  # mbart-finetuned-saf-micro-job
  
  This model is a fine-tuned version of [facebook/mbart-large-cc25](https://huggingface.co/facebook/mbart-large-cc25) on the [saf_micro_job_german](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Short-Answer-Feedback/saf_micro_job_german) dataset for Short Answer Feedback (SAF), as proposed in [Filighera et al., ACL 2022](https://aclanthology.org/2022.acl-long.587).
  
  ## Model description
  
  This model was built on top of [mBART](https://arxiv.org/abs/2001.08210), which is a sequence-to-sequence denoising auto-encoder pre-trained on large-scale monolingual corpora in many languages.
  
  It expects inputs in the following format:
  ```
  Antwort: [answer] Lösung: [reference_answer] Frage: [question]
  ```
  
  In the example above, `[answer]`, `[reference_answer]` and `[question]` should be replaced by the provided answer, the reference answer and the question to which they refer, respectively.
  
  
  The outputs are formatted as follows:
  ```
  [verification_feedback] Feedback: [feedback]
  ```
  
  Hence, the `[verification_feedback]` label will be one of `Correct`, `Partially correct` or `Incorrect`, while `[feedback]` will be the textual feedback generated by the model according to the given answer.
  
  ## Intended uses & limitations
  
  This model is intended to be used for Short Answer Feedback generation in the context of micro-job training (as conducted on the crowd-worker platform appJobber). Thus, it is not expected to have particularly good performance on sets of questions and answers out of this scope.
  
  It is important to acknowledge that the model underperforms when a question that was not seen during training is given as input for inference. In particular, it tends to classify most answers as being correct and does not provide relevant feedback in such cases. Nevertheless, this limitation could be partially overcome by extending the dataset with the desired question (and associated answers) and fine-tuning it for a few epochs on the new data.  
  
  ## Training and evaluation data
  
  As mentioned previously, the model was trained on the [saf_micro_job_german](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Short-Answer-Feedback/saf_micro_job_german) dataset, which is divided into the following splits.
  
  | Split                 | Number of examples |
  | --------------------- | ------------------ |
  | train                 | 1226	             |
  | validation            | 308	             |
  | test_unseen_answers   | 271	             |
  | test_unseen_questions | 602                |
  
  Evaluation was performed on the `test_unseen_answers` and `test_unseen_questions` splits.
  
  ## Training procedure
  
  The [Trainer API](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main_classes/trainer#transformers.Seq2SeqTrainer) was used to fine-tune the model. The code utilized for pre-processing and training was mostly adapted from the [summarization script](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/main/examples/pytorch/summarization) made available by HuggingFace.
  
  Training was completed in a little under 1 hour on a GPU on Google Colab.
  
  ### Training hyperparameters
  
  The following hyperparameters were utilized during training:
  - num_epochs: 10
  - optimizer: Adam with betas=(0.9, 0.999) and epsilon=1e-08
  - learning_rate: 5e-05
  - lr_scheduler_type: linear
  - train_batch_size: 1
  - gradient_accumulation_steps: 4
  - eval_batch_size: 4
  - mixed_precision_training: Native AMP
  - PyTorch seed: 42
  
  ### Framework versions
  
  - Transformers 4.25.1
  - Pytorch 1.12.1+cu113
  - Datasets 2.7.1
  - Tokenizers 0.13.2
  
  ## Evaluation results
  
  The generated feedback was evaluated through means of the [SacreBLEU](https://huggingface.co/spaces/evaluate-metric/sacrebleu), [ROUGE-2](https://huggingface.co/spaces/evaluate-metric/rouge), [METEOR](https://huggingface.co/spaces/evaluate-metric/meteor), [BERTScore](https://huggingface.co/spaces/evaluate-metric/bertscore) metrics from HuggingFace, while the [accuracy](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.metrics.accuracy_score.html) and [F1](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.metrics.f1_score.html) scores from scikit-learn were used for evaluation of the labels.
  
  The following results were achieved.
