# mT5 Base for Formal-to-informal Style Transfer 🤗
This repository contains the checkpoint for the [mT5 Base](https://huggingface.co/google/mt5-base) model fine-tuned on Formal-to-informal style transfer on the Italian subset of the XFORMAL dataset as part of the experiments of the paper [IT5: Large-scale Text-to-text Pretraining for Italian Language Understanding and Generation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.03759) by [Gabriele Sarti](https://gsarti.com) and [Malvina Nissim](https://malvinanissim.github.io).
A comprehensive overview of other released materials is provided in the [gsarti/it5](https://github.com/gsarti/it5) repository. Refer to the paper for additional details concerning the reported scores and the evaluation approach.
## Using the model
Model checkpoints are available for usage in Tensorflow, Pytorch and JAX. They can be used directly with pipelines as:
```python
from transformers import pipelines
f2i = pipeline("text2text-generation", model='it5/mt5-base-formal-to-informal')
f2i("Vi ringrazio infinitamente per vostra disponibilità")
>>> [{"generated_text": "e grazie per la vostra disponibilità!"}]
```
or loaded using autoclasses:
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("it5/mt5-base-formal-to-informal")
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained("it5/mt5-base-formal-to-informal")
```
