# BART (large-sized model) 

BART model pre-trained on English language. It was introduced in the paper [BART: Denoising Sequence-to-Sequence Pre-training for Natural Language Generation, Translation, and Comprehension](https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.13461) by Lewis et al. and first released in [this repository](https://github.com/pytorch/fairseq/tree/master/examples/bart). 

Disclaimer: The team releasing BART did not write a model card for this model so this model card has been written by the Hugging Face team.

## Model description

BART is a transformer encoder-decoder (seq2seq) model with a bidirectional (BERT-like) encoder and an autoregressive (GPT-like) decoder. BART is pre-trained by (1) corrupting text with an arbitrary noising function, and (2) learning a model to reconstruct the original text.

BART is particularly effective when fine-tuned for text generation (e.g. summarization, translation) but also works well for comprehension tasks (e.g. text classification, question answering).

## Intended uses & limitations

You can use the raw model for text infilling. However, the model is mostly meant to be fine-tuned on a supervised dataset. See the [model hub](https://huggingface.co/models?search=bart) to look for fine-tuned versions on a task that interests you.

### How to use

Here is how to use this model in PyTorch:

```python
from transformers import BartTokenizer, BartModel

tokenizer = BartTokenizer.from_pretrained('facebook/bart-large')
model = BartModel.from_pretrained('facebook/bart-large')

inputs = tokenizer("Hello, my dog is cute", return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model(**inputs)

last_hidden_states = outputs.last_hidden_state
```
