MobileBERT is a thin version of BERT_LARGE, while equipped with bottleneck structures and a carefully designed balance between self-attentions and feed-forward networks.

The checkpoint used here is the original MobileBert Optimized Uncased English: (uncased_L-24_H-128_B-512_A-4_F-4_OPT) checkpoint.

Details of the downstream task (Q&A) - Dataset 📚

Stanford Question Answering Dataset (SQuAD) is a reading comprehension dataset, consisting of questions posed by crowdworkers on a set of Wikipedia articles, where the answer to every question is a segment of text, or span, from the corresponding reading passage, or the question might be unanswerable. SQuAD v1.1 contains 100,000+ question-answer pairs on 500+ articles.

Model training 🏋️‍

The model was trained on a Tesla P100 GPU and 25GB of RAM with the following command:

bash

python transformers/examples/question-answering/run_squad.py \
  --model_type bert \
  --model_name_or_path 'google/mobilebert-uncased' \
  --do_eval \
  --do_train \
  --do_lower_case \
  --train_file '/content/dataset/train-v1.1.json' \
  --predict_file '/content/dataset/dev-v1.1.json' \
  --per_gpu_train_batch_size 16 \
  --learning_rate 3e-5 \
  --num_train_epochs 5 \
  --max_seq_length 384 \
  --doc_stride 128 \
  --output_dir '/content/output' \
  --overwrite_output_dir \
  --save_steps 1000

It is important to say that this models converges much faster than other ones. So, it is also cheap to fine-tune.

Fast usage with pipelines:

python

from transformers import pipeline
QnA_pipeline = pipeline('question-answering', model='mrm8488/mobilebert-uncased-finetuned-squadv1')
QnA_pipeline({
    'context': 'A new strain of flu that has the potential to become a pandemic has been identified in China by scientists.',
    'question': 'Who did identified it ?'
    })
    
# Output: {'answer': 'scientists.', 'end': 106, 'score': 0.7885545492172241, 'start': 96}
