# PAGnol: An Extra-Large French Generative Model |

PAGnol is a collection of large French language models, geared towards free-form text generation. With 1.5 billion parameters. PAGnol is based on the [GPT](https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.14165) architecture. PAGnol is the first language model trained by [LightOn](https://lighton.ai/), in cooperation with the [ALMAnaCH team of Inria](http://almanach.inria.fr/index-en.html). |
|
|
|
These model were trained in early 2021 following the then [scaling laws](https://arxiv.org/abs/2001.08361) and using the exact same training data as the [CamemBERT](https://camembert-model.fr/) model trained on [CCNet](https://github.com/facebookresearch/cc_net). We make it available for reproducibility purposes. |
|
They do not constitute the current state of the art nor are they aiming at it. |
|
|
|
PAGnol was built by [Julien Launay](https://lolo.science/), E.L. Tommasone, [Baptiste Pannier](https://www.linkedin.com/in/baptiste-pannier-b30758154/), [François Boniface](https://www.linkedin.com/in/fran%c3%a7ois-boniface-26313610b/), [Amélie Chatelain](https://www.instagram.com/amelietabatta/), [Iacopo Poli](https://twitter.com/iacopo_poli), and [Djamé Seddah](http://pauillac.inria.fr/~seddah/). It is named after Marcel Pagnol (with PAG standing for pré-apprentissage génératif), and was trained on the IDRIS Jean Zay supercomputer thanks to a GENCI allocation. |
|
|
|
The model was converted to the Hugging Face format by [Wissam Antoun](https://wissamantoun.com) ([ALMAnaCH](http://almanach.inria.fr/index-en.html)'s PhD student, co-supervised by [Benoît Sagot](https://pauillac.inria.fr/~sagot/) and [Djamé Seddah](http://pauillac.inria.fr/~seddah/)) |

# Usage |
|
|
|
### Using PAGnol with Huggingface |
|
```python |
|
from transformers import pipeline |
|
|
|
generator = pipeline('text-generation', model='lightonai/pagnol-small', trust_remote_code=True) |
|
|
|
output = generator( |
|
"Salut PAGnol, comment ça va ?", |
|
max_length=50, |
|
do_sample=True, |
|
temperature=0.7, |
|
)[0]["generated_text"] |
|
|
|
>>> "Très bien! Les jours d’été sont là ! Bientôt les premiers festivals..." |
|
``` |
|
|
|
### Using PAGnol with lairgpt |
|
Head over to our [GitHub repository](https://github.com/lightonai/lairgpt) to access our PyTorch inference code. |
|
Using PAGnol is as simple as running the following code: |
|
```python |
|
from lairgpt.models import PAGnol |
|
|
|
pagnol = PAGnol.small() |
|
pagnol("Salut PAGnol, comment ça va ?") |
|
|
|
>>> "Très bien! Les jours d’été sont là ! Bientôt les premiers festivals..." |
|
``` |
