Overview of MBart

The MBart model was presented in Multilingual Denoising Pre-training for Neural Machine Translation by Yinhan Liu, Jiatao Gu, Naman Goyal, Xian Li, Sergey Edunov Marjan Ghazvininejad, Mike Lewis, Luke Zettlemoyer.

According to the abstract, MBART is a sequence-to-sequence denoising auto-encoder pretrained on large-scale monolingual corpora in many languages using the BART objective. mBART is one of the first methods for pretraining a complete sequence-to-sequence model by denoising full texts in multiple languages, while previous approaches have focused only on the encoder, decoder, or reconstructing parts of the text.

This model was contributed by valhalla. The Authors’ code can be found here

Training of MBart

MBart is a multilingual encoder-decoder (sequence-to-sequence) model primarily intended for translation task. As the model is multilingual it expects the sequences in a different format. A special language id token is added in both the source and target text. The source text format is X [eos, src_lang_code] where X is the source text. The target text format is [tgt_lang_code] X [eos]. bos is never used.

The regular __call__() will encode source text format, and it should be wrapped inside the context manager as_target_tokenizer() to encode target text format.

  • Supervised training

>>> from transformers import MBartForConditionalGeneration, MBartTokenizer

>>> tokenizer = MBartTokenizer.from_pretrained("facebook/mbart-large-en-ro")
>>> example_english_phrase = "UN Chief Says There Is No Military Solution in Syria"
>>> expected_translation_romanian = "Şeful ONU declară că nu există o soluţie militară în Siria"

>>> inputs = tokenizer(example_english_phrase, return_tensors="pt", src_lang="en_XX", tgt_lang="ro_RO")
>>> with tokenizer.as_target_tokenizer():
...     labels = tokenizer(expected_translation_romanian, return_tensors="pt")

>>> model = MBartForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("facebook/mbart-large-en-ro")
>>> # forward pass
>>> model(**inputs, labels=batch['labels'])
  • Generation

    While generating the target text set the decoder_start_token_id to the target language id. The following example shows how to translate English to Romanian using the facebook/mbart-large-en-ro model.

>>> from transformers import MBartForConditionalGeneration, MBartTokenizer

>>> tokenizer = MBartTokenizer.from_pretrained("facebook/mbart-large-en-ro", src_lang="en_XX")
>>> article = "UN Chief Says There Is No Military Solution in Syria"
>>> inputs = tokenizer(article, return_tensors="pt")
>>> translated_tokens = model.generate(**inputs, decoder_start_token_id=tokenizer.lang_code_to_id["ro_RO"])
>>> tokenizer.batch_decode(translated_tokens, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
"Şeful ONU declară că nu există o soluţie militară în Siria"

Overview of MBart-50

MBart-50 was introduced in the Multilingual Translation with Extensible Multilingual Pretraining and Finetuning <https://arxiv.org/abs/2008.00401> paper by Yuqing Tang, Chau Tran, Xian Li, Peng-Jen Chen, Naman Goyal, Vishrav Chaudhary, Jiatao Gu, Angela Fan. MBart-50 is created using the original mbart-large-cc25 checkpoint by extendeding its embedding layers with randomly initialized vectors for an extra set of 25 language tokens and then pretrained on 50 languages.

According to the abstract

Multilingual translation models can be created through multilingual finetuning. Instead of finetuning on one direction, a pretrained model is finetuned on many directions at the same time. It demonstrates that pretrained models can be extended to incorporate additional languages without loss of performance. Multilingual finetuning improves on average 1 BLEU over the strongest baselines (being either multilingual from scratch or bilingual finetuning) while improving 9.3 BLEU on average over bilingual baselines from scratch.

Training of MBart-50

The text format for MBart-50 is slightly different from mBART. For MBart-50 the language id token is used as a prefix for both source and target text i.e the text format is [lang_code] X [eos], where lang_code is source language id for source text and target language id for target text, with X being the source or target text respectively.

MBart-50 has its own tokenizer MBart50Tokenizer.

  • Supervised training

from transformers import MBartForConditionalGeneration, MBart50TokenizerFast

model = MBartForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("facebook/mbart-large-50")
tokenizer = MBart50TokenizerFast.from_pretrained("facebook/mbart-large-50", src_lang="en_XX", tgt_lang="ro_RO")

src_text = " UN Chief Says There Is No Military Solution in Syria"
tgt_text =  "Şeful ONU declară că nu există o soluţie militară în Siria"

model_inputs = tokenizer(src_text, return_tensors="pt")
with tokenizer.as_target_tokenizer():
    labels = tokenizer(tgt_text, return_tensors="pt").input_ids

model(**model_inputs, labels=labels) # forward pass
  • Generation

    To generate using the mBART-50 multilingual translation models, eos_token_id is used as the decoder_start_token_id and the target language id is forced as the first generated token. To force the target language id as the first generated token, pass the forced_bos_token_id parameter to the generate method. The following example shows how to translate between Hindi to French and Arabic to English using the facebook/mbart-50-large-many-to-many checkpoint.

from transformers import MBartForConditionalGeneration, MBart50TokenizerFast

article_hi = "संयुक्त राष्ट्र के प्रमुख का कहना है कि सीरिया में कोई सैन्य समाधान नहीं है"
article_ar = "الأمين العام للأمم المتحدة يقول إنه لا يوجد حل عسكري في سوريا."

model = MBartForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("facebook/mbart-large-50-many-to-many-mmt")
tokenizer = MBart50TokenizerFast.from_pretrained("facebook/mbart-large-50-many-to-many-mmt")

# translate Hindi to French
tokenizer.src_lang = "hi_IN"
encoded_hi = tokenizer(article_hi, return_tensors="pt")
generated_tokens = model.generate(**encoded_hi, forced_bos_token_id=tokenizer.lang_code_to_id["fr_XX"])
tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_tokens, skip_special_tokens=True)
# => "Le chef de l 'ONU affirme qu 'il n 'y a pas de solution militaire en Syria."

# translate Arabic to English
tokenizer.src_lang = "ar_AR"
encoded_ar = tokenizer(article_ar, return_tensors="pt")
generated_tokens = model.generate(**encoded_ar, forced_bos_token_id=tokenizer.lang_code_to_id["en_XX"])
tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_tokens, skip_special_tokens=True)
# => "The Secretary-General of the United Nations says there is no military solution in Syria."

MBartTokenizer

class transformers.MBartTokenizer(*args, tokenizer_file=None, src_lang=None, tgt_lang=None, additional_special_tokens=None, **kwargs)[source]

Construct an MBART tokenizer.

MBartTokenizer is a subclass of XLMRobertaTokenizer. Refer to superclass XLMRobertaTokenizer for usage examples and documentation concerning the initialization parameters and other methods.

The tokenization method is <tokens> <eos> <language code> for source language documents, and <language code> <tokens> <eos>` for target language documents.

Examples:

>>> from transformers import MBartTokenizer
>>> tokenizer = MBartTokenizer.from_pretrained('facebook/mbart-large-en-ro', src_lang="en_XX", tgt_lang="ro_RO")

>>> expected_translation_romanian = "Şeful ONU declară că nu există o soluţie militară în Siria"
>>> inputs = tokenizer(example_english_phrase, return_tensors="pt)
>>> with tokenizer.as_target_tokenizer():
...     labels = tokenizer(expected_translation_romanian, return_tensors="pt")
>>> inputs["labels"] = labels["input_ids"]

  • sep_token (str, optional, defaults to "</s>") – The separator token, which is used when building a sequence from multiple sequences, e.g. two sequences for sequence classification or for a text and a question for question answering. It is also used as the last token of a sequence built with special tokens.

  • cls_token (str, optional, defaults to "<s>") – The classifier token which is used when doing sequence classification (classification of the whole sequence instead of per-token classification). It is the first token of the sequence when built with special tokens.

  • unk_token (str, optional, defaults to "<unk>") – The unknown token. A token that is not in the vocabulary cannot be converted to an ID and is set to be this token instead.

  • pad_token (str, optional, defaults to "<pad>") – The token used for padding, for example when batching sequences of different lengths.

  • mask_token (str, optional, defaults to "<mask>") – The token used for masking values. This is the token used when training this model with masked language modeling. This is the token which the model will try to predict.

Examples:

>>> from transformers import MBart50TokenizerFast
>>> tokenizer = MBart50TokenizerFast.from_pretrained("facebook/mbart-large-50", src_lang="en_XX", tgt_lang="ro_RO")
>>> src_text = " UN Chief Says There Is No Military Solution in Syria"
>>> tgt_text =  "Şeful ONU declară că nu există o soluţie militară în Siria"
>>> model_inputs = tokenizer(src_text, return_tensors="pt")

Temporarily sets the tokenizer for encoding the targets. Useful for tokenizer associated to sequence-to-sequence models that need a slightly different processing for the labels.

build_inputs_with_special_tokens(token_ids_0: List[int], token_ids_1: Optional[List[int]] = None) → List[int][source]

Build model inputs from a sequence or a pair of sequence for sequence classification tasks by concatenating and adding special tokens. The special tokens depend on calling set_lang.

An MBART-50 sequence has the following format, where X represents the sequence:

  • input_ids (for encoder) [src_lang_code] X [eos]

  • labels: (for decoder) [tgt_lang_code] X [eos]

BOS is never used. Pairs of sequences are not the expected use case, but they will be handled without a separator.

Parameters
  • token_ids_0 (List[int]) – List of IDs to which the special tokens will be added.

  • token_ids_1 (List[int], optional) – Optional second list of IDs for sequence pairs.

Returns

list of input IDs with the appropriate special tokens.

Return type

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.

    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).

    • 'max_length': Pad to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided.

    • False or 'do_not_pad' (default): No padding (i.e., can output a batch with sequences of different lengths).

  • return_tensors (str or TensorType, optional) –

    If set, will return tensors instead of list of python integers. Acceptable values are:

    • 'only_second': Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument max_length or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will only truncate the second sequence of a pair if a pair of sequences (or a batch of pairs) is provided.

    • False or 'do_not_truncate' (default): No truncation (i.e., can output batch with sequence lengths greater than the model maximum admissible input size).

  • **kwargs – Additional keyword arguments passed along to self.__call__.

Returns

A BatchEncoding with the following fields:

  • input_ids – List of token ids to be fed to the encoder.

MBartModel

class transformers.MBartModel(config: transformers.models.mbart.configuration_mbart.MBartConfig)[source]

The bare MBART 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 (MBartConfig) – 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=None, attention_mask=None, decoder_input_ids=None, decoder_attention_mask=None, head_mask=None, decoder_head_mask=None, cross_attn_head_mask=None, encoder_outputs=None, past_key_values=None, inputs_embeds=None, decoder_inputs_embeds=None, use_cache=None, output_attentions=None, output_hidden_states=None, return_dict=None)[source]

The MBartModel 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
  • input_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length)) –

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

    Indices can be obtained using MBartTokenizer. 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]:

    • 1 for tokens that are not masked,

    • 0 for tokens that are masked.

    What are attention masks?

  • decoder_input_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, target_sequence_length), optional) –

    Indices of decoder input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

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

    What are decoder input IDs?

    MBart uses a specific language id token as the starting token for decoder_input_ids generation that varies according to source and target language, e.g. 25004 for en_XX, and 25003 for de_DE. If past_key_values is used, optionally only the last decoder_input_ids have to be input (see past_key_values).

    For translation and summarization training, decoder_input_ids should be provided. If no decoder_input_ids is provided, the model will create this tensor by shifting the input_ids to the right for denoising pre-training following the paper.

  • decoder_attention_mask (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, target_sequence_length), optional) – Default behavior: generate a tensor that ignores pad tokens in decoder_input_ids. Causal mask will also be used by default.

  • head_mask (torch.Tensor of shape (encoder_layers, encoder_attention_heads), optional) –

    Mask to nullify selected heads of the attention modules in the encoder. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

    • 1 indicates the head is not masked,

    Tuple of tuple(torch.FloatTensor) of length config.n_layers, with each tuple having 2 tensors of shape (batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, embed_size_per_head)) and 2 additional tensors of shape (batch_size, num_heads, encoder_sequence_length, embed_size_per_head).

    Contains pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks and in the cross-attention blocks) that can be used (see past_key_values input) to speed up sequential decoding.

    If past_key_values are used, the user can optionally input only the last decoder_input_ids (those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape (batch_size, 1) instead of all decoder_input_ids` of shape (batch_size, sequence_length).

  • inputs_embeds (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size), optional) – Optionally, instead of passing input_ids you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation.

This is useful if you want more control over how to convert decoder_input_ids indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.

    If decoder_input_ids and decoder_inputs_embeds are both unset, decoder_inputs_embeds takes the value of inputs_embeds.

MBartForQuestionAnswering

class transformers.MBartForQuestionAnswering(config)[source]

MBART Model with a span classification head on top for extractive question-answering tasks like SQuAD (a linear layer on top of the hidden-states output to compute span start logits and span end logits).

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 (MBartConfig) – 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=None, attention_mask=None, decoder_input_ids=None, decoder_attention_mask=None, head_mask=None, decoder_head_mask=None, cross_attn_head_mask=None, encoder_outputs=None, start_positions=None, end_positions=None, inputs_embeds=None, decoder_inputs_embeds=None, use_cache=None, output_attentions=None, output_hidden_states=None, return_dict=None)[source]

The MBartForQuestionAnswering 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
  • input_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length)) –

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

    Indices can be obtained using MBartTokenizer. 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]:

    • 1 for tokens that are not masked,

    • 0 for tokens that are masked.

    What are attention masks?

  • decoder_input_ids (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, target_sequence_length), optional) –

    Indices of decoder input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

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

    What are decoder input IDs?

    MBart uses a specific language id token as the starting token for decoder_input_ids generation that varies according to source and target language, e.g. 25004 for en_XX, and 25003 for de_DE. If past_key_values is used, optionally only the last decoder_input_ids have to be input (see past_key_values).

    For translation and summarization training, decoder_input_ids should be provided. If no decoder_input_ids is provided, the model will create this tensor by shifting the input_ids to the right for denoising pre-training following the paper.

  • decoder_attention_mask (torch.LongTensor of shape (batch_size, target_sequence_length), optional) – Default behavior: generate a tensor that ignores pad tokens in decoder_input_ids. Causal mask will also be used by default.

  • head_mask (torch.Tensor of shape (encoder_layers, encoder_attention_heads), optional) –

    Mask to nullify selected heads of the attention modules in the encoder. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

  • decoder_inputs_embeds (torch.FloatTensor of shape (batch_size, target_sequence_length, hidden_size), optional) –

    Optionally, instead of passing decoder_input_ids you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation.

This is useful if you want more control over how to convert decoder_input_ids indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.

    If decoder_input_ids and decoder_inputs_embeds are both unset, decoder_inputs_embeds takes the value of inputs_embeds.

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 tf.keras.Model subclass. Use it as a regular TF 2.0 Keras Model and refer to the TF 2.0 documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Note

TF 2.0 models accepts two formats as inputs:

  • having all inputs as keyword arguments (like PyTorch models), or

  • having all inputs as a list, tuple or dict in the first positional arguments.

This second option is useful when using tf.keras.Model.fit() method which currently requires having all the tensors in the first argument of the model call function: model(inputs).

If you choose this second option, there are three possibilities you can use to gather all the input Tensors in the first positional argument :

  • a single Tensor with input_ids only and nothing else: model(input_ids)

  • a list of varying length with one or several input Tensors IN THE ORDER given in the docstring: model([input_ids, attention_mask]) or model([input_ids, attention_mask, token_type_ids])

  • a dictionary with one or several input Tensors associated to the input names given in the docstring: model({"input_ids": input_ids, "token_type_ids": token_type_ids})

TFMBartForConditionalGeneration

class transformers.TFMBartForConditionalGeneration(*args, **kwargs)[source]

The MBART Model with a language modeling head. Can be used for summarization. This model inherits from TFPreTrainedModel. 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 tf.keras.Model subclass. Use it as a regular TF 2.0 Keras Model and refer to the TF 2.0 documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Note

TF 2.0 models accepts two formats as inputs:

  • having all inputs as keyword arguments (like PyTorch models), or

  • having all inputs as a list, tuple or dict in the first positional arguments.

This second option is useful when using tf.keras.Model.fit() method which currently requires having all the tensors in the first argument of the model call function: model(inputs).

If you choose this second option, there are three possibilities you can use to gather all the input Tensors in the first positional argument :

  • a single Tensor with input_ids only and nothing else: model(input_ids)

  • a list of varying length with one or several input Tensors IN THE ORDER given in the docstring: model([input_ids, attention_mask]) or model([input_ids, attention_mask, token_type_ids])

  • a dictionary with one or several input Tensors associated to the input names given in the docstring: model({"input_ids": input_ids, "token_type_ids": token_type_ids})

Parameters

config (MBartConfig) – 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.

call(input_ids=None, attention_mask=None, decoder_input_ids=None, decoder_attention_mask=None, head_mask=None, decoder_head_mask=None, cross_attn_head_mask=None, encoder_outputs: Optional[transformers.modeling_tf_outputs.TFBaseModelOutput] = None, past_key_values=None, inputs_embeds=None, decoder_inputs_embeds=None, use_cache=None, output_attentions=None, output_hidden_states=None, return_dict=None, labels=None, training=False, **kwargs)[source]

The TFMBartForConditionalGeneration 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
  • input_ids (tf.Tensor of shape ({0})) –

    Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

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

    What are input IDs?

  • attention_mask (tf.Tensor of shape ({0}), optional) –

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

    • 1 for tokens that are not masked,

    • 0 for tokens that are masked.

    What are attention masks?

  • decoder_input_ids (tf.Tensor of shape (batch_size, target_sequence_length), optional) –

    Indices of decoder input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

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

    What are decoder input IDs?

    MBart uses a specific language id token as the starting token for decoder_input_ids generation that varies according to source and target language, e.g. 25004 for en_XX, and 25003 for de_DE. If past_key_values is used, optionally only the last decoder_input_ids have to be input (see past_key_values).

    For translation and summarization training, decoder_input_ids should be provided. If no decoder_input_ids is provided, the model will create this tensor by shifting the input_ids to the right for denoising pre-training following the paper.

  • decoder_attention_mask (tf.Tensor of shape (batch_size, target_sequence_length), optional) – will be made by default and ignore pad tokens. It is not recommended to set this for most use cases.

  • head_mask (tf.Tensor of shape (encoder_layers, encoder_attention_heads), optional) –

    Mask to nullify selected heads of the attention modules in the encoder. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

    • 1 indicates the head is not masked,

    • 0 indicates the head is masked.

  • decoder_head_mask (tf.Tensor of shape (decoder_layers, decoder_attention_heads), optional) –

    Mask to nullify selected heads of the attention modules in the decoder. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

    • 1 indicates the head is not masked,

    • 0 indicates the head is masked.

  • cross_attn_head_mask (tf.Tensor of shape (decoder_layers, decoder_attention_heads), optional) –

    Mask to nullify selected heads of the cross-attention modules. Mask values selected in [0, 1]:

    • 1 indicates the head is not masked,

    • 0 indicates the head is masked.

  • encoder_outputs (tf.FloatTensor, optional) – hidden states at the output of the last layer of the encoder. Used in the cross-attention of the decoder. of shape (batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size) is a sequence of

  • past_key_values (Tuple[Tuple[tf.Tensor]] of length config.n_layers) – contains precomputed key and value hidden states of the attention blocks. Can be used to speed up decoding. If past_key_values are used, the user can optionally input only the last decoder_input_ids (those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape (batch_size, 1) instead of all decoder_input_ids of shape (batch_size, sequence_length).

  • use_cache (bool, optional, defaults to True) – If set to True, past_key_values key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see past_key_values). Set to False during training, True during generation

  • output_attentions (bool, optional) – Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See attentions under returned tensors for more detail. This argument can be used only in eager mode, in graph mode the value in the config will be used instead.

  • output_hidden_states (bool, optional) – Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See hidden_states under returned tensors for more detail. This argument can be used only in eager mode, in graph mode the value in the config will be used instead.

  • return_dict (bool, optional) – Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple. This argument can be used in eager mode, in graph mode the value will always be set to True.

  • training (bool, optional, defaults to False) – Whether or not to use the model in training mode (some modules like dropout modules have different behaviors between training and evaluation).

  • labels (tf.Tensor of shape (batch_size, sequence_length), optional) – Labels for computing the masked language modeling loss. Indices should either be in [0, ..., config.vocab_size] or -100 (see input_ids docstring). Tokens with indices set to -100 are ignored (masked), the loss is only computed for the tokens with labels in [0, ..., config.vocab_size].

Returns
