## Model Details
**Model Description:** This is the [uncased DistilBERT model](https://huggingface.co/distilbert-base-uncased) fine-tuned on [Multi-Genre Natural Language Inference](https://huggingface.co/datasets/multi_nli) (MNLI) dataset for the zero-shot classification task.
- **Developed by:** The [Typeform](https://www.typeform.com/) team.
- **Model Type:** Zero-Shot Classification
- **Language(s):** English
- **License:** Unknown
- **Parent Model:** See the [distilbert base uncased model](https://huggingface.co/distilbert-base-uncased) for more information about the Distilled-BERT base model.
## How to Get Started with the Model
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("typeform/distilbert-base-uncased-mnli")
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("typeform/distilbert-base-uncased-mnli")
```
## Uses
This model can be used for text classification tasks.
## Risks, Limitations and Biases
**CONTENT WARNING: Readers should be aware this section contains content that is disturbing, offensive, and can propagate historical and current stereotypes.**
Significant research has explored bias and fairness issues with language models (see, e.g., [Sheng et al. (2021)](https://aclanthology.org/2021.acl-long.330.pdf) and [Bender et al. (2021)](https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3442188.3445922)).
## Training
#### Training Data
This model of DistilBERT-uncased is pretrained on the Multi-Genre Natural Language Inference [(MultiNLI)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/multi_nli) corpus. It is a crowd-sourced collection of 433k sentence pairs annotated with textual entailment information. The corpus covers a range of genres of spoken and written text, and supports a distinctive cross-genre generalization evaluation.
This model is also **not** case-sensitive, i.e., it does not make a difference between "english" and "English".
#### Training Procedure
Training is done on a [p3.2xlarge](https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/p3/) AWS EC2 with the following hyperparameters:
```
$ run_glue.py \
--model_name_or_path distilbert-base-uncased \
--task_name mnli \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--max_seq_length 128 \
--per_device_train_batch_size 16 \
--learning_rate 2e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 5 \
--output_dir /tmp/distilbert-base-uncased_mnli/
```

## Environmental Impact
Carbon emissions can be estimated using the [Machine Learning Impact calculator](https://mlco2.github.io/impact#compute) presented in [Lacoste et al. (2019)](https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.09700). We present the hardware type based on the [associated paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2105.09680.pdf).
