# <a name="introduction"></a> ViSoBERT: A Pre-Trained Language Model for Vietnamese Social Media Text Processing (EMNLP 2023 - Main)
**Disclaimer**: The paper contains actual comments on social networks that might be construed as abusive, offensive, or obscene.

ViSoBERT is the state-of-the-art language model for Vietnamese social media tasks:

 - ViSoBERT is the first monolingual MLM (XLM-R architecture) from scratch specifically for Vietnamese social media text.
 - ViSoBERT outperforms previous monolingual, multilingual, and multilingual social media approaches, obtaining new state-of-the-art performances on four downstream Vietnamese social media tasks.

The general architecture and experimental results of ViSoBERT can be found in our [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.11166):

**Installation** 

Install `transformers` and `SentencePiece` packages:
    
    pip install transformers
    pip install SentencePiece

**Example usage**
```python
from transformers import AutoModel,AutoTokenizer
import torch

model= AutoModel.from_pretrained('uitnlp/visobert')
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('uitnlp/visobert')

encoding = tokenizer('dau xanh rau ma',return_tensors='pt')

with torch.no_grad():
  output = model(**encoding)
```
