, optional, defaults to True) — Whether or not to convert the model weights in safetensors format for safer serialization.
  • revision (str, optional) — Branch to push the uploaded files to.
  • commit_description (str, optional) — The description of the commit that will be created
  • tags (List[str], optional) — List of tags to push on the Hub.

Upload the tokenizer files to the 🤗 Model Hub.

Examples:

from transformers import AutoTokenizer

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google-bert/bert-base-cased")

# Push the tokenizer to your namespace with the name "my-finetuned-bert".
tokenizer.push_to_hub("my-finetuned-bert")

# Push the tokenizer to an organization with the name "my-finetuned-bert".
tokenizer.push_to_hub("huggingface/my-finetuned-bert")

convert_ids_to_tokens

< >

( ids: Union skip_special_tokens: bool = False ) → str or List[str]

Parameters

  • ids (int or List[int]) — The token id (or token ids) to convert to tokens.
  • skip_special_tokens (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not to remove special tokens in the decoding.

Returns

str or List[str]

The decoded token(s).

Converts a single index or a sequence of indices in a token or a sequence of tokens, using the vocabulary and added tokens.

convert_tokens_to_ids

< >

( tokens: Union ) → int or List[int]

Parameters

  • tokens (str or List[str]) — One or several token(s) to convert to token id(s).

Returns

int or List[int]

The token id or list of token ids.

Converts a token string (or a sequence of tokens) in a single integer id (or a sequence of ids), using the vocabulary.

get_added_vocab

< >

( ) → Dict[str, int]

Returns

Dict[str, int]

The added tokens.

Returns the added tokens in the vocabulary as a dictionary of token to index. Results might be different from the fast call because for now we always add the tokens even if they are already in the vocabulary. This is something we should change.

num_special_tokens_to_add

< >

( pair: bool = False ) → int

Parameters

  • pair (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether the number of added tokens should be computed in the case of a sequence pair or a single sequence.

Returns

int

Number of special tokens added to sequences.

Returns the number of added tokens when encoding a sequence with special tokens.

This encodes a dummy input and checks the number of added tokens, and is therefore not efficient. Do not put this inside your training loop.

prepare_for_tokenization

< >

( text: str is_split_into_words: bool = False **kwargs ) → Tuple[str, Dict[str, Any]]

Parameters

  • text (str) — The text to prepare.
  • is_split_into_words (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not the input is already pre-tokenized (e.g., split into words). If set to True, the tokenizer assumes the input is already split into words (for instance, by splitting it on whitespace) which it will tokenize. This is useful for NER or token classification.
  • kwargs (Dict[str, Any], optional) — Keyword arguments to use for the tokenization.

Returns

Tuple[str, Dict[str, Any]]

The prepared text and the unused kwargs.

Performs any necessary transformations before tokenization.

This method should pop the arguments from kwargs and return the remaining kwargs as well. We test the kwargs at the end of the encoding process to be sure all the arguments have been used.

tokenize

< >

( text: str **kwargs ) → List[str]

Parameters

  • text (str) — The sequence to be encoded.
  • **kwargs (additional keyword arguments) — Passed along to the model-specific prepare_for_tokenization preprocessing method.

Returns

List[str]

The list of tokens.

Converts a string into a sequence of tokens, using the tokenizer.

Split in words for word-based vocabulary or sub-words for sub-word-based vocabularies (BPE/SentencePieces/WordPieces). Takes care of added tokens.

PreTrainedTokenizerFast

The PreTrainedTokenizerFast depend on the tokenizers library. The tokenizers obtained from the 🤗 tokenizers library can be loaded very simply into 🤗 transformers. Take a look at the Using tokenizers from 🤗 tokenizers page to understand how this is done.

class transformers.PreTrainedTokenizerFast

< >

( *args **kwargs )

Parameters

  • model_max_length (int, optional) — The maximum length (in number of tokens) for the inputs to the transformer model. When the tokenizer is loaded with from_pretrained(), this will be set to the value stored for the associated model in max_model_input_sizes (see above). If no value is provided, will default to VERY_LARGE_INTEGER (int(1e30)).
  • padding_side (str, optional) — The side on which the model should have padding applied. Should be selected between [‘right’, ‘left’]. Default value is picked from the class attribute of the same name.
  • truncation_side (str, optional) — The side on which the model should have truncation applied. Should be selected between [‘right’, ‘left’]. Default value is picked from the class attribute of the same name.
  • chat_template (str, optional) — A Jinja template string that will be used to format lists of chat messages. See https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/chat_templating for a full description.
  • model_input_names (List[string], optional) — The list of inputs accepted by the forward pass of the model (like "token_type_ids" or "attention_mask"). Default value is picked from the class attribute of the same name.
  • bos_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token representing the beginning of a sentence. Will be associated to self.bos_token and self.bos_token_id.
  • eos_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token representing the end of a sentence. Will be associated to self.eos_token and self.eos_token_id.
  • unk_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token representing an out-of-vocabulary token. Will be associated to self.unk_token and self.unk_token_id.
  • sep_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token separating two different sentences in the same input (used by BERT for instance). Will be associated to self.sep_token and self.sep_token_id.
  • pad_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token used to make arrays of tokens the same size for batching purpose. Will then be ignored by attention mechanisms or loss computation. Will be associated to self.pad_token and self.pad_token_id.
  • cls_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token representing the class of the input (used by BERT for instance). Will be associated to self.cls_token and self.cls_token_id.
  • mask_token (str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A special token representing a masked token (used by masked-language modeling pretraining objectives, like BERT). Will be associated to self.mask_token and self.mask_token_id.
  • additional_special_tokens (tuple or list of str or tokenizers.AddedToken, optional) — A tuple or a list of additional special tokens. Add them here to ensure they are skipped when decoding with skip_special_tokens is set to True. If they are not part of the vocabulary, they will be added at the end of the vocabulary.
  • clean_up_tokenization_spaces (bool, optional, defaults to True) — Whether or not the model should cleanup the spaces that were added when splitting the input text during the tokenization process.
  • split_special_tokens (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not the special tokens should be split during the tokenization process. Passing will affect the internal state of the tokenizer. The default behavior is to not split special tokens. This means that if <s> is the bos_token, then tokenizer.tokenize("<s>") = ['<s>]. Otherwise, if split_special_tokens=True, then tokenizer.tokenize("<s>") will be give ['<','s', '>'].
  • tokenizer_object (tokenizers.Tokenizer) — A tokenizers.Tokenizer object from 🤗 tokenizers to instantiate from. See Using tokenizers from 🤗 tokenizers for more information.
  • tokenizer_file (str) — A path to a local JSON file representing a previously serialized tokenizers.Tokenizer object from 🤗 tokenizers.

Base class for all fast tokenizers (wrapping HuggingFace tokenizers library).

Inherits from PreTrainedTokenizerBase.

Handles all the shared methods for tokenization and special tokens, as well as methods for downloading/caching/loading pretrained tokenizers, as well as adding tokens to the vocabulary.

This class also contains the added tokens in a unified way on top of all tokenizers so we don’t have to handle the specific vocabulary augmentation methods of the various underlying dictionary structures (BPE, sentencepiece…).

  • model_input_names (List[str]) — A list of inputs expected in the forward pass of the model.
  • padding_side (str) — The default value for the side on which the model should have padding applied. Should be 'right' or 'left'.
  • truncation_side (str) — The default value for the side on which the model should have truncation applied. Should be 'right' or 'left'.

Parameters

  • text (str, List[str], List[List[str]], optional) — The sequence or batch of sequences to be encoded. Each sequence can be a string or a list of strings (pretokenized string). If the sequences are provided as list of strings (pretokenized), you must set is_split_into_words=True (to lift the ambiguity with a batch of sequences).
  • text_pair (str, List[str], List[List[str]], optional) — The sequence or batch of sequences to be encoded. Each sequence can be a string or a list of strings (pretokenized string). If the sequences are provided as list of strings (pretokenized), you must set is_split_into_words=True (to lift the ambiguity with a batch of sequences).
  • text_target (str, List[str], List[List[str]], optional) — The sequence or batch of sequences to be encoded as target texts. Each sequence can be a string or a list of strings (pretokenized string). If the sequences are provided as list of strings (pretokenized), you must set is_split_into_words=True (to lift the ambiguity with a batch of sequences).
  • text_pair_target (str, List[str], List[List[str]], optional) — The sequence or batch of sequences to be encoded as target texts. Each sequence can be a string or a list of strings (pretokenized string). If the sequences are provided as list of strings (pretokenized), you must set is_split_into_words=True (to lift the ambiguity with a batch of sequences).
  • add_special_tokens (bool, optional, defaults to True) — Whether or not to add special tokens when encoding the sequences. This will use the underlying PretrainedTokenizerBase.build_inputs_with_special_tokens function, which defines which tokens are automatically added to the input ids. This is usefull if you want to add bos or eos tokens automatically.
  • padding (bool, str or PaddingStrategy, optional, defaults to False) — Activates and controls padding. Accepts the following values:

    • True or 'longest': Pad to the longest sequence in the batch (or no padding if only a single sequence if provided).
    • 'max_length': Pad to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided.
    • False or 'do_not_pad' (default): No padding (i.e., can output a batch with sequences of different lengths).
  • truncation (bool, str or TruncationStrategy, optional, defaults to False) — Activates and controls truncation. Accepts the following values:

    • True or 'longest_first': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will truncate token by token, removing a token from the longest sequence in the pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • 'only_first': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will only truncate the first sequence of a pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • 'only_second': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will only truncate the second sequence of a pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • False or 'do_not_truncate' (default): No truncation (i.e., can output batch with sequence lengths greater than the model maximum admissible input size).
  • max_length (int, optional) — Controls the maximum length to use by one of the truncation/padding parameters.

    If left unset or set to None, this will use the predefined model maximum length if a maximum length is required by one of the truncation/padding parameters. If the model has no specific maximum input length (like XLNet) truncation/padding to a maximum length will be deactivated.

  • stride (int, optional, defaults to 0) — If set to a number along with max_length, the overflowing tokens returned when return_overflowing_tokens=True will contain some tokens from the end of the truncated sequence returned to provide some overlap between truncated and overflowing sequences. The value of this argument defines the number of overlapping tokens.
  • is_split_into_words (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not the input is already pre-tokenized (e.g., split into words). If set to True, the tokenizer assumes the input is already split into words (for instance, by splitting it on whitespace) which it will tokenize. This is useful for NER or token classification.
  • pad_to_multiple_of (int, optional) — If set will pad the sequence to a multiple of the provided value. Requires padding to be activated. This is especially useful to enable the use of Tensor Cores on NVIDIA hardware with compute capability >= 7.5 (Volta).
  • padding_side (str, optional) — The side on which the model should have padding applied. Should be selected between [‘right’, ‘left’]. Default value is picked from the class attribute of the same name.
  • return_tensors (str or TensorType, optional) — If set, will return tensors instead of list of python integers. Acceptable values are:

    • 'tf': Return TensorFlow tf.constant objects.
    • 'pt': Return PyTorch torch.Tensor objects.
    • 'np': Return Numpy np.ndarray objects.
  • return_token_type_ids (bool, optional) — Whether to return token type IDs. If left to the default, will return the token type IDs according to the specific tokenizer’s default, defined by the return_outputs attribute.

    What are token type IDs?

  • return_attention_mask (bool, optional) — Whether to return the attention mask. If left to the default, will return the attention mask according to the specific tokenizer’s default, defined by the return_outputs attribute.

    What are attention masks?

  • return_overflowing_tokens (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not to return overflowing token sequences. If a pair of sequences of input ids (or a batch of pairs) is provided with truncation_strategy = longest_first or True, an error is raised instead of returning overflowing tokens.
  • return_special_tokens_mask (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not to return special tokens mask information.
  • return_offsets_mapping (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not to return (char_start, char_end) for each token.

    This is only available on fast tokenizers inheriting from PreTrainedTokenizerFast, if using Python’s tokenizer, this method will raise NotImplementedError.

  • return_length (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not to return the lengths of the encoded inputs.
  • verbose (bool, optional, defaults to True) — Whether or not to print more information and warnings. **kwargs — passed to the self.tokenize() method

Returns

BatchEncoding

A BatchEncoding with the following fields:

  • input_ids — List of token ids to be fed to a model.

    What are input IDs?

  • token_type_ids — List of token type ids to be fed to a model (when return_token_type_ids=True or if “token_type_ids” is in self.model_input_names).

    What are token type IDs?

  • attention_mask — List of indices specifying which tokens should be attended to by the model (when return_attention_mask=True or if “attention_mask” is in self.model_input_names).

    What are attention masks?

  • overflowing_tokens — List of overflowing tokens sequences (when a max_length is specified and return_overflowing_tokens=True).

  • num_truncated_tokens — Number of tokens truncated (when a max_length is specified and return_overflowing_tokens=True).

  • special_tokens_mask — List of 0s and 1s, with 1 specifying added special tokens and 0 specifying regular sequence tokens (when add_special_tokens=True and return_special_tokens_mask=True).

  • length — The length of the inputs (when return_length=True)

Main method to tokenize and prepare for the model one or several sequence(s) or one or several pair(s) of sequences.

add_tokens

< >

( new_tokens: Union special_tokens: bool = False ) → int

Parameters

  • new_tokens (str, tokenizers.AddedToken or a list of str or tokenizers.AddedToken) — Tokens are only added if they are not already in the vocabulary. tokenizers.AddedToken wraps a string token to let you personalize its behavior: whether this token should only match against a single word, whether this token should strip all potential whitespaces on the left side, whether this token should strip all potential whitespaces on the right side, etc.
  • special_tokens (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Can be used to specify if the token is a special token. This mostly change the normalization behavior (special tokens like CLS or [MASK] are usually not lower-cased for instance).

    See details for tokenizers.AddedToken in HuggingFace tokenizers library.

Returns

int

Number of tokens added to the vocabulary.

Add a list of new tokens to the tokenizer class. If the new tokens are not in the vocabulary, they are added to it with indices starting from length of the current vocabulary and and will be isolated before the tokenization algorithm is applied. Added tokens and tokens from the vocabulary of the tokenization algorithm are therefore not treated in the same way.

Note, when adding new tokens to the vocabulary, you should make sure to also resize the token embedding matrix of the model so that its embedding matrix matches the tokenizer.

In order to do that, please use the resize_token_embeddings() method.

Examples:

# Let's see how to increase the vocabulary of Bert model and tokenizer
tokenizer = BertTokenizerFast.from_pretrained("google-bert/bert-base-uncased")
model = BertModel.from_pretrained("google-bert/bert-base-uncased")

num_added_toks = tokenizer.add_tokens(["new_tok1", "my_new-tok2"])
print("We have added", num_added_toks, "tokens")
# Notice: resize_token_embeddings expect to receive the full size of the new vocabulary, i.e., the length of the tokenizer.
model.resize_token_embeddings(len(tokenizer))

add_special_tokens

< >

( special_tokens_dict: Dict replace_additional_special_tokens = True ) → int

Parameters

  • special_tokens_dict (dictionary str to str or tokenizers.AddedToken) — Keys should be in the list of predefined special attributes: [bos_token, eos_token, unk_token, sep_token, pad_token, cls_token, mask_token, additional_special_tokens].

    Tokens are only added if they are not already in the vocabulary (tested by checking if the tokenizer assign the index of the unk_token to them).

  • replace_additional_special_tokens (bool, optional,, defaults to True) — If True, the existing list of additional special tokens will be replaced by the list provided in special_tokens_dict. Otherwise, self._additional_special_tokens is just extended. In the former case, the tokens will NOT be removed from the tokenizer’s full vocabulary - they are only being flagged as non-special tokens. Remember, this only affects which tokens are skipped during decoding, not the added_tokens_encoder and added_tokens_decoder. This means that the previous additional_special_tokens are still added tokens, and will not be split by the model.

Returns

int

Number of tokens added to the vocabulary.

Add a dictionary of special tokens (eos, pad, cls, etc.) to the encoder and link them to class attributes. If special tokens are NOT in the vocabulary, they are added to it (indexed starting from the last index of the current vocabulary).

When adding new tokens to the vocabulary, you should make sure to also resize the token embedding matrix of the model so that its embedding matrix matches the tokenizer.

In order to do that, please use the resize_token_embeddings() method.

Using add_special_tokens will ensure your special tokens can be used in several ways:

  • Special tokens can be skipped when decoding using skip_special_tokens = True.
  • Special tokens are carefully handled by the tokenizer (they are never split), similar to AddedTokens.
  • You can easily refer to special tokens using tokenizer class attributes like tokenizer.cls_token. This makes it easy to develop model-agnostic training and fine-tuning scripts.

When possible, special tokens are already registered for provided pretrained models (for instance BertTokenizer cls_token is already registered to be :obj’[CLS]’ and XLM’s one is also registered to be '</s>').

Examples:

# Let's see how to add a new classification token to GPT-2
tokenizer = GPT2Tokenizer.from_pretrained("openai-community/gpt2")
model = GPT2Model.from_pretrained("openai-community/gpt2")

special_tokens_dict = {"cls_token": "<CLS>"}

num_added_toks = tokenizer.add_special_tokens(special_tokens_dict)
print("We have added", num_added_toks, "tokens")
# Notice: resize_token_embeddings expect to receive the full size of the new vocabulary, i.e., the length of the tokenizer.
model.resize_token_embeddings(len(tokenizer))

assert tokenizer.cls_token == "<CLS>"

apply_chat_template

< >

( conversation: Union tools: Optional = None documents: Optional = None chat_template: Optional = None add_generation_prompt: bool = False continue_final_message: bool = False tokenize: bool = True padding: bool = False truncation: bool = False max_length: Optional = None return_tensors: Union = None return_dict: bool = False return_assistant_tokens_mask: bool = False tokenizer_kwargs: Optional = None **kwargs ) → Union[List[int], Dict]

Parameters

  • conversation (Union[List[Dict[str, str]], List[List[Dict[str, str]]]]) — A list of dicts with “role” and “content” keys, representing the chat history so far.
  • tools (List[Dict], optional) — A list of tools (callable functions) that will be accessible to the model. If the template does not support function calling, this argument will have no effect. Each tool should be passed as a JSON Schema, giving the name, description and argument types for the tool. See our chat templating guide for more information.
  • documents (List[Dict[str, str]], optional) — A list of dicts representing documents that will be accessible to the model if it is performing RAG (retrieval-augmented generation). If the template does not support RAG, this argument will have no effect. We recommend that each document should be a dict containing “title” and “text” keys. Please see the RAG section of the chat templating guide for examples of passing documents with chat templates.
  • chat_template (str, optional) — A Jinja template to use for this conversion. It is usually not necessary to pass anything to this argument, as the model’s template will be used by default.
  • add_generation_prompt (bool, optional) — If this is set, a prompt with the token(s) that indicate the start of an assistant message will be appended to the formatted output. This is useful when you want to generate a response from the model. Note that this argument will be passed to the chat template, and so it must be supported in the template for this argument to have any effect.
  • continue_final_message (bool, optional) — If this is set, the chat will be formatted so that the final message in the chat is open-ended, without any EOS tokens. The model will continue this message rather than starting a new one. This allows you to “prefill” part of the model’s response for it. Cannot be used at the same time as add_generation_prompt.
  • tokenize (bool, defaults to True) — Whether to tokenize the output. If False, the output will be a string.
  • padding (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to pad sequences to the maximum length. Has no effect if tokenize is False.
  • truncation (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to truncate sequences at the maximum length. Has no effect if tokenize is False.
  • max_length (int, optional) — Maximum length (in tokens) to use for padding or truncation. Has no effect if tokenize is False. If not specified, the tokenizer’s max_length attribute will be used as a default.
  • return_tensors (str or TensorType, optional) — If set, will return tensors of a particular framework. Has no effect if tokenize is False. Acceptable values are:
    • 'tf': Return TensorFlow tf.Tensor objects.
    • 'pt': Return PyTorch torch.Tensor objects.
    • 'np': Return NumPy np.ndarray objects.
    • 'jax': Return JAX jnp.ndarray objects.
  • return_dict (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to return a dictionary with named outputs. Has no effect if tokenize is False.
  • tokenizer_kwargs (Dict[str -- Any], optional): Additional kwargs to pass to the tokenizer.
  • return_assistant_tokens_mask (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to return a mask of the assistant generated tokens. For tokens generated by the assistant, the mask will contain 1. For user and system tokens, the mask will contain 0. This functionality is only available for chat templates that support it via the {% generation %} keyword. **kwargs — Additional kwargs to pass to the template renderer. Will be accessible by the chat template.

Returns

Union[List[int], Dict]

A list of token ids representing the tokenized chat so far, including control tokens. This output is ready to pass to the model, either directly or via methods like generate(). If return_dict is set, will return a dict of tokenizer outputs instead.

Converts a list of dictionaries with "role" and "content" keys to a list of token ids. This method is intended for use with chat models, and will read the tokenizer’s chat_template attribute to determine the format and control tokens to use when converting.

This will use the underlying PretrainedTokenizerBase.build_inputs_with_special_tokens function, which defines which tokens are automatically added to the input ids. This is usefull if you want to add bos or eos tokens automatically.
  • padding (bool, str or PaddingStrategy, optional, defaults to False) — Activates and controls padding. Accepts the following values:

    • True or 'longest': Pad to the longest sequence in the batch (or no padding if only a single sequence if provided).
    • 'max_length': Pad to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided.
    • False or 'do_not_pad' (default): No padding (i.e., can output a batch with sequences of different lengths).
  • truncation (bool, str or TruncationStrategy, optional, defaults to False) — Activates and controls truncation. Accepts the following values:

    • True or 'longest_first': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will truncate token by token, removing a token from the longest sequence in the pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • 'only_first': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will only truncate the first sequence of a pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • 'only_second': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will only truncate the second sequence of a pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.
    • False or 'do_not_truncate' (default): No truncation (i.e., can output batch with sequence lengths greater than the model maximum admissible input size).
  • max_length (int, optional) — Controls the maximum length to use by one of the truncation/padding parameters.

    If left unset or set to None, this will use the predefined model maximum length if a maximum length is required by one of the truncation/padding parameters. If the model has no specific maximum input length (like XLNet) truncation/padding to a maximum length will be deactivated.

  • stride (int, optional, defaults to 0) — If set to a number along with max_length, the overflowing tokens returned when return_overflowing_tokens=True will contain some tokens from the end of the truncated sequence returned to provide some overlap between truncated and overflowing sequences. The value of this argument defines the number of overlapping tokens.
  • is_split_into_words (bool, optional, defaults to False) — Whether or not the input is already pre-tokenized (e.g., split into words). If set to True, the tokenizer assumes the input is already split into words (for instance, by splitting it on whitespace) which it will tokenize. This is useful for NER or token classification.
  • pad_to_multiple_of (int, optional) — If set will pad the sequence to a multiple of the provided value. Requires padding to be activated. This is especially useful to enable the use of Tensor Cores on NVIDIA hardware with compute capability >= 7.5 (Volta).
  • padding_side (str, optional) — The side on which the model should have padding applied. Should be selected between [‘right’, ‘left’]. Default value is picked from the class attribute of the same name.
  • return_tensors (str or TensorType, optional) — If set, will return tensors instead of list of python integers. Acceptable values are:

    • 'tf': Return TensorFlow tf.constant objects.
    • 'pt': Return PyTorch torch.Tensor objects.
    • 'np': Return Numpy np.ndarray objects.

    **kwargs — Passed along to the .tokenize() method.

Returns

List[int], torch.Tensor, tf.Tensor or np.ndarray

The tokenized ids of the text.

Converts a string to a sequence of ids (integer), using the tokenizer and vocabulary.

Same as doing self.convert_tokens_to_ids(self.tokenize(text)).
