BART

DISCLAIMER: If you see something strange, file a Github Issue and assign @patrickvonplaten

Overview

The Bart model was proposed in BART: Denoising Sequence-to-Sequence Pre-training for Natural Language Generation, Translation, and Comprehension by Mike Lewis, Yinhan Liu, Naman Goyal, Marjan Ghazvininejad, Abdelrahman Mohamed, Omer Levy, Ves Stoyanov and Luke Zettlemoyer on 29 Oct, 2019.

According to the abstract,

  • Bart uses a standard seq2seq/machine translation architecture with a bidirectional encoder (like BERT) and a left-to-right decoder (like GPT).

  • The pretraining task involves randomly shuffling the order of the original sentences and a novel in-filling scheme, where spans of text are replaced with a single mask token.

  • BART is particularly effective when fine tuned for text generation but also works well for comprehension tasks. It matches the performance of RoBERTa with comparable training resources on GLUE and SQuAD, achieves new state-of-the-art results on a range of abstractive dialogue, question answering, and summarization tasks, with gains of up to 6 ROUGE.

The Authors’ code can be found here.

Examples

Implementation Notes

  • Bart doesn’t use token_type_ids for sequence classification. Use BartTokenizer or encode() to get the proper splitting.

  • The forward pass of BartModel will create decoder inputs (using the helper function transformers.models.bart.modeling_bart._prepare_bart_decoder_inputs()) if they are not passed. This is different than some other modeling APIs.

  • Model predictions are intended to be identical to the original implementation when force_bos_token_to_be_generated=True. This only works, however, if the string you pass to fairseq.encode() starts with a space.

  • generate() should be used for conditional generation tasks like summarization, see the example in that docstrings.

  • Models that load the facebook/bart-large-cnn weights will not have a mask_token_id, or be able to perform mask-filling tasks.

  • For training/forward passes that don’t involve beam search, pass use_cache=False.

Mask Filling

The facebook/bart-base and facebook/bart-large checkpoints can be used to fill multi-token masks.

from transformers import BartForConditionalGeneration, BartTokenizer
model = BartForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("facebook/bart-large", force_bos_token_to_be_generated=True)
tok = BartTokenizer.from_pretrained("facebook/bart-large")
example_english_phrase = "UN Chief Says There Is No <mask> in Syria"
batch = tok(example_english_phrase, return_tensors='pt')
generated_ids = model.generate(batch['input_ids'])
assert tok.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True) == ['UN Chief Says There Is No Plan to Stop Chemical Weapons in Syria']

Construct a BART tokenizer.

BartTokenizer is identical to RobertaTokenizer and adds a new prepare_seq2seq_batch()

Refer to superclass RobertaTokenizer for usage examples and documentation concerning the initialization parameters and other methods.

prepare_seq2seq_batch(src_texts: List[str], tgt_texts: Optional[List[str]] = None, max_length: Optional[int] = None, max_target_length: Optional[int] = None, padding: str = 'longest', return_tensors: str = None, truncation=True, **kwargs) → transformers.tokenization_utils_base.BatchEncoding[source]

Parameters

  • src_texts (List[str]) – List of documents to summarize or source language texts.

  • tgt_texts (list, optional) – List of summaries or target language texts.

  • max_length (int, optional) – Controls the maximum length for encoder inputs (documents to summarize or source language texts) If left unset or set to None, this will use the predefined model maximum length if a maximum length is required by one of the truncation/padding parameters. If the model has no specific maximum input length (like XLNet) truncation/padding to a maximum length will be deactivated.

  • max_target_length (int, optional) – Controls the maximum length of decoder inputs (target language texts or summaries) If left unset or set to None, this will use the max_length value.

  • padding (bool, str or PaddingStrategy, optional, defaults to False) –

    Activates and controls padding. Accepts the following values:

    • True or 'longest': Pad to the longest sequence in the batch (or no padding if only a single sequence if provided).

BartModel

class transformers.BartModel(config: transformers.models.bart.configuration_bart.BartConfig)[source]

The bare BART Model outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.

This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch torch.nn.Module subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Parameters

config (BartConfig) – Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

forward(input_ids, attention_mask=None, decoder_input_ids=None, decoder_attention_mask=None, encoder_outputs: Optional[Tuple] = None, past_key_values=None, use_cache=None, output_attentions=None, output_hidden_states=None, return_dict=None)[source]

The BartModel forward method, overrides the __call__() special method.

Note

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the Module instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Parameters

    Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Padding will be ignored by default should you provide it.

    Indices can be obtained using BartTokenizer. See transformers.PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and transformers.PreTrainedTokenizer.__call__() for details.

    What are input IDs?

  • attention_mask (torch.Tensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional) –

    Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

    • 0 for tokens that are masked.

    What are attention masks?

  • decoder_input_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, target_sequence_length), optional) – Provide for translation and summarization training. By default, the model will create this tensor by shifting the input_ids to the right, following the paper.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the Module instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Parameters

    Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Padding will be ignored by default should you provide it.

    Indices can be obtained using BartTokenizer. See transformers.PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and transformers.PreTrainedTokenizer.__call__() for details.

    What are input IDs?

  • attention_mask (torch.Tensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional) –
