	<span>Overview
	</span></h2>

ERNIE is a series of powerful models proposed by baidu, especially in Chinese tasks,
including [ERNIE1.0](https://arxiv.org/abs/1904.09223), [ERNIE2.0](https://ojs.aaai.org/index.php/AAAI/article/view/6428),
[ERNIE3.0](https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.02137), [ERNIE-Gram](https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.12148), [ERNIE-health](https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.07244), etc.
<p>These models are contributed by <a href="https://huggingface.co/nghuyong" rel="nofollow">nghuyong</a> and the official code can be found in <a href="https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleNLP" rel="nofollow">PaddleNLP</a> (in PaddlePaddle).</p>

<p>This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/model_doc/ernie#transformers.ErnieModel">ErnieModel</a> or a <code>TFErnieModel</code>. It is used to
instantiate a ERNIE model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a
configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the ERNIE
<a href="https://huggingface.co/nghuyong/ernie-3.0-base-zh" rel="nofollow">nghuyong/ernie-3.0-base-zh</a> architecture.</p>

<p>The bare Ernie Model transformer outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.</p>
<p>This model inherits from <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel">PreTrainedModel</a>. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)</p>
<p>This model is also a PyTorch <a href="https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module" rel="nofollow">torch.nn.Module</a> subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.</p>
<p>The model can behave as an encoder (with only self-attention) as well as a decoder, in which case a layer of
cross-attention is added between the self-attention layers, following the architecture described in <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03762" rel="nofollow">Attention is
all you need</a> by Ashish Vaswani, Noam Shazeer, Niki Parmar, Jakob Uszkoreit,
Llion Jones, Aidan N. Gomez, Lukasz Kaiser and Illia Polosukhin.</p>
<p>To behave as an decoder the model needs to be initialized with the <code>is_decoder</code> argument of the configuration set
to <code>True</code>. To be used in a Seq2Seq model, the model needs to initialized with both <code>is_decoder</code> argument and
<code>add_cross_attention</code> set to <code>True</code>; an <code>encoder_hidden_states</code> is then expected as an input to the forward pass.</p>

<p>Ernie Model with two heads on top as done during the pretraining: a <code>masked language modeling</code> head and a <code>next sentence prediction (classification)</code> head.</p>
<p>This model inherits from <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel">PreTrainedModel</a>. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)</p>
<p>This model is also a PyTorch <a href="https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module" rel="nofollow">torch.nn.Module</a> subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.</p>

<p>Ernie Model with a <code>language modeling</code> head on top for CLM fine-tuning.</p>
<p>This model inherits from <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel">PreTrainedModel</a>. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)</p>
<p>This model is also a PyTorch <a href="https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module" rel="nofollow">torch.nn.Module</a> subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.</p>

<p>Ernie Model with a <code>language modeling</code> head on top.</p>
<p>This model inherits from <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel">PreTrainedModel</a>. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)</p>
<p>This model is also a PyTorch <a href="https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module" rel="nofollow">torch.nn.Module</a> subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.</p>

<p>Ernie Model with a <code>next sentence prediction (classification)</code> head on top.</p>
<p>This model inherits from <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel">PreTrainedModel</a>. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)</p>
<p>This model is also a PyTorch <a href="https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module" rel="nofollow">torch.nn.Module</a> subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.</p>

<p>Ernie Model with a token classification head on top (a linear layer on top of the hidden-states output) e.g. for
Named-Entity-Recognition (NER) tasks.</p>
<p>This model inherits from <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel">PreTrainedModel</a>. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)</p>
<p>This model is also a PyTorch <a href="https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module" rel="nofollow">torch.nn.Module</a> subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.</p>

<p>This model inherits from <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel">PreTrainedModel</a>. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)</p>
<p>This model is also a PyTorch <a href="https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module" rel="nofollow">torch.nn.Module</a> subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.</p>
