# reStructured Pre-training (RST) |
|
official [repository](https://github.com/ExpressAI/reStructured-Pretraining), [paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2206.11147.pdf), [easter eggs](http://expressai.co/peripherals/emoji-eng.html) |
|
|
|
#### RST is a new paradigm for language pre-training, which |
|
* unifies **26** different types of signal from **10** data sources (Totten Tomatoes, Dailymail, Wikipedia, Wikidata, Wikihow, Wordnet, arXiv etc ) in the world structurally, being pre-trained with a monolithcal model, |
|
* surpasses strong competitors (e.g., T0) on **52/55** popular datasets from a variety of NLP tasks (classification, IE, retrieval, generation etc) |
|
* achieves superior performance in National College Entrance Examination **(Gaokao-English, 高考-英语)** achieves **40** points higher than the average scores made by students and 15 points higher than GPT3 with **1/16** parameters. In particular, Qin gets a high score of **138.5** (the full mark is 150) in the 2018 English exam |
|
|
|
In such a pre-training paradigm, |
|
* Data-centric Pre-training: the role of data will be re-emphasized, and model pre-training and fine-tuning of downstream tasks are viewed as a process of data storing and accessing |
|
* Pre-training over JSON instead of TEXT: a good storage mechanism should not only have the ability to cache a large amount of data but also consider the ease of access. |

## Have a try? |
|
```python |
|
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM |
|
|
|
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("XLab/rst-all-11b") |
|
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained("XLab/rst-all-11b") |
|
|
|
inputs = tokenizer.encode("TEXT: this is the best cast iron skillet you will ever buy. QUERY: Is this review \"positive\" or \"negative\"", return_tensors="pt") |
|
outputs = model.generate(inputs) |
|
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True, clean_up_tokenization_spaces=True)) |
|
``` |

## Data for reStructure Pre-training |
|
This dataset is a precious treasure, containing a variety of naturally occurring signals. Any downstream task you can think of (e.g., the college entrance exam mentioned in the RST paper) can benefit from being pre-trained on some of our provided signals. We spent several months collecting the following 29 signal types, accounting for a total of 46,926,447 data samples. We hope this dataset will be a valuable asset for everyone in natural language processing research. |
|
|
|
We provide collected signals through [DataLab](https://github.com/ExpressAI/DataLab). For efficiency, we only provide 50,000 samples at most for each signal type. If you want all the samples we collected, please fill this [form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdPO50vSdfwoO3D7DQDVlupQnHgrXrwfF3ePE4X1H6BwgTn5g/viewform?usp=sf_link). More specifically, we collected the following signals. |
