# deberta-base-nepali

This model is pre-trained on [nepalitext](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Sakonii/nepalitext-language-model-dataset) dataset consisting of over 13 million Nepali text sequences using a masked language modeling (MLM) objective. Our approach trains a Sentence Piece Model (SPM) for text tokenization similar to [XLM-ROBERTa](https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.02116) and trains [DeBERTa](https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.03654) for language modeling. Find more details in [this paper](https://aclanthology.org/2022.sigul-1.14/).

It achieves the following results on the evaluation set:

mlm probability|evaluation loss|evaluation perplexity

## Model description

Refer to original [microsoft/deberta-base](https://huggingface.co/microsoft/deberta-base)

## Intended uses & limitations

This backbone model intends to be fine-tuned on Nepali language focused downstream task such as sequence classification, token classification or question answering. 
The language model being trained on a data with texts grouped to a block size of 512, it handles text sequence up to 512 tokens and may not perform satisfactorily on shorter sequences.

## Usage

This model can be used directly with a pipeline for masked language modeling:

```python
>>> from transformers import pipeline
>>> unmasker = pipeline('fill-mask', model='Sakonii/deberta-base-nepali')
>>> unmasker("मानविय गतिविधिले प्रातृतिक पर्यावरन प्रनालीलाई अपरिमेय क्षति पु्र्याएको छ। परिवर्तनशिल जलवायुले खाध, सुरक्षा, <mask>, जमिन, मौसमलगायतलाई असंख्य तरिकाले प्रभावित छ।")

  ```

Here is how we can use the model to get the features of a given text in PyTorch:

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForMaskedLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('Sakonii/deberta-base-nepali')
model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained('Sakonii/deberta-base-nepali')

# prepare input
text = "चाहिएको text यता राख्नु होला।"
encoded_input = tokenizer(text, return_tensors='pt')

# forward pass
output = model(**encoded_input)
```

## Training data

This model is trained on [nepalitext](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Sakonii/nepalitext-language-model-dataset) language modeling dataset which combines the datasets: [OSCAR](https://huggingface.co/datasets/oscar) , [cc100](https://huggingface.co/datasets/cc100) and a set of scraped Nepali articles on Wikipedia.
As for training the language model, the texts in the training set are grouped to a block of 512 tokens.

## Tokenization

A Sentence Piece Model (SPM) is trained on a subset of [nepalitext](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Sakonii/nepalitext-language-model-dataset) dataset for text tokenization. The tokenizer trained with vocab-size=24576, min-frequency=4, limit-alphabet=1000 and model-max-length=512.

## Training procedure
The model is trained with the same configuration as the original [microsoft/deberta-base](https://huggingface.co/microsoft/deberta-base); 512 tokens per instance, 6 instances per batch, and around 188.8K training steps (per epoch).
