Chinese Poem GPT2 Model

Model description

The model is pre-trained by UER-py, which is introduced in this paper. Besides, the model could also be pre-trained by TencentPretrain introduced in this paper, which inherits UER-py to support models with parameters above one billion, and extends it to a multimodal pre-training framework.

The model is used to generate Chinese ancient poems. You can download the model from the UER-py Modelzoo page, or GPT2-Chinese Github page, or via HuggingFace from the link gpt2-chinese-poem.

Since the parameter skip_special_tokens is used in the pipelines.py, special tokens such as [SEP], [UNK] will be deleted, the output results of Hosted inference API (right) may not be properly displayed.

How to use

You can use the model directly with a pipeline for text generation:

When the parameter skip_special_tokens is True:

>>> from transformers import BertTokenizer, GPT2LMHeadModel,TextGenerationPipeline
>>> tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("uer/gpt2-chinese-poem")
>>> model = GPT2LMHeadModel.from_pretrained("uer/gpt2-chinese-poem")
>>> text_generator = TextGenerationPipeline(model, tokenizer)   
>>> text_generator("[CLS]梅 山 如 积 翠 ,", max_length=50, do_sample=True)
    [{'generated_text': '[CLS]梅 山 如 积 翠 , 丛 竹 隠 疏 花 。 水 影 落 寒 濑 , 竹 声 随 暮 鸦 。 茅 茨 数 间 屋 , 烟 火 两 三 家 。 安 得 携 琴 酒 , 相 逢 烟 雨 赊 。 向 湖 边 过 , 偏 怜 雪 里 看 。 浮 峦 如 画 出 , 远 树 与 天 连 。 月 上 僧 房 静 , 风 回 萤 火 寒 。 幽 情 何 可 写 , 赖 有 子 期 弹 。 棠 真'}]

When the parameter skip_special_tokens is False:

>>> from transformers import BertTokenizer, GPT2LMHeadModel,TextGenerationPipeline
>>> tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("uer/gpt2-chinese-poem")
>>> model = GPT2LMHeadModel.from_pretrained("uer/gpt2-chinese-poem")
>>> text_generator = TextGenerationPipeline(model, tokenizer)   
>>> text_generator("[CLS]梅 山 如 积 翠 ,", max_length=100, do_sample=True)
    [{'generated_text': '[CLS]梅 山 如 积 翠 , 秀 出 何 其 雄 。 矫 矫 云 间 质 , 映 日 生 玲 珑 。 根 大 乱 石 结 , 枝 高 青 云 蒙 。 常 因 风 露 晚 , 隠 映 瑶 台 中 。 忽 闻 山 石 裂 , 万 里 吹 天 风 。 又 觉 此 身 高 , 迥 出 凡 境 空 。 清 影 落 潭 水 , 暗 香 来 逈 峰 。 却 寻 白 太 白 , 月 影 摇 江 东 。 [SEP] 而 非'}]

Training data

Training data contains 800,000 Chinese ancient poems which are collected by chinese-poetry and Poetry projects.

Training procedure

The model is pre-trained by UER-py on Tencent Cloud. We pre-train 200,000 steps with a sequence length of 128. We use extended vocabulary to handle out-of-vocabulary words. The Chinese character that occurs greater than or equal to 100 in poem corpus is added to the vocabulary.

python3 preprocess.py --corpus_path corpora/poem.txt \
                      --vocab_path models/google_zh_poem_vocab.txt \
                      --dataset_path poem_dataset.pt --processes_num 16 \
                      --seq_length 128 --data_processor lm 
python3 pretrain.py --dataset_path poem_dataset.pt \
                    --vocab_path models/google_zh_poem_vocab.txt \
                    --config_path models/gpt2/config.json \
                    --output_model_path models/poem_gpt2_model.bin \
                    --world_size 8 --gpu_ranks 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 \
                    --total_steps 200000 --save_checkpoint_steps 50000 --report_steps 1000 \
                    --learning_rate 5e-4 --batch_size 64

Finally, we convert the pre-trained model into Huggingface's format:

python3 scripts/convert_gpt2_from_uer_to_huggingface.py --input_model_path models/poem_gpt2_model.bin-200000 \
                                                        --output_model_path pytorch_model.bin \
                                                        --layers_num 12
