Here is how to use this model to get the features of a given text in PyTorch:
from transformers import BertTokenizer, BertModel
tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained('zanelim/singbert')
model = BertModel.from_pretrained("zanelim/singbert")
text = "Replace me by any text you'd like."
encoded_input = tokenizer(text, return_tensors='pt')
output = model(**encoded_input)
and in TensorFlow:
from transformers import BertTokenizer, TFBertModel
tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("zanelim/singbert")
model = TFBertModel.from_pretrained("zanelim/singbert")
text = "Replace me by any text you'd like."
encoded_input = tokenizer(text, return_tensors='tf')
output = model(encoded_input)
Limitations and bias
This model was finetuned on colloquial Singlish and Manglish corpus, hence it is best applied on downstream tasks involving the main constituent languages- english, mandarin, malay. Also, as the training data is mainly from forums, beware of existing inherent bias.
Training data
Colloquial singlish and manglish (both are a mixture of English, Mandarin, Tamil, Malay, and other local dialects like Hokkien, Cantonese or Teochew)
corpus. The corpus is collected from subreddits- r/singapore
and r/malaysia
, and forums such as hardwarezone
.
Training procedure
Initialized with bert base uncased vocab and checkpoints (pre-trained weights). Top 1000 custom vocab tokens (non-overlapped with original bert vocab) were further extracted from training data and filled into unused tokens in original bert vocab.
Pre-training was further finetuned on training data with the following hyperparameters
- train_batch_size: 512
- max_seq_length: 128
- num_train_steps: 300000
- num_warmup_steps: 5000
- learning_rate: 2e-5
- hardware: TPU v3-8
