## Usage

```python
>>> from modeling_cpt import CPTForConditionalGeneration
>>> from transformers import BertTokenizer
>>> tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("fnlp/cpt-large")
>>> model = CPTForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("fnlp/cpt-large")
>>> inputs = tokenizer.encode("北京是[MASK]的首都", return_tensors='pt')
>>> pred_ids = model.generate(input_ids, num_beams=4, max_length=20)
>>> print(tokenizer.convert_ids_to_tokens(pred_ids[i]))
    ['[SEP]', '[CLS]', '北', '京', '是', '中', '国', '的', '首', '都', '[SEP]']
```

**Note: Please use BertTokenizer for the model vocabulary. DO NOT use original BartTokenizer.**
