# kwang2049/TSDAE-askubuntu2nli_stsb
This is a model from the paper ["TSDAE: Using Transformer-based Sequential Denoising Auto-Encoder for Unsupervised Sentence Embedding Learning"](https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.06979). This model was only trained with the TSDAE objective on AskUbuntu in an unsupervised manner. Training procedure of this model:
1. Initialized with [bert-base-uncased](https://huggingface.co/bert-base-uncased);
2. Unsupervised training on AskUbuntu with the TSDAE objective;
The pooling method is CLS-pooling.
## Usage
To use this model, an convenient way is through [SentenceTransformers](https://github.com/UKPLab/sentence-transformers). So please install it via:
```bash
pip install sentence-transformers
```
And then load the model and use it to encode sentences:
```python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer, models
dataset = 'askubuntu'
model_name_or_path = f'kwang2049/TSDAE-{dataset}'
model = SentenceTransformer(model_name_or_path)
model[1] = models.Pooling(model[0].get_word_embedding_dimension(), pooling_mode='cls') # Note this model uses CLS-pooling
sentence_embeddings = model.encode(['This is the first sentence.', 'This is the second one.'])
```
## Evaluation
To evaluate the model against the datasets used in the paper, please install our evaluation toolkit [USEB](https://github.com/UKPLab/useb):
```bash
pip install useb # Or git clone and pip install .
python -m useb.downloading all # Download both training and evaluation data
```
And then do the evaluation:
```python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer, models
import torch
from useb import run_on
dataset = 'askubuntu'
model_name_or_path = f'kwang2049/TSDAE-{dataset}'
model = SentenceTransformer(model_name_or_path)
model[1] = models.Pooling(model[0].get_word_embedding_dimension(), pooling_mode='cls') # Note this model uses CLS-pooling
@torch.no_grad()
def semb_fn(sentences) -> torch.Tensor:
return torch.Tensor(model.encode(sentences, show_progress_bar=False))
result = run_on(
dataset,
semb_fn=semb_fn,
eval_type='test',
data_eval_path='data-eval'
)
```
## Training
Please refer to [the page of TSDAE training](https://github.com/UKPLab/sentence-transformers/tree/master/examples/unsupervised_learning/TSDAE) in SentenceTransformers.
