- **Language:** en  
- **Training data:** [lmqg/qg_squadshifts](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lmqg/qg_squadshifts) (nyt)
- **Online Demo:** [https://autoqg.net/](https://autoqg.net/)
- **Repository:** [https://github.com/asahi417/lm-question-generation](https://github.com/asahi417/lm-question-generation)
- **Paper:** [TBA](TBA)

### Usage
```python

from transformers import pipeline

model_path = 'lmqg/t5-base-squadshifts-nyt'
pipe = pipeline("text2text-generation", model_path)

# Question Generation
input_text = 'generate question: <hl> Beyonce <hl> further expanded her acting career, starring as blues singer Etta James in the 2008 musical biopic, Cadillac Records.'
question = pipe(input_text)
```
