The model is set in evaluation mode by default using `model.eval()` (Dropout modules are deactivated)
To train the model, you should first set it back in training mode with `model.train()`
Params:
pretrained_model_name_or_path: either:
- a string with the `shortcut name` of a pre-trained model to load from cache or download, e.g.: ``bert-base-uncased``.
- a path to a `directory` containing model weights saved using :func:`~transformers.PreTrainedModel.save_pretrained`, e.g.: ``./my_model_directory/``.
- a path or url to a `tensorflow index checkpoint file` (e.g. `./tf_model/model.ckpt.index`). In this case, ``from_tf`` should be set to True and a configuration object should be provided as ``config`` argument. This loading path is slower than converting the TensorFlow checkpoint in a PyTorch model using the provided conversion scripts and loading the PyTorch model afterwards.
config: (`optional`) instance of a class derived from :class:`~transformers.PretrainedConfig`:
Configuration for the model to use instead of an automatically loaded configuation. Configuration can be automatically loaded when:
- the model is a model provided by the library (loaded with the ``shortcut-name`` string of a pretrained model), or
- the model was saved using :func:`~transformers.PreTrainedModel.save_pretrained` and is reloaded by suppling the save directory.
- the model is loaded by suppling a local directory as ``pretrained_model_name_or_path`` and a configuration JSON file named `config.json` is found in the directory.
state_dict: (`optional`) dict:
an optional state dictionnary for the model to use instead of a state dictionary loaded from saved weights file.
This option can be used if you want to create a model from a pretrained configuration but load your own weights.
In this case though, you should check if using :func:`~transformers.PreTrainedModel.save_pretrained` and :func:`~transformers.PreTrainedModel.from_pretrained` is not a simpler option.
cache_dir: (`optional`) string:
Path to a directory in which a downloaded pre-trained model
configuration should be cached if the standard cache should not be used.
Force to (re-)download the model weights and configuration files and override the cached versions if they exists.
proxies: (`optional`) dict, default None:
A dictionary of proxy servers to use by protocol or endpoint, e.g.: {'http': 'foo.bar:3128', 'http://hostname': 'foo.bar:4012'}.
The proxies are used on each request.
output_loading_info: (`optional`) boolean:
Set to ``True`` to also return a dictionnary containing missing keys, unexpected keys and error messages.
kwargs: (`optional`) Remaining dictionary of keyword arguments:
Can be used to update the configuration object (after it being loaded) and initiate the model. (e.g. ``output_attention=True``). Behave differently depending on whether a `config` is provided or automatically loaded:
- If a configuration is provided with ``config``, ``**kwargs`` will be directly passed to the underlying model's ``__init__`` method (we assume all relevant updates to the configuration have already been done)
- If a configuration is not provided, ``kwargs`` will be first passed to the configuration class initialization function (:func:`~transformers.PretrainedConfig.from_pretrained`). Each key of ``kwargs`` that corresponds to a configuration attribute will be used to override said attribute with the supplied ``kwargs`` value. Remaining keys that do not correspond to any configuration attribute will be passed to the underlying model's ``__init__`` function.
Examples::
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('bert-base-uncased') # Download model and configuration from S3 and cache.
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('./test/bert_model/') # E.g. model was saved using `save_pretrained('./test/saved_model/')`
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('bert-base-uncased', output_attention=True) # Update configuration during loading
assert model.config.output_attention == True
# Loading from a TF checkpoint file instead of a PyTorch model (slower)
