ru-longformer-base-4096

This is a base Longformer model designed for Russian language. It was initialized from blinoff/roberta-base-russian-v0 weights and has been modified to support a context length of up to 4096 tokens. We fine-tuned it on a dataset of Russian books. For a detailed information check out our post on Habr.

Model attributes:

• 12 attention heads
• 12 hidden layers
• 4096 tokens length of context

The model can be used as-is to produce text embeddings or it can be further fine-tuned for a specific downstream task.

Text embeddings can be produced as follows:

# pip install transformers sentencepiece
import torch
from transformers import LongformerForMaskedLM, LongformerTokenizerFast

model = LongformerModel.from_pretrained('kazzand/ru-longformer-base-4096')
tokenizer = LongformerTokenizerFast.from_pretrained('kazzand/ru-longformer-base-4096')

def get_cls_embedding(text, model, tokenizer, device='cuda'):
    model.to(device)
    batch = tokenizer(text, return_tensors='pt')

    #set global attention for cls token
    global_attention_mask = [
            [1 if token_id == tokenizer.cls_token_id else 0 for token_id in input_ids]
            for input_ids in batch["input_ids"]
        ]

    #add global attention mask to batch
    batch["global_attention_mask"] = torch.tensor(global_attention_mask)

    with torch.no_grad():
        output = model(**batch.to(device))
    return output.last_hidden_state[:,0,:]
