readme: # DistilBERT-Base-Uncased for Duplicate Question Detection
  This model is a fine-tuned version of [distilbert-base-uncased](https://huggingface.co/distilbert-base-uncased) originally released in ["DistilBERT, a distilled version of BERT: smaller, faster, cheaper and lighter"](https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.01108) and trained on the [Quora Question Pairs](https://quoradata.quora.com/First-Quora-Dataset-Release-Question-Pairs) dataset; part of the [General Language Understanding Evaluation (GLUE)](https://gluebenchmark.com) benchmark. This model was fine-tuned by the team at [AssemblyAI](https://www.assemblyai.com) and is released with the [corresponding blog post]().  
  
  ## Usage
  To download and utilize this model for duplicate question detection please execute the following:
  ```python
  import torch.nn.functional as F 
  from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification
  tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("assemblyai/distilbert-base-uncased-qqp")
  model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("assemblyai/distilbert-base-uncased-qqp")
  
  tokenized_segments = tokenizer(["How many hours does it take to fly from California to New York?"], ["What is the flight time from New York to Seattle?"], return_tensors="pt", padding=True, truncation=True)
  tokenized_segments_input_ids, tokenized_segments_attention_mask = tokenized_segments.input_ids, tokenized_segments.attention_mask
  model_predictions = F.softmax(model(input_ids=tokenized_segments_input_ids, attention_mask=tokenized_segments_attention_mask)['logits'], dim=1)
  
  print("Duplicate probability: "+str(model_predictions[0][1].item()*100)+"%")
  print("Non-duplicate probability: "+str(model_predictions[0][0].item()*100)+"%")
  ```
