Collaboratively pre-trained model on Bengali language using masked language modeling (MLM) and Sentence Order Prediction (SOP) objectives.
## Model description
<!-- You can embed local or remote images using `![](...)` -->
sahajBERT is a model composed of 1) a tokenizer specially designed for Bengali and 2) an [ALBERT](https://arxiv.org/abs/1909.11942) architecture collaboratively pre-trained on a dump of Wikipedia in Bengali and the Bengali part of OSCAR.
<!-- Add more information about the collaborative training when we have time / preprint available -->
## Intended uses & limitations
You can use the raw model for either masked language modeling or next sentence prediction, but it's mostly intended to be fine-tuned on a downstream task that use the whole sentence (potentially masked) to make decisions, such as sequence classification, token classification or question answering.
We trained our model on 2 of these downstream tasks: [sequence classification](https://huggingface.co/neuropark/sahajBERT-NCC) and [token classification](https://huggingface.co/neuropark/sahajBERT-NER)
#### How to use
You can use this model directly with a pipeline for masked language modeling:
```python
from transformers import AlbertForMaskedLM, FillMaskPipeline, PreTrainedTokenizerFast
# Initialize tokenizer
tokenizer = PreTrainedTokenizerFast.from_pretrained("neuropark/sahajBERT")
# Initialize model
model = AlbertForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("neuropark/sahajBERT")
# Initialize pipeline
pipeline = FillMaskPipeline(tokenizer=tokenizer, model=model)
raw_text = "ধন্যবাদ। আপনার সাথে কথা [MASK] ভালো লাগলো" # Change me
pipeline(raw_text)
```
Here is how to use this model to get the features of a given text in PyTorch:
```python
from transformers import AlbertModel, PreTrainedTokenizerFast
# Initialize tokenizer
tokenizer = PreTrainedTokenizerFast.from_pretrained("neuropark/sahajBERT")
# Initialize model
model = AlbertModel.from_pretrained("neuropark/sahajBERT")
text = "ধন্যবাদ। আপনার সাথে কথা বলে ভালো লাগলো" # Change me
encoded_input = tokenizer(text, return_tensors='pt')
output = model(**encoded_input)
```
#### Limitations and bias
<!-- Provide examples of latent issues and potential remediations. -->
WIP
## Training data
The tokenizer was trained on he Bengali part of OSCAR and the model on a [dump of Wikipedia in Bengali](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lhoestq/wikipedia_bn) and the Bengali part of [OSCAR](https://huggingface.co/datasets/oscar).
## Training procedure
This model was trained in a collaborative manner by volunteer participants.
<!-- Add more information about the collaborative training when we have time / preprint available + Preprocessing, hardware used, hyperparameters... (maybe use figures)-->

## Eval results
We evaluate sahajBERT model quality and 2 other model benchmarks ([XLM-R-large](https://huggingface.co/xlm-roberta-large) and [IndicBert](https://huggingface.co/ai4bharat/indic-bert)) by fine-tuning 3 times their pre-trained models on two downstream tasks in Bengali:
- **NER**: a named entity recognition on Bengali split of [WikiANN](https://huggingface.co/datasets/wikiann) dataset
- **NCC**: a multi-class classification task on news Soham News Category Classification dataset from IndicGLUE

|[XLM-R-large](https://huggingface.co/xlm-roberta-large) | 96.48 ± 0.22| 90.05 ± 0.38|
