bert-base-uncased-squad-v1

BERT-base uncased model fine-tuned on SQuAD v1

This model was fine-tuned from the HuggingFace BERT base uncased checkpoint on SQuAD1.1. This model is case-insensitive: it does not make a difference between english and English.

Details

Fine-tuning

• Python: 3.7.5

• Machine specs:

  CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6800K CPU @ 3.40GHz

  Memory: 32 GiB

  GPUs: 2 GeForce GTX 1070, each with 8GiB memory

  GPU driver: 418.87.01, CUDA: 10.1

• script:

  # after install https://github.com/huggingface/transformers
  
  cd examples/question-answering
  mkdir -p data
  
  wget -O data/train-v1.1.json https://rajpurkar.github.io/SQuAD-explorer/dataset/train-v1.1.json

Example Usage

from transformers import pipeline

qa_pipeline = pipeline(
    "question-answering",
    model="csarron/bert-base-uncased-squad-v1",
    tokenizer="csarron/bert-base-uncased-squad-v1"
)

predictions = qa_pipeline({
    'context': "The game was played on February 7, 2016 at Levi's Stadium in the San Francisco Bay Area at Santa Clara, California.",
    'question': "What day was the game played on?"
})

print(predictions)
# output:
# {'score': 0.8730505704879761, 'start': 23, 'end': 39, 'answer': 'February 7, 2016'}
