## prophetnet-large-uncased
Pretrained weights for [ProphetNet](https://arxiv.org/abs/2001.04063).
ProphetNet is a new pre-trained language model for sequence-to-sequence learning with a novel self-supervised objective called future n-gram prediction.
ProphetNet is able to predict more future tokens with a n-stream decoder. The original implementation is Fairseq version at [github repo](https://github.com/microsoft/ProphetNet).
### Usage
This pre-trained model can be fine-tuned on *sequence-to-sequence* tasks. The model could *e.g.* be trained on headline generation as follows:
```python
from transformers import ProphetNetForConditionalGeneration, ProphetNetTokenizer
model = ProphetNetForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("microsoft/prophetnet-large-uncased")
tokenizer = ProphetNetTokenizer.from_pretrained("microsoft/prophetnet-large-uncased")
input_str = "the us state department said wednesday it had received no formal word from bolivia that it was expelling the us ambassador there but said the charges made against him are `` baseless ."
target_str = "us rejects charges against its ambassador in bolivia"
input_ids = tokenizer(input_str, return_tensors="pt").input_ids
labels = tokenizer(target_str, return_tensors="pt").input_ids
loss = model(input_ids, labels=labels).loss
```
