bertin-roberta-base-finetuning-esnli

This is a sentence-transformers model trained on a collection of NLI tasks for Spanish. It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 768 dimensional dense vector space and can be used for tasks like clustering or semantic search.

Based around the siamese networks approach from this paper.

You can see a demo for this model here.

You can find our other model, paraphrase-spanish-distilroberta here and its demo here.

Usage (Sentence-Transformers)

Using this model becomes easy when you have sentence-transformers installed:

pip install -U sentence-transformers

Then you can use the model like this:

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
sentences = ["Este es un ejemplo", "Cada oración es transformada"]

model = SentenceTransformer('hackathon-pln-es/bertin-roberta-base-finetuning-esnli')
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings)

Usage (HuggingFace Transformers)

Without sentence-transformers, you can use the model like this: First, you pass your input through the transformer model, then you have to apply the right pooling-operation on-top of the contextualized word embeddings.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
import torch


#Mean Pooling - Take attention mask into account for correct averaging
def mean_pooling(model_output, attention_mask):
    token_embeddings = model_output[0] #First element of model_output contains all token embeddings
    input_mask_expanded = attention_mask.unsqueeze(-1).expand(token_embeddings.size()).float()
    return torch.sum(token_embeddings * input_mask_expanded, 1) / torch.clamp(input_mask_expanded.sum(1), min=1e-9)


# Sentences we want sentence embeddings for
sentences = ['This is an example sentence', 'Each sentence is converted']

# Load model from HuggingFace Hub
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('hackathon-pln-es/bertin-roberta-base-finetuning-esnli')
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('hackathon-pln-es/bertin-roberta-base-finetuning-esnli')

# Tokenize sentences
encoded_input = tokenizer(sentences, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt')

# Compute token embeddings
with torch.no_grad():
    model_output = model(**encoded_input)

# Perform pooling. In this case, mean pooling.
sentence_embeddings = mean_pooling(model_output, encoded_input['attention_mask'])

print("Sentence embeddings:")
print(sentence_embeddings)

Training

The model was trained with the parameters:

Dataset

We used a collection of datasets of Natural Language Inference as training data:

ESXNLI, only the part in spanish
SNLI, automatically translated
MultiNLI, automatically translated

The whole dataset used is available here.

Here we leave the trick we used to increase the amount of data for training here:

  for row in reader:
    if row['language'] == 'es':
      
      sent1 = row['sentence1'].strip()
      sent2 = row['sentence2'].strip()
    
      add_to_samples(sent1, sent2, row['gold_label'])
      add_to_samples(sent2, sent1, row['gold_label'])  #Also add the opposite

DataLoader:

sentence_transformers.datasets.NoDuplicatesDataLoader.NoDuplicatesDataLoader of length 1818 with parameters:

{'batch_size': 64}

Loss:

sentence_transformers.losses.MultipleNegativesRankingLoss.MultipleNegativesRankingLoss with parameters:

{'scale': 20.0, 'similarity_fct': 'cos_sim'}
