# Hierarchical Attention Transformer (HAT) / kiddothe2b/adhoc-hierarchical-transformer-base-4096
## Model description
This is a Hierarchical Attention Transformer (HAT) model as presented in [An Exploration of Hierarchical Attention Transformers for Efficient Long Document Classification (Chalkidis et al., 2022)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.05529).
The model has been warm-started re-using the weights of RoBERTa (Liu et al., 2019), BUT has not been continued pre-trained. It supports sequences of length up to 4,096.
HAT uses hierarchical attention, which is a combination of segment-wise and cross-segment attention operations. You can think of segments as paragraphs or sentences.
Note: If you wish to use a fully pre-trained HAT model, you have to use [kiddothe2b/adhoc-hat-base-4096](https://huggingface.co/kiddothe2b/adhoc-hat-base-4096).
## Intended uses & limitations
The model is intended to be fine-tuned on a downstream task.
See the [model hub](https://huggingface.co/models?filter=hierarchical-transformer) to look for other versions of HAT, or fine-tuned versions on a task that interests you.
Note that this model is primarily aimed at being fine-tuned on tasks that use the whole document to make decisions, such as document classification, sequential sentence classification, or question answering.
## How to use
You can fine-tune it for SequenceClassification, SequentialSentenceClassification, and MultipleChoice down-stream tasks:
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("kiddothe2b/adhoc-hierarchical-transformer-base-4096", trust_remote_code=True)
doc_classifier = AutoModelForSequenceClassification("kiddothe2b/adhoc-hierarchical-transformer-base-4096", trust_remote_code=True)
```
Note: If you wish to use a fully pre-trained HAT model, you have to use [kiddothe2b/hierarchical-transformer-base-4096](https://huggingface.co/kiddothe2b/hierarchical-transformer-base-4096).
## Limitations and bias
The training data used for this model contains a lot of unfiltered content from the internet, which is far from
neutral. Therefore, the model can have biased predictions.
## Training procedure
### Training and evaluation data
The model has been warm-started from [roberta-base](https://huggingface.co/roberta-base) checkpoint.
### Framework versions
- Transformers 4.19.0.dev0
- Pytorch 1.11.0+cu102
- Datasets 2.0.0
- Tokenizers 0.11.6
