PhoBERT

Overview

The PhoBERT model was proposed in PhoBERT: Pre-trained language models for Vietnamese by Dat Quoc Nguyen, Anh Tuan Nguyen.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

We present PhoBERT with two versions, PhoBERT-base and PhoBERT-large, the first public large-scale monolingual language models pre-trained for Vietnamese. Experimental results show that PhoBERT consistently outperforms the recent best pre-trained multilingual model XLM-R (Conneau et al., 2020) and improves the state-of-the-art in multiple Vietnamese-specific NLP tasks including Part-of-speech tagging, Dependency parsing, Named-entity recognition and Natural language inference.

This model was contributed by dqnguyen. The original code can be found here.

Usage example

>>> import torch
>>> from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer

>>> phobert = AutoModel.from_pretrained("vinai/phobert-base")
>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("vinai/phobert-base")

>>> # INPUT TEXT MUST BE ALREADY WORD-SEGMENTED!
>>> line = "Tôi là sinh_viên trường đại_học Công_nghệ ."

>>> input_ids = torch.tensor([tokenizer.encode(line)])

>>> with torch.no_grad():
...     features = phobert(input_ids)  # Models outputs are now tuples

PhoBERT implementation is the same as BERT, except for tokenization. Refer to BERT documentation for information on configuration classes and their parameters. PhoBERT-specific tokenizer is documented below.
