mcontriever-xnli

This model is a fine-tuned version of facebook/mcontriever on the XNLI dataset.

Model description

Unsupervised Dense Information Retrieval with Contrastive Learning. Gautier Izacard, Mathilde Caron, Lucas Hosseini, Sebastian Riedel, Piotr Bojanowski, Armand Joulin, Edouard Grave, arXiv 2021

How to use the model

The model can be loaded with the zero-shot-classification pipeline like so:

from transformers import pipeline
classifier = pipeline("zero-shot-classification",
                      model="mjwong/mcontriever-xnli")

You can then use this pipeline to classify sequences into any of the class names you specify.

sequence_to_classify = "Angela Merkel ist eine Politikerin in Deutschland und Vorsitzende der CDU"
candidate_labels = ["politics", "economy", "entertainment", "environment"]
classifier(sequence_to_classify, candidate_labels)
#{'sequence': 'Angela Merkel ist eine Politikerin in Deutschland und Vorsitzende der CDU',
# 'labels': ['politics', 'entertainment', 'economy', 'environment'],
# 'scores': [0.8246253132820129,
#  0.06991120427846909,
#  0.06377045065164566,
#  0.04169302061200142]}

If more than one candidate label can be correct, pass multi_class=True to calculate each class independently:

candidate_labels = ["politics", "economy", "entertainment", "environment"]
classifier(sequence_to_classify, candidate_labels, multi_label=True)
#{'sequence': 'Angela Merkel ist eine Politikerin in Deutschland und Vorsitzende der CDU',
# 'labels': ['politics', 'entertainment', 'economy', 'environment'],
# 'scores': [0.9309880137443542,
#  0.06579376757144928,
#  0.0584840327501297,
#  0.007538211066275835]}

Eval results

The model was evaluated using the XNLI test sets on 14 languages: English (en), Arabic (ar), Bulgarian (bg), German (de), Greek (el), Spanish (es), French (fr), Russian (ru), Swahili (sw), Thai (th), Turkish (tr), Urdu (ur), Vietnam (vi) and Chinese (zh). The metric used is accuracy.
