Chinese T5

Model description

This is the set of Chinese T5 models pre-trained by UER-py, which is introduced in this paper.

The Text-to-Text Transfer Transformer (T5) leverages a unified text-to-text format and attains state-of-the-art results on a wide variety of English-language NLP tasks. Following their work, we released a series of Chinese T5 models.

You can download the set of Chinese T5 models either from the UER-py Modelzoo page, or via HuggingFace from the links below:

T5-Small	L=6/H=512 (Small)
T5-Base	L=12/H=768 (Base)

In T5, spans of the input sequence are masked by so-called sentinel token. Each sentinel token represents a unique mask token for the input sequence and should start with <extra_id_0>, <extra_id_1>, … up to <extra_id_99>. However, <extra_id_xxx> is separated into multiple parts in Huggingface's Hosted inference API. Therefore, we replace <extra_id_xxx> with extraxxx in vocabulary and BertTokenizer regards extraxxx as one sentinel token.

How to use

You can use this model directly with a pipeline for text2text generation (take the case of T5-Small):

python

>>> from transformers import BertTokenizer, T5ForConditionalGeneration, Text2TextGenerationPipeline
>>> tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("uer/t5-small-chinese-cluecorpussmall")
>>> model = T5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("uer/t5-small-chinese-cluecorpussmall")
>>> text2text_generator = Text2TextGenerationPipeline(model, tokenizer)  
>>> text2text_generator("中国的首都是extra0京", max_length=50, do_sample=False)
    [{'generated_text': 'extra0 北 extra1 extra2 extra3 extra4 extra5'}]

Training data

CLUECorpusSmall is used as training data.

Training procedure

The model is pre-trained by UER-py on Tencent Cloud. We pre-train 1,000,000 steps with a sequence length of 128 and then pre-train 250,000 additional steps with a sequence length of 512. We use the same hyper-parameters on different model sizes.

Taking the case of T5-Small

                    --span_masking --span_geo_prob 0.3 --span_max_length 5

Stage2:

python3 preprocess.py --corpus_path corpora/cluecorpussmall.txt \
                      --vocab_path models/google_zh_with_sentinel_vocab.txt \
                      --dataset_path cluecorpussmall_t5_small_seq512_dataset.pt \

                    --span_masking --span_geo_prob 0.3 --span_max_length 5

Finally, we convert the pre-trained model into Huggingface's format:

python3 scripts/convert_t5_from_uer_to_huggingface.py --input_model_path cluecorpussmall_t5_small_seq512_model.bin-250000 \
                                                      --output_model_path pytorch_model.bin \
                                                      --layers_num 6 \
                                                      --type t5
