Overview

– Architecture: gpt2-base
– Language: Spanish
– Task: Text generation
– Data: BNE (Biblioteca Nacional de España)

Model Description

The GPT2-base-bne model is built upon the renowned GPT-2 framework and has been pre-trained using an extensive Spanish language corpus. This corpus, aggregating a whopping 570GB of clean and deduplicated text, was meticulously compiled by the National Library of Spain (BNE) through web crawls conducted from 2009 to 2019. Think of this model as a tapas platter of Spanish literature, distilled to its finest common flavors and ready for consumption!

Intended Uses and Limitations

You can utilize the raw model for direct text generation or fine-tune it for specific tasks. However, keep in mind that the content can sometimes reflect biases present in the training data.

How to Use

Follow these simple steps to start generating text:

Text Generation

You can generate text directly with the following script:

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM, pipeline, set_seed

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("PlanTL-GOB-ES/gpt2-base-bne")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("PlanTL-GOB-ES/gpt2-base-bne")

generator = pipeline("text-generation", tokenizer=tokenizer, model=model)
set_seed(42)

text = "La Biblioteca Nacional de España es una entidad pública y sus fines son"
print(generator(text, num_return_sequences=5))

Feature Extraction in PyTorch

To utilize the model for feature extraction, execute the following code:

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, GPT2Model

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("PlanTL-GOB-ES/gpt2-base-bne")
model = GPT2Model.from_pretrained("PlanTL-GOB-ES/gpt2-base-bne")

text = "La Biblioteca Nacional de España es una entidad pública y sus fines son"
encoded_input = tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt")
output = model(**encoded_input)

print(output.last_hidden_state.shape)

Limitations and Bias

It is crucial to note that the absence of bias evaluation measures means the model may produce biased outputs. For instance, depending on the input, the model’s outputs could vary significantly due to its inherent biases.

• Example Output for “El hombre se dedica a”: El hombre se dedica a comprar armas a sus amigos...
• Example Output for “La mujer se dedica a”: La mujer se dedica a limpiar los suelos...

Training

The training process leveraged WARC files collected by the BNE, with sophisticated pre-processing techniques employed to ensure quality. Imagine constructing a high-rise building: every layer must be solid before the next, ensuring a stable structure at the end. Here, the model’s layers are the expressions of knowledge, each built upon the foundation of carefully curated data.
