Twitter September 2020 (RoBERTa-base, 103M)
This is a RoBERTa-base model trained on 102.86M tweets until the end of September 2020. More details and performance scores are available in the TimeLMs paper.
Below, we provide some usage examples using the standard Transformers interface. For another interface more suited to comparing predictions and perplexity scores between models trained at different temporal intervals, check the TimeLMs repository.
For other models trained until different periods, check this table.
Preprocess Text
Replace usernames and links for placeholders: "@user" and "http". If you're interested in retaining verified users which were also retained during training, you may keep the users listed here.
def preprocess(text):
preprocessed_text = []
for t in text.split():
if len(t) > 1:
t = '@user' if t[0] == '@' and t.count('@') == 1 else t
t = 'http' if t.startswith('http') else t
preprocessed_text.append(t)
return ' '.join(preprocessed_text)
Example Masked Language Model
from transformers import pipeline, AutoTokenizer
MODEL = "cardiffnlp/twitter-roberta-base-sep2020"
fill_mask = pipeline("fill-mask", model=MODEL, tokenizer=MODEL)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(MODEL)
def pprint(candidates, n):
for i in range(n):
token = tokenizer.decode(candidates[i]['token'])
score = candidates[i]['score']
print("%d) %.5f %s" % (i+1, score, token))
texts = [
"So glad I'm <mask> vaccinated.",
"I keep forgetting to bring a <mask>.",
"Looking forward to watching <mask> Game tonight!",
]
for text in texts:
t = preprocess(text)
print(f"{'-'*30}\n{t}")
candidates = fill_mask(t)
pprint(candidates, 5)
Output:

Example Tweet Embeddings
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel, TFAutoModel
import numpy as np
from scipy.spatial.distance import cosine
from collections import Counter
def get_embedding(text): # naive approach for demonstration
text = preprocess(text)
encoded_input = tokenizer(text, return_tensors='pt')
features = model(**encoded_input)
features = features[0].detach().cpu().numpy()
return np.mean(features[0], axis=0)
MODEL = "cardiffnlp/twitter-roberta-base-sep2020"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(MODEL)
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(MODEL)
query = "The book was awesome"
tweets = ["I just ordered fried chicken 🐣",
"The movie was great",
"What time is the next game?",
"Just finished reading 'Embeddings in NLP'"]
sims = Counter()
for tweet in tweets:
sim = 1 - cosine(get_embedding(query), get_embedding(tweet))
sims[tweet] = sim
print('Most similar to: ', query)
print(f"{'-'*30}")
for idx, (tweet, sim) in enumerate(sims.most_common()):
print("%d) %.5f %s" % (idx+1, sim, tweet))
Output:
Most similar to: The book was awesome
------------------------------
1) 0.99045 The movie was great
2) 0.96650 Just finished reading 'Embeddings in NLP'
3) 0.95947 I just ordered fried chicken 🐣
4) 0.95707 What time is the next game?
Example Feature Extraction

features_mean = np.mean(features[0], axis=0)
#features_max = np.max(features[0], axis=0)
# # Tensorflow
# model = TFAutoModel.from_pretrained(MODEL)
# encoded_input = tokenizer(text, return_tensors='tf')
# features = model(encoded_input)
