WebOrganizer/FormatClassifier-NoURL

[Paper] [Website] [GitHub]

The FormatClassifier-NoURL organizes web content into 24 categories based on the text contents of web pages (without using URL information). The model is a gte-base-en-v1.5 with 140M parameters fine-tuned on the following training data:

1. WebOrganizer/FormatAnnotations-Llama-3.1-8B: 1M documents annotated by Llama-3.1-8B (first-stage training)
2. WebOrganizer/FormatAnnotations-Llama-3.1-405B-FP8: 100K documents annotated by Llama-3.1-405B-FP8 (second-stage training)

All Domain Classifiers

• WebOrganizer/FormatClassifier
• WebOrganizer/FormatClassifier-NoURL ← you are here!
• WebOrganizer/TopicClassifier
• WebOrganizer/TopicClassifier-NoURL

Usage

This classifier expects input in the following format:

{text}

Example:

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("WebOrganizer/FormatClassifier-NoURL")
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(
    "WebOrganizer/FormatClassifier-NoURL",
    trust_remote_code=True,
    use_memory_efficient_attention=False)

web_page = """How to make a good sandwich? [Click here to read article]"""

inputs = tokenizer([web_page], return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model(**inputs)

probs = outputs.logits.softmax(dim=-1)
print(probs.argmax(dim=-1))
# -> 6 ("Truncated" format, which covers incomplete content)

You can convert the logits of the model with a softmax to obtain a probability distribution over the following 24 categories (in order of labels, also see id2label and label2id in the model config):

Efficient Inference

We recommend that you use the efficient gte-base-en-v1.5 implementation by enabling unpadding and memory efficient attention. This requires installing xformers (see more here) and loading the model like:

AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(
    "WebOrganizer/FormatClassifier-NoURL",
    trust_remote_code=True,
    unpad_inputs=True,
    use_memory_efficient_attention=True,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
)
