doc2query/msmarco-arabic-mt5-base-v1

This is a doc2query model based on mT5 (also known as docT5query).

It can be used for:

• Document expansion: You generate for your paragraphs 20-40 queries and index the paragraphs and the generates queries in a standard BM25 index like Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, or Lucene. The generated queries help to close the lexical gap of lexical search, as the generate queries contain synonyms. Further, it re-weights words giving important words a higher weight even if they appear seldomn in a paragraph. In our BEIR paper we showed that BM25+docT5query is a powerful search engine. In the BEIR repository we have an example how to use docT5query with Pyserini.
• Domain Specific Training Data Generation: It can be used to generate training data to learn an embedding model. In our GPL-Paper / GPL Example on SBERT.net we have an example how to use the model to generate (query, text) pairs for a given collection of unlabeled texts. These pairs can then be used to train powerful dense embedding models.

Usage

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM
import torch

model_name = 'doc2query/msmarco-arabic-mt5-base-v1'
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained(model_name)

text = "بايثون (بالإنجليزية: Python)‏ هي لغة برمجة، عالية المستوى سهلة التعلم مفتوحة المصدر قابلة للتوسيع، تعتمد أسلوب البرمجة الكائنية (OOP). لغة بايثون هي لغة مُفسَّرة، ومُتعدِدة الاستخدامات، وتستخدم بشكل واسع في العديد من المجالات، كبناء البرامج المستقلة باستخدام الواجهات الرسومية وفي تطبيقات الويب، ويمكن استخدامها كلغة برمجة نصية للتحكم في أداء العديد من البرمجيات مثل بلندر. بشكل عام، يمكن استخدام بايثون لعمل البرامج البسيطة للمبتدئين، ولإنجاز المشاريع الضخمة في الوقت نفسه. غالباً ما يُنصح المبتدؤون في ميدان البرمجة بتعلم هذه اللغة لأنها من بين أسرع اللغات البرمجية تعلماً."

        beam_outputs = model.generate(
            input_ids=input_ids, 
            max_length=64, 
            num_beams=5, 
            no_repeat_ngram_size=2, 
            num_return_sequences=5,

    print("Paragraph:")
    print(para)
    
    print("\nBeam Outputs:")
    for i in range(len(beam_outputs)):
        query = tokenizer.decode(beam_outputs[i], skip_special_tokens=True)
        print(f'{i + 1}: {query}')

    print("\nSampling Outputs:")
    for i in range(len(sampling_outputs)):
        query = tokenizer.decode(sampling_outputs[i], skip_special_tokens=True)
        print(f'{i + 1}: {query}')

Note: model.generate() is non-deterministic for top_k/top_n sampling. It produces different queries each time you run it.

Training

This model fine-tuned google/mt5-base for 66k training steps (4 epochs on the 500k training pairs from MS MARCO). For the training script, see the train_script.py in this repository.

The input-text was truncated to 320 word pieces. Output text was generated up to 64 word pieces.

This model was trained on a (query, passage) from the mMARCO dataset.
