# RED^{FM}: a Filtered and Multilingual Relation Extraction Dataset

This a multilingual version of [REBEL](https://huggingface.co/Babelscape/rebel-large). It can be used as a standalone multulingual Relation Extraction system, or as a pretrained system to be tuned on multilingual Relation Extraction datasets.

mREBEL is introduced in the ACL 2023 paper [RED^{FM}: a Filtered and Multilingual Relation Extraction Dataset](https://github.com/Babelscape/rebel/blob/main/docs/). We present a new multilingual Relation Extraction dataset and train a multilingual version of REBEL which reframed Relation Extraction as a seq2seq task. The paper can be found [here](https://github.com/Babelscape/rebel/blob/main/docs/). If you use the code or model, please reference this work in your paper:

The original repository for the paper can be found [here](https://github.com/Babelscape/rebel)

Be aware that the inference widget at the right does not output special tokens, which are necessary to distinguish the subject, object and relation types. For a demo of REBEL and its pre-training dataset check the [Spaces demo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/Babelscape/rebel-demo).

## Pipeline usage

```python
from transformers import pipeline

triplet_extractor = pipeline('text2text-generation', model='Babelscape/mrebel-large', tokenizer='Babelscape/mrebel-large')
# We need to use the tokenizer manually since we need special tokens.
extracted_text = triplet_extractor.tokenizer.batch_decode([triplet_extractor("The Red Hot Chili Peppers were formed in Los Angeles by Kiedis, Flea, guitarist Hillel Slovak and drummer Jack Irons.", return_tensors=True, return_text=False)[0]["generated_token_ids"]])
print(extracted_text[0])
# Function to parse the generated text and extract the triplets
def extract_triplets(text):
    triplets = []
    relation, subject, relation, object_ = '', '', '', ''
    text = text.strip()
    current = 'x'
    for token in text.replace("<s>", "").replace("<pad>", "").replace("</s>", "").split():
        if token == "<triplet>":
            current = 't'
            if relation != '':
                triplets.append({'head': subject.strip(), 'type': relation.strip(),'tail': object_.strip()})
                relation = ''
            subject = ''
        elif token == "<subj>":
            current = 's'
            if relation != '':
                triplets.append({'head': subject.strip(), 'type': relation.strip(),'tail': object_.strip()})
            object_ = ''
        elif token == "<obj>":
            current = 'o'
            relation = ''
        else:
            if current == 't':
                subject += ' ' + token
            elif current == 's':
                object_ += ' ' + token
            elif current == 'o':
                relation += ' ' + token
    if subject != '' and relation != '' and object_ != '':
        triplets.append({'head': subject.strip(), 'type': relation.strip(),'tail': object_.strip()})
    return triplets
extracted_triplets = extract_triplets(extracted_text[0])
print(extracted_triplets)
```

## Model and Tokenizer using transformers

```python

        if token == "<triplet>":
            current = 't'
            if relation != '':
                triplets.append({'head': subject.strip(), 'type': relation.strip(),'tail': object_.strip()})
                relation = ''
