prophetnet-large-uncased

Pretrained weights for ProphetNet . ProphetNet is a new pre-trained language model for sequence-to-sequence learning with a novel self-supervised objective called future n-gram prediction. ProphetNet is able to predict more future tokens with a n-stream decoder. The original implementation is Fairseq version at github repo .

Usage

This pre-trained model can be fine-tuned on sequence-to-sequence tasks. The model could e.g. be trained on headline generation as follows:

from transformers import ProphetNetForConditionalGeneration, ProphetNetTokenizer

model = ProphetNetForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("microsoft/prophetnet-large-uncased")
tokenizer = ProphetNetTokenizer.from_pretrained("microsoft/prophetnet-large-uncased")

input_str = "the us state department said wednesday it had received no formal word from bolivia that it was expelling the us ambassador there but said the charges made against him are `` baseless ."
target_str = "us rejects charges against its ambassador in bolivia"

input_ids = tokenizer(input_str, return_tensors="pt").input_ids
labels = tokenizer(target_str, return_tensors="pt").input_ids

loss = model(input_ids, labels=labels).loss
