47
+ ## How to Get Started with the Model
48
+
49
+ Use the code below to get started with the model.
50
+
51
+ ```python
52
+ from transformers import DPRQuestionEncoder, DPRQuestionEncoderTokenizer
53
+
54
+ tokenizer = DPRQuestionEncoderTokenizer.from_pretrained("facebook/dpr-question_encoder-multiset-base")
55
+ model = DPRQuestionEncoder.from_pretrained("facebook/dpr-question_encoder-multiset-base")
56
+ input_ids = tokenizer("Hello, is my dog cute ?", return_tensors="pt")["input_ids"]
57
+ embeddings = model(input_ids).pooler_output
58
+ ```
59
+
60
+ ## Uses
61
+
62
+ #### Direct Use
63
+
64
+ `dpr-question_encoder-multiset-base`, [`dpr-ctx_encoder-multiset-base`](https://huggingface.co/facebook/dpr-ctx_encoder-multiset-base), and [`dpr-reader-multiset-base`](https://huggingface.co/facebook/dpr-reader-multiset-base) can be used for the task of open-domain question answering.
65
+
66
+ #### Misuse and Out-of-scope Use
67
+
68
+ The model should not be used to intentionally create hostile or alienating environments for people. In addition, the set of DPR models was not trained to be factual or true representations of people or events, and therefore using the models to generate such content is out-of-scope for the abilities of this model.
69
+
70
+ ## Risks, Limitations and Biases
71
+
72
+ **CONTENT WARNING: Readers should be aware this section may contain content that is disturbing, offensive, and can propogate historical and current stereotypes.**
73
+
74
+ 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.
75
+
76
+ ## Training
77
+
78
+ #### Training Data
79
+
80
+ This model was trained using the following datasets:
81
+ - **[Natural Questions (NQ) dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/nq_open)** ([Lee et al., 2019](https://aclanthology.org/P19-1612/); [Kwiatkowski et al., 2019](https://aclanthology.org/Q19-1026/))
82
+ - **[TriviaQA](https://huggingface.co/datasets/trivia_qa)** ([Joshi et al., 2017](https://aclanthology.org/P17-1147/))
83
+ - **[WebQuestions (WQ)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/web_questions)** ([Berant et al., 2013](https://aclanthology.org/D13-1160/))
84
+ - **[CuratedTREC (TREC)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/trec)** ([Baudiš & Šedivý, 2015](https://www.aminer.cn/pub/599c7953601a182cd263079b/reading-wikipedia-to-answer-open-domain-questions))
85
+
86
+ #### Training Procedure
87
+
88
+ The training procedure is described in the [associated paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2004.04906.pdf):
89
+
90
+ > Given a collection of M text passages, the goal of our dense passage retriever (DPR) is to index all the passages in a low-dimensional and continuous space, such that it can retrieve efficiently the top k passages relevant to the input question for the reader at run-time.
91
+
92
+ > Our dense passage retriever (DPR) uses a dense encoder EP(·) which maps any text passage to a d- dimensional real-valued vectors and builds an index for all the M passages that we will use for retrieval. At run-time, DPR applies a different encoder EQ(·) that maps the input question to a d-dimensional vector, and retrieves k passages of which vectors are the closest to the question vector.
93
+
94
+ The authors report that for encoders, they used two independent BERT ([Devlin et al., 2019](https://aclanthology.org/N19-1423/)) networks (base, un-cased) and use FAISS ([Johnson et al., 2017](https://arxiv.org/abs/1702.08734)) during inference time to encode and index passages. See the paper for further details on training, including encoders, inference, positive and negative passages, and in-batch negatives.
95
+
96
+ ## Evaluation
97
+
98
+ The following evaluation information is extracted from the [associated paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2004.04906.pdf).
99
+
100
+ #### Testing Data, Factors and Metrics
101
+
102
+ The model developers report the performance of the model on five QA datasets, using the top-k accuracy (k ∈ {20, 100}). The datasets were [NQ](https://huggingface.co/datasets/nq_open), [TriviaQA](https://huggingface.co/datasets/trivia_qa), [WebQuestions (WQ)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/web_questions), [CuratedTREC (TREC)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/trec), and [SQuAD v1.1](https://huggingface.co/datasets/squad).

+ ## Environmental Impact
112
+
113
+ Carbon emissions can be estimated using the [Machine Learning Impact calculator](https://mlco2.github.io/impact#compute) presented in [Lacoste et al. (2019)](https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.09700). We present the hardware type and based on the [associated paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.04906).
