RoBERTa: A Robustly Optimized BERT Pretraining Approach (Liu et al.)

Implementation of the RoBERTa language model (https://arxiv.org/abs/1907.11692 Liu, Ott, Goyal, Du, Joshi, Chen, Levy, Lewis, Zettlemoyer, Stoyanov, 2019). The base model is implemented in the bert_model::BertModel struct. Several language model heads have also been implemented, including:

  • Masked language model: roberta_model::RobertaForMaskedLM
  • Multiple choices: roberta_model:RobertaForMultipleChoice
  • Question answering: roberta_model::RobertaForQuestionAnswering
  • Sequence classification: roberta_model::RobertaForSequenceClassification
  • Token classification (e.g. NER, POS tagging): roberta_model::RobertaForTokenClassification

Model set-up and pre-trained weights loading

The example below illustrate a Masked language model example, the structure is similar for other models. All models expect the following resources:

  • Configuration file expected to have a structure following the Transformers library
  • Model weights are expected to have a structure and parameter names following the Transformers library. A conversion using the Python utility scripts is required to convert the .bin weights to the .ot format.
  • RobertaTokenizer using a vocab.txt vocabulary and merges.txt 2-gram merges Pretrained models are available and can be downloaded using RemoteResources.
