RoBERTA-rrQA

roberta-base for QA

This is the roberta-base model, fine-tuned using the SQuAD2.0 dataset. It's been trained on question-answer pairs, including unanswerable questions, for the task of Question Answering.

Overview

Language model: roberta-base
Language: English
Downstream-task: Extractive QA
Training data: SQuAD 2.0
Eval data: SQuAD 2.0

Hyperparameters

batch_size = 96
n_epochs = 2
base_LM_model = "roberta-base"
max_seq_len = 386
learning_rate = 3e-5
lr_schedule = LinearWarmup
warmup_proportion = 0.2
doc_stride=128
max_query_length=64
```  The distilled model has a comparable prediction quality and runs at twice the speed of the base model.

## Usage

### In Haystack
Haystack is an NLP framework by deepset. You can use this model in a Haystack pipeline to do question answering at scale (over many documents). To load the model in [Haystack](https://github.com/deepset-ai/haystack/):
```python
reader = FARMReader(model_name_or_path="Shobhank-iiitdwd/RoBERTA-rrQA")
# or 
reader = TransformersReader(model_name_or_path="Shobhank-iiitdwd/RoBERTA-rrQA",tokenizer="Shobhank-iiitdwd/RoBERTA-rrQA")

In Transformers

from transformers import AutoModelForQuestionAnswering, AutoTokenizer, pipeline

model_name = "Shobhank-iiitdwd/RoBERTA-rrQA"

# 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.
