This is a BERT base cased model trained on SQuAD v2
Overview
Language model: bert-base-cased
Language: English
Downstream-task: Extractive QA
Training data: SQuAD 2.0
Eval data: SQuAD 2.0
Code: See an example extractive QA pipeline built with Haystack
Usage
In Haystack
Haystack is an AI orchestration framework to build customizable, production-ready LLM applications. You can use this model in Haystack to do extractive question answering on documents. To load and run the model with Haystack:
# After running pip install haystack-ai "transformers[torch,sentencepiece]"
from haystack import Document
from haystack.components.readers import ExtractiveReader
docs = [
Document(content="Python is a popular programming language"),
Document(content="python ist eine beliebte Programmiersprache"),
]
reader = ExtractiveReader(model="deepset/bert-base-cased-squad2")
reader.warm_up()
question = "What is a popular programming language?"
result = reader.run(query=question, documents=docs)
# {'answers': [ExtractedAnswer(query='What is a popular programming language?', score=0.5740374326705933, data='python', document=Document(id=..., content: '...'), context=None, document_offset=ExtractedAnswer.Span(start=0, end=6),...)]}
For a complete example with an extractive question answering pipeline that scales over many documents, check out the corresponding Haystack tutorial.
In Transformers
from transformers import AutoModelForQuestionAnswering, AutoTokenizer, pipeline
model_name = "deepset/bert-base-cased-squad2"
# a) Get predictions
nlp = pipeline('question-answering', model=model_name, tokenizer=model_name)
QA_input = {
'question': 'Why is model conversion important?',
'context': 'The option to convert models between FARM and transformers gives freedom to the user and let people easily switch between frameworks.'
}
res = nlp(QA_input)
# b) Load model & tokenizer
model = AutoModelForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained(model_name)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
