# tinyroberta for Extractive QA
This is the *distilled* version of the [deepset/roberta-base-squad2](https://huggingface.co/deepset/roberta-base-squad2) model. This model has a comparable prediction quality and runs at twice the speed of the base model.
## Overview
**Language model:** tinyroberta-squad2
**Language:** English
**Downstream-task:** Extractive QA
**Training data:** SQuAD 2.0
**Eval data:** SQuAD 2.0
**Code:** See [an example extractive QA pipeline built with Haystack](https://haystack.deepset.ai/tutorials/34_extractive_qa_pipeline)
**Infrastructure**: 4x Tesla v100
## Hyperparameters
```
batch_size = 96
n_epochs = 4
base_LM_model = "deepset/tinyroberta-squad2-step1"
max_seq_len = 384
learning_rate = 3e-5
lr_schedule = LinearWarmup
warmup_proportion = 0.2
doc_stride = 128
max_query_length = 64
distillation_loss_weight = 0.75
temperature = 1.5
teacher = "deepset/robert-large-squad2"
```
## Distillation
This model was distilled using the TinyBERT approach described in [this paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1909.10351.pdf) and implemented in [haystack](https://github.com/deepset-ai/haystack).
Firstly, we have performed intermediate layer distillation with roberta-base as the teacher which resulted in [deepset/tinyroberta-6l-768d](https://huggingface.co/deepset/tinyroberta-6l-768d).
Secondly, we have performed task-specific distillation with [deepset/roberta-base-squad2](https://huggingface.co/deepset/roberta-base-squad2) as the teacher for further intermediate layer distillation on an augmented version of SQuADv2 and then with [deepset/roberta-large-squad2](https://huggingface.co/deepset/roberta-large-squad2) as the teacher for prediction layer distillation.
## Usage
### In Haystack
Haystack is an AI orchestration framework to build customizable, production-ready LLM applications. You can use this model in Haystack to do extractive question answering on documents.
To load and run the model with [Haystack](https://github.com/deepset-ai/haystack/):
```python
# After running pip install haystack-ai "transformers[torch,sentencepiece]"
from haystack import Document
from haystack.components.readers import ExtractiveReader
docs = [
Document(content="Python is a popular programming language"),
Document(content="python ist eine beliebte Programmiersprache"),
]
reader = ExtractiveReader(model="deepset/tinyroberta-squad2")
reader.warm_up()
question = "What is a popular programming language?"
result = reader.run(query=question, documents=docs)
# {'answers': [ExtractedAnswer(query='What is a popular programming language?', score=0.5740374326705933, data='python', document=Document(id=..., content: '...'), context=None, document_offset=ExtractedAnswer.Span(start=0, end=6),...)]}
```
For a complete example with an extractive question answering pipeline that scales over many documents, check out the [corresponding Haystack tutorial](https://haystack.deepset.ai/tutorials/34_extractive_qa_pipeline).
### In Transformers
```python
from transformers import AutoModelForQuestionAnswering, AutoTokenizer, pipeline
model_name = "deepset/tinyroberta-squad2"
# a) Get predictions
nlp = pipeline('question-answering', model=model_name, tokenizer=model_name)
QA_input = {
'question': 'Why is model conversion important?',
'context': 'The option to convert models between FARM and transformers gives freedom to the user and let people easily switch between frameworks.'
}
res = nlp(QA_input)
# b) Load model & tokenizer
model = AutoModelForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained(model_name)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
```
## Performance
Evaluated on the SQuAD 2.0 dev set with the [official eval script](https://worksheets.codalab.org/rest/bundles/0x6b567e1cf2e041ec80d7098f031c5c9e/contents/blob/).
