Javanese GPT-2 Small

Javanese GPT-2 Small is a language model based on the GPT-2 model. It was trained on the latest (late December 2020) Javanese Wikipedia articles.

The model was originally HuggingFace's pretrained English GPT-2 model and is later fine-tuned on the Javanese dataset. Many of the techniques used are based on a notebook/blog shared by Pierre Guillou, where Pierre Guillou fine-tuned the English GPT-2 model on a Portuguese dataset.

Frameworks used include HuggingFace's Transformers and fast.ai's Deep Learning library. PyTorch was used as the backend framework during training, but the model remains compatible with TensorFlow nonetheless.

Model

`javanese-gpt2-small`	124M	GPT-2 Small	Javanese Wikipedia (319 MB of text)

Evaluation Results

Before fine-tuning, the English GPT-2 model went through a validation step just to see how the model fairs prior to training.

valid loss	perplexity
10.845	51313.62

The model was then trained afterwards for 5 epochs and the following are the results.

epoch	train loss	valid loss	perplexity	total time
0	4.336	4.110	60.94	22:28
1	3.598	3.543	34.58	23:27
2	3.161	3.331	27.98	24:17
3	2.974	3.265	26.18	25:03
4	2.932	3.234	25.39	25:06

How to Use (PyTorch)

Load Model and Byte-level Tokenizer

from transformers import GPT2TokenizerFast, GPT2LMHeadModel
pretrained_name = "w11wo/javanese-gpt2-small"
tokenizer = GPT2TokenizerFast.from_pretrained(pretrained_name)
tokenizer.model_max_length = 1024
model = GPT2LMHeadModel.from_pretrained(pretrained_name)

Generate a Sequence

# sample prompt
prompt = "Jenengku Budi, saka Indonesia"
input_ids = tokenizer.encode(prompt, return_tensors='pt')
model.eval()

# generate output using top-k sampling
sample_outputs = model.generate(input_ids, 
                                pad_token_id=50256,
                                do_sample=True, 
                                max_length=40, 
                                min_length=40,
                                top_k=40,
                                num_return_sequences=1)

for i, sample_output in enumerate(sample_outputs):
    print(tokenizer.decode(sample_output.tolist()))

Disclaimer

Do remember that although the dataset originated from Wikipedia, the model may not always generate factual texts. Additionally, the biases which came from the Wikipedia articles may be carried over into the results of this model.

Credits

Major thanks to Pierre Guillou for sharing his work, which did not only enable me to realize this project but also taught me tons of new, exciting stuff.
