# japanese-gpt2-medium
![rinna-icon](./rinna.png)
This repository provides a medium-sized Japanese GPT-2 model. The model was trained using code from Github repository [rinnakk/japanese-pretrained-models](https://github.com/rinnakk/japanese-pretrained-models) by [rinna Co., Ltd.](https://corp.rinna.co.jp/)
# How to use the model
~~~~
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("rinna/japanese-gpt2-medium", use_fast=False)
tokenizer.do_lower_case = True # due to some bug of tokenizer config loading
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("rinna/japanese-gpt2-medium")
~~~~
# Model architecture
A 24-layer, 1024-hidden-size transformer-based language model.
# Training
The model was trained on [Japanese CC-100](http://data.statmt.org/cc-100/ja.txt.xz) and [Japanese Wikipedia](https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/cirrussearch) to optimize a traditional language modelling objective on 8\\*V100 GPUs for around 30 days. It reaches around 18 perplexity on a chosen validation set from the same data.
# Tokenization
The model uses a [sentencepiece](https://github.com/google/sentencepiece)-based tokenizer, the vocabulary was trained on the Japanese Wikipedia using the official sentencepiece training script.
