FineWeb-Edu FastText classifier

Model summary

This is a FastText classifier for judging the educational value of web pages based on training data fineweb-edu-llama3-annotations. There are two objectives:

⚡ throughput optimisation: It can classify more than 2000 examples per second in CPU, and so it can be used on-the-fly during pretraining/ to process huge data with CPU.
🧪fasttext vs transformer based model: How does this lightweight model with limited capacity compare to the original model HuggingFaceFW/fineweb-edu-classifier?

The FastText approach is inspired by my independent development of educational classifier based on a different definition of educational value, which can be found at kenhktsui/llm-data-textbook-quality-fasttext-classifier-v2.

🛠️Usage

python

from typing import List
import re
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
import fasttext


model_hf = fasttext.load_model(hf_hub_download("kenhktsui/fineweb-edu-fasttext-classifier", "model.bin"))


def replace_newlines(text: str) -> str:
  return re.sub("\n+", " ", text)


def predict(text_list: List[str]) -> List[dict]:
  text_list = [replace_newlines(text) for text in text_list]
  pred = model_hf.predict(text_list)
  return [{"label": int(l[0].lstrip("__label__")), "score": s[0]}
           for l, s in zip(*pred)]


predict(["Hi"])
# Output: [{'label': 0, 'score': 1.00001}]

📊Evaluation

The last 46867 samples are used as test data, but it's not the exact test data as in HuggingFaceFW/fineweb-edu-classifier

The below table compares FastText model vs transformer based model.

Label	This Model	HuggingFaceFW/fineweb-edu-classifier
0	0.55	0.59
1	0.80	0.81
2	0.50	0.59
3	0.39	0.53
4	0.06	0.44
5	0.00	0.02

Label 0, 1, 2 are comparable to the original model. The performance degradation starts to be noticeable in label 3, and widen further in 4, which is due to limited capacity of fasttext model.
So, this classifer can perform reasonably well in label 0, 1, 2, and also 3 with some degradation.

                       y_pred

The model has a accuracy of 68%, and it is more likely to underpredict educational value than overpredict so. The exhibited conservatism is good for filtering large amount of data.
