# claude tokenizer: mlm

A variant of [Xenova/claude-tokenizer](https://huggingface.co/Xenova/claude-tokenizer) with some small changes to support usage as an MLM tokenizer.

```py
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('pszemraj/claude-tokenizer-mlm')

text = "Hello, this is a test input."
ids = tokenizer(text)
print(tokenizer.decode(ids['input_ids'], skip_special_tokens=False))
# <bos>Hello, this is a test input.<EOT>
len(tokenizer)
# 65004
```


details relevant for model configs using this:
```py

        2: AddedToken("<META_START>", rstrip=False, lstrip=False, single_word=False, normalized=False, special=True),
        3: AddedToken("<META_END>", rstrip=False, lstrip=False, single_word=False, normalized=False, special=True),
        4: AddedToken("<SOS>", rstrip=False, lstrip=False, single_word=False, normalized=False, special=True),
        65000: AddedToken("<pad>", rstrip=False, lstrip=False, single_word=False, normalized=False, special=True),
        65001: AddedToken("<CLS>", rstrip=False, lstrip=False, single_word=False, normalized=False, special=True),
        65002: AddedToken("<bos>", rstrip=False, lstrip=False, single_word=False, normalized=False, special=True),
        65003: AddedToken("<mask>", rstrip=False, lstrip=True, single_word=False, normalized=True, special=True),
}
```

the `<CLS>` token is added but unused, both the CLS and BOS tokens are set to `<bos>` - see `tokenizer_config.json` for details
