.. _introduction:
Training large models: introduction, tools and examples
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
BERT-base and BERT-large are respectively 110M and 340M parameters models and it can be difficult to fine-tune them on a single GPU with the recommended batch size for good performance (in most case a batch size of 32).
To help with fine-tuning these models, we have included several techniques that you can activate in the fine-tuning scripts `run_bert_classifier.py <https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-pretrained-BERT/tree/master/examples/run_bert_classifier.py>`_ and `run_bert_squad.py <https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-pretrained-BERT/tree/master/examples/run_bert_squad.py>`_\ : gradient-accumulation, multi-gpu training, distributed training and 16-bits training . For more details on how to use these techniques you can read `the tips on training large batches in PyTorch <https://medium.com/huggingface/training-larger-batches-practical-tips-on-1-gpu-multi-gpu-distributed-setups-ec88c3e51255>`_ that I published earlier this year.
Here is how to use these techniques in our scripts:
* **Gradient Accumulation**\ : Gradient accumulation can be used by supplying a integer greater than 1 to the ``--gradient_accumulation_steps`` argument. The batch at each step will be divided by this integer and gradient will be accumulated over ``gradient_accumulation_steps`` steps.
* **Multi-GPU**\ : Multi-GPU is automatically activated when several GPUs are detected and the batches are splitted over the GPUs.
* **Distributed training**\ : Distributed training can be activated by supplying an integer greater or equal to 0 to the ``--local_rank`` argument (see below).
* **16-bits training**\ : 16-bits training, also called mixed-precision training, can reduce the memory requirement of your model on the GPU by using half-precision training, basically allowing to double the batch size. If you have a recent GPU (starting from NVIDIA Volta architecture) you should see no decrease in speed. A good introduction to Mixed precision training can be found `here <https://devblogs.nvidia.com/mixed-precision-training-deep-neural-networks/>`__ and a full documentation is `here <https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/sdk/mixed-precision-training/index.html>`__. In our scripts, this option can be activated by setting the ``--fp16`` flag and you can play with loss scaling using the ``--loss_scale`` flag (see the previously linked documentation for details on loss scaling). The loss scale can be zero in which case the scale is dynamically adjusted or a positive power of two in which case the scaling is static.
To use 16-bits training and distributed training, you need to install NVIDIA's apex extension `as detailed here <https://github.com/nvidia/apex>`__. You will find more information regarding the internals of ``apex`` and how to use ``apex`` in `the doc and the associated repository <https://github.com/nvidia/apex>`_. The results of the tests performed on pytorch-BERT by the NVIDIA team (and my trials at reproducing them) can be consulted in `the relevant PR of the present repository <https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-pretrained-BERT/pull/116>`_.
Note: To use *Distributed Training*\ , you will need to run one training script on each of your machines. This can be done for example by running the following command on each server (see `the above mentioned blog post <https://medium.com/huggingface/training-larger-batches-practical-tips-on-1-gpu-multi-gpu-distributed-setups-ec88c3e51255>`_\ ) for more details):
.. code-block:: bash
python -m torch.distributed.launch \
--nproc_per_node=4 \
--nnodes=2 \
--node_rank=$THIS_MACHINE_INDEX \
--master_addr="192.168.1.1" \
--master_port=1234 run_bert_classifier.py \
(--arg1 --arg2 --arg3 and all other arguments of the run_classifier script)
Where ``$THIS_MACHINE_INDEX`` is an sequential index assigned to each of your machine (0, 1, 2...) and the machine with rank 0 has an IP address ``192.168.1.1`` and an open port ``1234``.
.. _fine-tuning-bert-examples:
Fine-tuning with BERT: running the examples
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We showcase several fine-tuning examples based on (and extended from) `the original implementation <https://github.com/google-research/bert/>`_\ :
* a *sequence-level classifier* on nine different GLUE tasks,
* a *token-level classifier* on the question answering dataset SQuAD, and
* a *sequence-level multiple-choice classifier* on the SWAG classification corpus.
* a *BERT language model* on another target corpus
GLUE results on dev set
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We get the following results on the dev set of GLUE benchmark with an uncased BERT base
model (`bert-base-uncased`). All experiments ran on 8 V100 GPUs with a total train batch size of 24. Some of
these tasks have a small dataset and training can lead to high variance in the results between different runs.
We report the median on 5 runs (with different seeds) for each of the metrics.

Some of these results are significantly different from the ones reported on the test set
of GLUE benchmark on the website. For QQP and WNLI, please refer to `FAQ #12 <https://gluebenchmark.com/faq>`_ on the webite.
Before running anyone of these GLUE tasks you should download the
`GLUE data <https://gluebenchmark.com/tasks>`_ by running
`this script <https://gist.github.com/W4ngatang/60c2bdb54d156a41194446737ce03e2e>`_
and unpack it to some directory ``$GLUE_DIR``.
.. code-block:: shell
export GLUE_DIR=/path/to/glue
export TASK_NAME=MRPC
python run_bert_classifier.py \
--task_name $TASK_NAME \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--do_lower_case \
--data_dir $GLUE_DIR/$TASK_NAME \
--bert_model bert-base-uncased \
--max_seq_length 128 \
--train_batch_size 32 \
--learning_rate 2e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 3.0 \
--output_dir /tmp/$TASK_NAME/
where task name can be one of CoLA, SST-2, MRPC, STS-B, QQP, MNLI, QNLI, RTE, WNLI.
The dev set results will be present within the text file 'eval_results.txt' in the specified output_dir. In case of MNLI, since there are two separate dev sets, matched and mismatched, there will be a separate output folder called '/tmp/MNLI-MM/' in addition to '/tmp/MNLI/'.
The code has not been tested with half-precision training with apex on any GLUE task apart from MRPC, MNLI, CoLA, SST-2. The following section provides details on how to run half-precision training with MRPC. With that being said, there shouldn't be any issues in running half-precision training with the remaining GLUE tasks as well, since the data processor for each task inherits from the base class DataProcessor.
MRPC
~~~~
This example code fine-tunes BERT on the Microsoft Research Paraphrase
Corpus (MRPC) corpus and runs in less than 10 minutes on a single K-80 and in 27 seconds (!) on single tesla V100 16GB with apex installed.
Before running this example you should download the
`GLUE data <https://gluebenchmark.com/tasks>`_ by running

~~~~~
This example code fine-tunes BERT on the SQuAD dataset. It runs in 24 min (with BERT-base) or 68 min (with BERT-large) on a single tesla V100 16GB.
The data for SQuAD can be downloaded with the following links and should be saved in a ``$SQUAD_DIR`` directory.

LM Fine-tuning
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The data should be a text file in the same format as `sample_text.txt <./pytorch_transformers/tests/fixtures/sample_text.txt/sample_text.txt>`_ (one sentence per line, docs separated by empty line).
You can download an `exemplary training corpus <https://ext-bert-sample.obs.eu-de.otc.t-systems.com/small_wiki_sentence_corpus.txt>`_ generated from wikipedia articles and split into ~500k sentences with spaCy.
Training one epoch on this corpus takes about 1:20h on 4 x NVIDIA Tesla P100 with ``train_batch_size=200`` and ``max_seq_length=128``\ :
Thank to the work of @Rocketknight1 and @tholor there are now **several scripts** that can be used to fine-tune BERT using the pretraining objective (combination of masked-language modeling and next sentence prediction loss). These scripts are detailed in the `README <https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-pretrained-BERT/tree/master/examples/lm_finetuning/README.md>`_ of the `examples/lm_finetuning/ <https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-pretrained-BERT/tree/master/examples/lm_finetuning/>`_ folder.
.. _fine-tuning:
OpenAI GPT, Transformer-XL and GPT-2: running the examples
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We provide three examples of scripts for OpenAI GPT, Transformer-XL, OpenAI GPT-2, BERT and RoBERTa based on (and extended from) the respective original implementations:
* fine-tuning OpenAI GPT on the ROCStories dataset
* evaluating Transformer-XL on Wikitext 103
* unconditional and conditional generation from a pre-trained OpenAI GPT-2 model
* fine-tuning GPT/GPT-2 on a causal language modeling task and BERT/RoBERTa on a masked language modeling task
Fine-tuning OpenAI GPT on the RocStories dataset
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This example code fine-tunes OpenAI GPT on the RocStories dataset.
Before running this example you should download the
`RocStories dataset <https://github.com/snigdhac/StoryComprehension_EMNLP/tree/master/Dataset/RoCStories>`_ and unpack it to some directory ``$ROC_STORIES_DIR``.
.. code-block:: shell
export ROC_STORIES_DIR=/path/to/RocStories
python run_openai_gpt.py \
--model_name openai-gpt \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--train_dataset $ROC_STORIES_DIR/cloze_test_val__spring2016\ -\ cloze_test_ALL_val.csv \
--eval_dataset $ROC_STORIES_DIR/cloze_test_test__spring2016\ -\ cloze_test_ALL_test.csv \
--output_dir ../log \
--train_batch_size 16 \
This command runs in about 10 min on a single K-80 an gives an evaluation accuracy of about 87.7% (the authors report a median accuracy with the TensorFlow code of 85.8% and the OpenAI GPT paper reports a best single run accuracy of 86.5%).
Evaluating the pre-trained Transformer-XL on the WikiText 103 dataset
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This example code evaluate the pre-trained Transformer-XL on the WikiText 103 dataset.
This command will download a pre-processed version of the WikiText 103 dataset in which the vocabulary has been computed.
.. code-block:: shell
python run_transfo_xl.py --work_dir ../log
This command runs in about 1 min on a V100 and gives an evaluation perplexity of 18.22 on WikiText-103 (the authors report a perplexity of about 18.3 on this dataset with the TensorFlow code).
Unconditional and conditional generation from OpenAI's GPT-2 model
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This example code is identical to the original unconditional and conditional generation codes.
Conditional generation:
.. code-block:: shell
python run_gpt2.py
Unconditional generation:
.. code-block:: shell
python run_gpt2.py --unconditional
The same option as in the original scripts are provided, please refer to the code of the example and the original repository of OpenAI.
Causal LM fine-tuning on GPT/GPT-2, Masked LM fine-tuning on BERT/RoBERTa
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Before running the following examples you should download the `WikiText-2 dataset <https://blog.einstein.ai/the-wikitext-long-term-dependency-language-modeling-dataset/>`__ and unpack it to some directory `$WIKITEXT_2_DATASET`
The following results were obtained using the `raw` WikiText-2 (no tokens were replaced before the tokenization).
This example fine-tunes GPT-2 on the WikiText-2 dataset. The loss function is a causal language modeling loss (perplexity).
.. code-block:: bash
export WIKITEXT_2_DATASET=/path/to/wikitext_dataset
python run_lm_finetuning.py
--output_dir=output
--model_type=gpt2
--model_name_or_path=gpt2
--do_train
--train_data_file=$WIKITEXT_2_DATASET/wiki.train.raw
--do_eval
--eval_data_file=$WIKITEXT_2_DATASET/wiki.test.raw
This takes about half an hour to train on a single K80 GPU and about one minute for the evaluation to run.
It reaches a score of about 20 perplexity once fine-tuned on the dataset.
This example fine-tunes RoBERTa on the WikiText-2 dataset. The loss function is a masked language modeling loss (masked perplexity).
The `--mlm` flag is necessary to fine-tune BERT/RoBERTa on masked language modeling.
.. code-block:: bash
export WIKITEXT_2_DATASET=/path/to/wikitext_dataset
python run_lm_finetuning.py
--output_dir=output
--model_type=roberta
--model_name_or_path=roberta-base
--do_train
--train_data_file=$WIKITEXT_2_DATASET/wiki.train.raw
--do_eval
--eval_data_file=$WIKITEXT_2_DATASET/wiki.test.raw
--mlm
.. _fine-tuning-BERT-large:
Fine-tuning BERT-large on GPUs
------------------------------
The options we list above allow to fine-tune BERT-large rather easily on GPU(s) instead of the TPU used by the original implementation.
For example, fine-tuning BERT-large on SQuAD can be done on a server with 4 k-80 (these are pretty old now) in 18 hours. Our results are similar to the TensorFlow implementation results (actually slightly higher):
.. code-block:: bash
{"exact_match": 84.56953642384106, "f1": 91.04028647786927}
To get these results we used a combination of:
* multi-GPU training (automatically activated on a multi-GPU server),
* 2 steps of gradient accumulation and
* perform the optimization step on CPU to store Adam's averages in RAM.
Here is the full list of hyper-parameters for this run:
.. code-block:: bash
export SQUAD_DIR=/path/to/SQUAD
python ./run_bert_squad.py \
--bert_model bert-large-uncased \
--do_train \
--do_predict \
--do_lower_case \
--train_file $SQUAD_DIR/train-v1.1.json \
--predict_file $SQUAD_DIR/dev-v1.1.json \
--learning_rate 3e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 2 \
--max_seq_length 384 \
--doc_stride 128 \
--output_dir /tmp/debug_squad/ \
--train_batch_size 24 \
--gradient_accumulation_steps 2
If you have a recent GPU (starting from NVIDIA Volta series), you should try **16-bit fine-tuning** (FP16).
Here is an example of hyper-parameters for a FP16 run we tried:
.. code-block:: bash
export SQUAD_DIR=/path/to/SQUAD

STS-B
~~~~~
This example code fine-tunes XLNet on the STS-B corpus.
Before running this example you should download the
`GLUE data <https://gluebenchmark.com/tasks>`_ by running
`this script <https://gist.github.com/W4ngatang/60c2bdb54d156a41194446737ce03e2e>`_
and unpack it to some directory ``$GLUE_DIR``.
.. code-block:: shell
export GLUE_DIR=/path/to/glue
python run_xlnet_classifier.py \
--task_name STS-B \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--data_dir $GLUE_DIR/STS-B/ \
--max_seq_length 128 \
--train_batch_size 8 \
--gradient_accumulation_steps 1 \
--learning_rate 5e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 3.0 \
--output_dir /tmp/mrpc_output/
Our test ran on a few seeds with `the original implementation hyper-parameters <https://github.com/zihangdai/xlnet#1-sts-b-sentence-pair-relevance-regression-with-gpus>`__ gave evaluation results between 84% and 88%.
**Distributed training**
Here is an example using distributed training on 8 V100 GPUs to reach XXXX:
.. code-block:: bash
python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node 8 \
run_xlnet_classifier.py \
--task_name STS-B \
--do_train \
--do_eval \

--train_batch_size 8 \
--gradient_accumulation_steps 1 \
--learning_rate 5e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 3.0 \
--output_dir /tmp/mrpc_output/
Training with these hyper-parameters gave us the following results:
.. code-block:: bash
acc = 0.8823529411764706
acc_and_f1 = 0.901702786377709

# Examples
In this section a few examples are put together. All of these examples work for several models, making use of the very
similar API between the different models.
| Section | Description |
|----------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| [Language Model fine-tuning](#language-model-fine-tuning) | Fine-tuning the library models for language modeling on a text dataset. Causal language modeling for GPT/GPT-2, masked language modeling for BERT/RoBERTa. |
| [Language Generation](#language-generation) | Conditional text generation using the auto-regressive models of the library: GPT, GPT-2, Transformer-XL and XLNet. |
| [GLUE](#glue) | Examples running BERT/XLM/XLNet/RoBERTa on the 9 GLUE tasks. Examples feature distributed training as well as half-precision. |
| [SQuAD](#squad) | Using BERT for question answering, examples with distributed training. |
## Language model fine-tuning
Based on the script [`run_lm_finetuning.py`](https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-transformers/blob/master/examples/run_lm_finetuning.py).
Fine-tuning the library models for language modeling on a text dataset for GPT, GPT-2, BERT and RoBERTa (DistilBERT
to be added soon). GPT and GPT-2 are fine-tuned using a causal language modeling (CLM) loss while BERT and RoBERTa
are fine-tuned using a masked language modeling (MLM) loss.
Before running the following example, you should get a file that contains text on which the language model will be
fine-tuned. A good example of such text is the [WikiText-2 dataset](https://blog.einstein.ai/the-wikitext-long-term-dependency-language-modeling-dataset/).
We will refer to two different files: `$TRAIN_FILE`, which contains text for training, and `$TEST_FILE`, which contains
text that will be used for evaluation.
### GPT-2/GPT and causal language modeling
The following example fine-tunes GPT-2 on WikiText-2. We're using the raw WikiText-2 (no tokens were replaced before
the tokenization). The loss here is that of causal language modeling.
```bash
export TRAIN_FILE=/path/to/dataset/wiki.train.raw
export TEST_FILE=/path/to/dataset/wiki.test.raw
python run_lm_finetuning.py \
--output_dir=output \
--model_type=gpt2 \
--model_name_or_path=gpt2 \
--do_train \
--train_data_file=$TRAIN_FILE \
--do_eval \
--eval_data_file=$TEST_FILE
```
This takes about half an hour to train on a single K80 GPU and about one minute for the evaluation to run. It reaches
a score of ~20 perplexity once fine-tuned on the dataset.
### RoBERTa/BERT and masked language modeling
The following example fine-tunes RoBERTa on WikiText-2. Here too, we're using the raw WikiText-2. The loss is different
as BERT/RoBERTa have a bidirectional mechanism; we're therefore using the same loss that was used during their
pre-training: masked language modeling.
In accordance to the RoBERTa paper, we use dynamic masking rather than static masking. The model may, therefore, converge
slightly slower (over-fitting takes more epochs).
We use the `--mlm` flag so that the script may change its loss function.
```bash
export TRAIN_FILE=/path/to/dataset/wiki.train.raw
export TEST_FILE=/path/to/dataset/wiki.test.raw
python run_lm_finetuning.py \
--output_dir=output \
--model_type=roberta \
--model_name_or_path=roberta-base \
--do_train \
--train_data_file=$TRAIN_FILE \
--do_eval \
--eval_data_file=$TEST_FILE \
--mlm
```
## Language generation
Based on the script [`run_generation.py`](https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-transformers/blob/master/examples/run_generation.py).
Conditional text generation using the auto-regressive models of the library: GPT, GPT-2, Transformer-XL and XLNet.
A similar script is used for our official demo [Write With Transfomer](https://transformer.huggingface.co), where you
can try out the different models available in the library.
Example usage:
```bash
python run_generation.py \
--model_type=gpt2 \
--model_name_or_path=gpt2
```
## GLUE
Based on the script [`run_glue.py`](https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-transformers/blob/master/examples/run_glue.py).
Fine-tuning the library models for sequence classification on the GLUE benchmark: [General Language Understanding
Evaluation](https://gluebenchmark.com/). This script can fine-tune the following models: BERT, XLM, XLNet and RoBERTa.
GLUE is made up of a total of 9 different tasks. We get the following results on the dev set of the benchmark with an
uncased BERT base model (the checkpoint `bert-base-uncased`). All experiments ran on 8 V100 GPUs with a total train
batch size of 24. Some of these tasks have a small dataset and training can lead to high variance in the results
between different runs. We report the median on 5 runs (with different seeds) for each of the metrics.
| Task | Metric | Result |
|-------|------------------------------|-------------|
| CoLA | Matthew's corr | 55.75 |
| SST-2 | Accuracy | 92.09 |
| MRPC | F1/Accuracy | 90.48/86.27 |
| STS-B | Person/Spearman corr. | 89.03/88.64 |
| QQP | Accuracy/F1 | 90.92/87.72 |
| MNLI | Matched acc./Mismatched acc. | 83.74/84.06 |
| QNLI | Accuracy | 91.07 |
| RTE | Accuracy | 68.59 |
| WNLI | Accuracy | 43.66 |
Some of these results are significantly different from the ones reported on the test set
of GLUE benchmark on the website. For QQP and WNLI, please refer to [FAQ #12](https://gluebenchmark.com/faq) on the webite.
Before running anyone of these GLUE tasks you should download the
[GLUE data](https://gluebenchmark.com/tasks) by running
[this script](https://gist.github.com/W4ngatang/60c2bdb54d156a41194446737ce03e2e)
and unpack it to some directory `$GLUE_DIR`.
```bash
export GLUE_DIR=/path/to/glue
export TASK_NAME=MRPC
python run_glue.py \
--model_type bert \
--model_name_or_path bert-base-cased \
--task_name $TASK_NAME \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--do_lower_case \
--data_dir $GLUE_DIR/$TASK_NAME \
--max_seq_length 128 \
--per_gpu_train_batch_size 32 \
--learning_rate 2e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 3.0 \
--output_dir /tmp/$TASK_NAME/
```
where task name can be one of CoLA, SST-2, MRPC, STS-B, QQP, MNLI, QNLI, RTE, WNLI.
The dev set results will be present within the text file `eval_results.txt` in the specified output_dir.
In case of MNLI, since there are two separate dev sets (matched and mismatched), there will be a separate
output folder called `/tmp/MNLI-MM/` in addition to `/tmp/MNLI/`.
The code has not been tested with half-precision training with apex on any GLUE task apart from MRPC, MNLI,
CoLA, SST-2. The following section provides details on how to run half-precision training with MRPC. With that being
said, there shouldn’t be any issues in running half-precision training with the remaining GLUE tasks as well,
since the data processor for each task inherits from the base class DataProcessor.
### MRPC
#### Fine-tuning example
The following examples fine-tune BERT on the Microsoft Research Paraphrase Corpus (MRPC) corpus and runs in less
than 10 minutes on a single K-80 and in 27 seconds (!) on single tesla V100 16GB with apex installed.
Before running anyone of these GLUE tasks you should download the
[GLUE data](https://gluebenchmark.com/tasks) by running
[this script](https://gist.github.com/W4ngatang/60c2bdb54d156a41194446737ce03e2e)
and unpack it to some directory `$GLUE_DIR`.
```bash
export GLUE_DIR=/path/to/glue
python run_glue.py \
--model_type bert \
--model_name_or_path bert-base-cased \
--task_name MRPC \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--do_lower_case \
--data_dir $GLUE_DIR/MRPC/ \
--max_seq_length 128 \
--per_gpu_train_batch_size 32 \
--learning_rate 2e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 3.0 \
--output_dir /tmp/mrpc_output/
```
Our test ran on a few seeds with [the original implementation hyper-
parameters](https://github.com/google-research/bert#sentence-and-sentence-pair-classification-tasks) gave evaluation
results between 84% and 88%.
#### Using Apex and mixed-precision
Using Apex and 16 bit precision, the fine-tuning on MRPC only takes 27 seconds. First install
[apex](https://github.com/NVIDIA/apex), then run the following example:
```bash
export GLUE_DIR=/path/to/glue
python run_glue.py \
--model_type bert \
--model_name_or_path bert-base-cased \
--task_name MRPC \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--do_lower_case \
--data_dir $GLUE_DIR/MRPC/ \
--max_seq_length 128 \
--per_gpu_train_batch_size 32 \
--learning_rate 2e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 3.0 \
--output_dir /tmp/mrpc_output/ \
--fp16
```
#### Distributed training
Here is an example using distributed training on 8 V100 GPUs. The model used is the BERT whole-word-masking and it
reaches F1 > 92 on MRPC.
```bash
export GLUE_DIR=/path/to/glue
python -m torch.distributed.launch \
--nproc_per_node 8 run_glue.py \
--model_type bert \
--model_name_or_path bert-base-cased \
--task_name MRPC \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--do_lower_case \
--data_dir $GLUE_DIR/MRPC/ \
--max_seq_length 128 \
--per_gpu_train_batch_size 8 \
--learning_rate 2e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 3.0 \
--output_dir /tmp/mrpc_output/
```
Training with these hyper-parameters gave us the following results:
```bash
acc = 0.8823529411764706
acc_and_f1 = 0.901702786377709
eval_loss = 0.3418912578906332
f1 = 0.9210526315789473
global_step = 174
loss = 0.07231863956341798
```
### MNLI
The following example uses the BERT-large, uncased, whole-word-masking model and fine-tunes it on the MNLI task.
```bash
export GLUE_DIR=/path/to/glue
python -m torch.distributed.launch \
--nproc_per_node 8 run_glue.py \
--model_type bert \
--model_name_or_path bert-base-cased \
--task_name mnli \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--do_lower_case \
--data_dir $GLUE_DIR/MNLI/ \
--max_seq_length 128 \
--per_gpu_train_batch_size 8 \
--learning_rate 2e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 3.0 \
--output_dir output_dir \
```
The results are the following:
```bash
***** Eval results *****
acc = 0.8679706601466992
eval_loss = 0.4911287787382479
global_step = 18408
loss = 0.04755385363816904
***** Eval results *****
acc = 0.8747965825874695
eval_loss = 0.45516540421714036
global_step = 18408
loss = 0.04755385363816904
```
## SQuAD
Based on the script [`run_squad.py`](https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-transformers/blob/master/examples/run_squad.py).
#### Fine-tuning on SQuAD
This example code fine-tunes BERT on the SQuAD dataset. It runs in 24 min (with BERT-base) or 68 min (with BERT-large)
on a single tesla V100 16GB. The data for SQuAD can be downloaded with the following links and should be saved in a
$SQUAD_DIR directory.
* [train-v1.1.json](https://rajpurkar.github.io/SQuAD-explorer/dataset/train-v1.1.json)
* [dev-v1.1.json](https://rajpurkar.github.io/SQuAD-explorer/dataset/dev-v1.1.json)
* [evaluate-v1.1.py](https://github.com/allenai/bi-att-flow/blob/master/squad/evaluate-v1.1.py)
```bash
export SQUAD_DIR=/path/to/SQUAD
python run_squad.py \
--model_type bert \
--model_name_or_path bert-base-cased \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--do_lower_case \
--train_file $SQUAD_DIR/train-v1.1.json \
--predict_file $SQUAD_DIR/dev-v1.1.json \
--per_gpu_train_batch_size 12 \
--learning_rate 3e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 2.0 \
--max_seq_length 384 \
--doc_stride 128 \
--output_dir /tmp/debug_squad/
```
Training with the previously defined hyper-parameters yields the following results:
```bash
f1 = 88.52
exact_match = 81.22
```
#### Distributed training
Here is an example using distributed training on 8 V100 GPUs and Bert Whole Word Masking uncased model to reach a F1 > 93 on SQuAD:
```bash
python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 run_squad.py \
--model_type bert \
--model_name_or_path bert-base-cased \
--do_train \
--do_eval \
--do_lower_case \
--train_file $SQUAD_DIR/train-v1.1.json \
--predict_file $SQUAD_DIR/dev-v1.1.json \
--learning_rate 3e-5 \
--num_train_epochs 2 \
--max_seq_length 384 \
--doc_stride 128 \
--output_dir ../models/wwm_uncased_finetuned_squad/ \
--per_gpu_train_batch_size 24 \
--gradient_accumulation_steps 12
```
Training with the previously defined hyper-parameters yields the following results:
```bash
f1 = 93.15
exact_match = 86.91
```
This fine-tuneds model is available as a checkpoint under the reference
`bert-large-uncased-whole-word-masking-finetuned-squad`.
