Overview

The mT5 model was presented in mT5: A massively multilingual pre-trained text-to-text transformer by Linting Xue, Noah Constant, Adam Roberts, Mihir Kale, Rami Al-Rfou, Aditya Siddhant, Aditya Barua, Colin Raffel.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

The recent “Text-to-Text Transfer Transformer” (T5) leveraged a unified text-to-text format and scale to attain state-of-the-art results on a wide variety of English-language NLP tasks. In this paper, we introduce mT5, a multilingual variant of T5 that was pre-trained on a new Common Crawl-based dataset covering 101 languages. We detail the design and modified training of mT5 and demonstrate its state-of-the-art performance on many multilingual benchmarks. We also describe a simple technique to prevent “accidental translation” in the zero-shot setting, where a generative model chooses to (partially) translate its prediction into the wrong language. All of the code and model checkpoints used in this work are publicly available.

Note: mT5 was only pre-trained on mC4 excluding any supervised training. Therefore, this model has to be fine-tuned before it is usable on a downstream task, unlike the original T5 model. Since mT5 was pre-trained unsupervisedly, there’s no real advantage to using a task prefix during single-task fine-tuning. If you are doing multi-task fine-tuning, you should use a prefix.

Google has released the following variants:

- google/mt5-small

- google/mt5-base

- google/mt5-large

- google/mt5-xl

- google/mt5-xxl.

This model was contributed by patrickvonplaten. The original code can be found here.

Parameters

- vocab_size (`int`, optional, defaults to 250112) — Vocabulary size of the T5 model. Defines the number of different tokens that can be represented by the `inputs_ids` passed when calling T5Model or TFT5Model.
- d_model (`int`, optional, defaults to 512) — Size of the encoder layers and the pooler layer.
- d_kv (`int`, optional, defaults to 64) — Size of the key, query, value projections per attention head. In the conventional context, it is typically expected that `d_kv` has to be equal to `d_model // num_heads`. But in the architecture of mt5-small, `d_kv` is not equal to `d_model //num_heads`. The `inner_dim` of the projection layer will be defined as `num_heads * d_kv`.
- d_ff (`int`, optional, defaults to 1024) — Size of the intermediate feed forward layer in each `T5Block`.
- num_layers (`int`, optional, defaults to 8) — Number of hidden layers in the Transformer encoder.
- num_decoder_layers (`int`, optional) — Number of hidden layers in the Transformer decoder. Will use the same value as `num_layers` if not set.
- num_heads (`int`, optional, defaults to 6) — Number of attention heads for each attention layer in the Transformer encoder.
- relative_attention_num_buckets (`int`, optional, defaults to 32) — The number of buckets to use for each attention layer.
- relative_attention_max_distance (`int`, optional, defaults to 128) — The maximum distance of the longer sequences for the bucket separation.
- dropout_rate (`float`, optional, defaults to 0.1) — The ratio for all dropout layers.
- classifier_dropout (`float`, optional, defaults to 0.0) — The dropout ratio for classifier.
- layer_norm_eps (`float`, optional, defaults to 1e-6) — The epsilon used by the layer normalization layers.
- initializer_factor (`float`, optional, defaults to 1) — A factor for initializing all weight matrices (should be kept to 1, used internally for initialization testing).
- feed_forward_proj (`string`, optional, defaults to `"gated-gelu"`) — Type of feed forward layer to be used. Should be one of `"relu"` or `"gated-gelu"`.
- use_cache (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not the model should return the last key/values attentions (not used by all models).

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a MT5Model or a TFMT5Model. It is used to instantiate a mT5 model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the mT5 google/mt5-small architecture.

Configuration objects inherit from PretrainedConfig and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from PretrainedConfig for more information.

- eos_token (`str`, optional, defaults to `"</s>"`) — The end of sequence token.

  When building a sequence using special tokens, this is not the token that is used for the end of sequence. The token used is the `sep_token`.

- unk_token (`str`, optional, defaults to `"<unk>"`) — The unknown token. A token that is not in the vocabulary cannot be converted to an ID and is set to be this token instead.
- pad_token (`str`, optional, defaults to `"<pad>"`) — The token used for padding, for example when batching sequences of different lengths.
- extra_ids (`int`, optional, defaults to 100) — Add a number of extra ids added to the vocabulary for use as sentinels. These tokens are accessible as “id{%d}>” where ”{%d}” is a number between 0 and extra_ids-1. These tokens can be retrieved by calling get_sentinel_tokens method and token ids can be by calling get_sentinel_token_ids method additional_special_tokens (`List[str]`, optional): Additional special tokens used by the tokenizer.
- sp_model_kwargs (`dict`, optional) — Will be passed to the `SentencePieceProcessor.__init__()` method. The Python wrapper for SentencePiece can be used, among other things, to set:

  - `enable_sampling`: Enable subword regularization.

  - `nbest_size`: Sampling parameters for unigram. Invalid for BPE-Dropout.

    - `nbest_size = {0,1}`: No sampling is performed.
    - `nbest_size > 1`: samples from the nbest_size results.
    - `nbest_size < 0`: assuming that nbest_size is infinite and samples from the all hypothesis (lattice) using forward-filtering-and-backward-sampling algorithm.

  - `alpha`: Smoothing parameter for unigram sampling, and dropout probability of merge operations for BPE-dropout.

- legacy (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not the `legacy` behaviour of the tokenizer should be used. Legacy is before the merge of #24622 and #25224 which includes fixes to properly handle tokens that appear after special tokens. A simple example:
  - `legacy=True`:

MT5Model

###
class transformers.MT5Model

< source >

( config: MT5Config )

Parameters

- config (MT5Config) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

The bare MT5 Model transformer outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.

The MT5 model was proposed in Exploring the Limits of Transfer Learning with a Unified Text-to-Text Transformer by Colin Raffel, Noam Shazeer, Adam Roberts, Katherine Lee, Sharan Narang, Michael Matena, Yanqi Zhou, Wei Li, Peter J. Liu. It’s an encoder decoder transformer pre-trained in a text-to-text denoising generative setting.

This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch torch.nn.Module subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Examples:

    >>> from transformers import MT5Model, AutoTokenizer

    >>> model = MT5Model.from_pretrained("google/mt5-small")
    >>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/mt5-small")
    >>> article = "UN Offizier sagt, dass weiter verhandelt werden muss in Syrien."
    >>> summary = "Weiter Verhandlung in Syrien."
    >>> inputs = tokenizer(article, return_tensors="pt")
    >>> labels = tokenizer(text_target=summary, return_tensors="pt")

    >>> outputs = model(input_ids=inputs["input_ids"], decoder_input_ids=labels["input_ids"])
    >>> hidden_states = outputs.last_hidden_state

####
deparallelize

Example:

    # On a 4 GPU machine with mt5-xl:
    model = MT5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("Mt5-xl")
    device_map = {
        0: [0, 1, 2],
        1: [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9],

transformers.modeling_outputs.Seq2SeqModelOutput or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

Parameters

- input_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. MT5 is a model with relative position embeddings so you should be able to pad the inputs on both the right and the left.

  Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for detail.

  What are input IDs?

  To know more on how to prepare `input_ids` for pretraining take a look a MT5 Training.

- attention_mask (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional) — Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 for tokens that are not masked,
  - 0 for tokens that are masked.

  What are attention masks?

- decoder_input_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, target_sequence_length)`, optional) — Indices of decoder input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

  Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

  What are decoder input IDs?

  MT5 uses the `pad_token_id` as the starting token for `decoder_input_ids` generation. If `past_key_values` is used, optionally only the last `decoder_input_ids` have to be input (see `past_key_values`).

  To know more on how to prepare `decoder_input_ids` for pretraining take a look at MT5 Training.

- decoder_attention_mask (`torch.BoolTensor` of shape `(batch_size, target_sequence_length)`, optional) — Default behavior: generate a tensor that ignores pad tokens in `decoder_input_ids`. Causal mask will also be used by default.
- head_mask (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, optional) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules in the encoder. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- decoder_head_mask (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, optional) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules in the decoder. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- cross_attn_head_mask (`torch.Tensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, optional) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the cross-attention modules in the decoder. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- encoder_outputs (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional) — Tuple consists of (`last_hidden_state`, `optional`: hidden_states, `optional`: attentions) `last_hidden_state` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)` is a sequence of hidden states at the output of the last layer of the encoder. Used in the cross-attention of the decoder.
- past_key_values (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor))` of length `config.n_layers` with each tuple having 4 tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length - 1, embed_size_per_head)`) — Contains precomputed key and value hidden states of the attention blocks. Can be used to speed up decoding.

  If `past_key_values` are used, the user can optionally input only the last `decoder_input_ids` (those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape `(batch_size, 1)` instead of all `decoder_input_ids` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`.

- inputs_embeds (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, optional) — Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.
- decoder_inputs_embeds (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, target_sequence_length, hidden_size)`, optional) — Optionally, instead of passing `decoder_input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. If `past_key_values` is used, optionally only the last `decoder_inputs_embeds` have to be input (see `past_key_values`). This is useful if you want more control over how to convert `decoder_input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.

  If `decoder_input_ids` and `decoder_inputs_embeds` are both unset, `decoder_inputs_embeds` takes the value of `inputs_embeds`.

- use_cache (`bool`, optional) — If set to `True`, `past_key_values` key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see `past_key_values`).
- output_attentions (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail.
- output_hidden_states (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for more detail.
- return_dict (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple.

Returns

transformers.modeling_outputs.Seq2SeqModelOutput or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

A transformers.modeling_outputs.Seq2SeqModelOutput or a tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (if `return_dict=False` is passed or when `config.return_dict=False`) comprising various elements depending on the configuration (MT5Config) and inputs.

- last_hidden_state (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`) — Sequence of hidden-states at the output of the last layer of the decoder of the model.

  If `past_key_values` is used only the last hidden-state of the sequences of shape `(batch_size, 1, hidden_size)` is output.

- past_key_values (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor))`, optional, returned when `use_cache=True` is passed or when `config.use_cache=True`) — Tuple of `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)` of length `config.n_layers`, with each tuple having 2 tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, embed_size_per_head)`) and 2 additional tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, encoder_sequence_length, embed_size_per_head)`.

  Contains pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks and in the cross-attention blocks) that can be used (see `past_key_values` input) to speed up sequential decoding.

- decoder_hidden_states (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, + one for the output of each layer) of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`.

  Hidden-states of the decoder at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.

- decoder_attentions (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional, returned when `output_attentions=True` is passed or when `config.output_attentions=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for each layer) of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, sequence_length)`.

  Attentions weights of the decoder’s cross-attention layer, after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the cross-attention heads.

- encoder_last_hidden_state (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, optional) — Sequence of hidden-states at the output of the last layer of the encoder of the model.

  Attentions weights of the encoder, after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention heads.

The MT5Model forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Example:

    >>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, MT5Model

    >>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google-mt5/mt5-small")
    >>> model = MT5Model.from_pretrained("google-mt5/mt5-small")

    >>> input_ids = tokenizer(
    ...     "Studies have been shown that owning a dog is good for you", return_tensors="pt"
    ... ).input_ids  # Batch size 1
    >>> decoder_input_ids = tokenizer("Studies show that", return_tensors="pt").input_ids  # Batch size 1

    >>> # preprocess: Prepend decoder_input_ids with start token which is pad token for MT5Model.
    >>> # This is not needed for torch's MT5ForConditionalGeneration as it does this internally using labels arg.
    >>> decoder_input_ids = model._shift_right(decoder_input_ids)

    >>> # forward pass
    >>> outputs = model(input_ids=input_ids, decoder_input_ids=decoder_input_ids)
    >>> last_hidden_states = outputs.last_hidden_state

( device_map = None )

Parameters

- device_map (`Dict[int, list]`, optional, defaults to None) — A dictionary that maps attention modules to devices. Note that the embedding module and LMHead are always automatically mapped to the first device (for esoteric reasons). That means that the first device should have fewer attention modules mapped to it than other devices. For reference, the mt5 models have the following number of attention modules:
  - mt5-small: 6
  - mt5-base: 12
  - mt5-large: 24
  - mt5-xl: 24
  - mt5-xxl: 24

This is an experimental feature and is a subject to change at a moment’s notice.

Uses a device map to distribute attention modules of the model across several devices. If no device map is given, it will evenly distribute blocks across all devices.

Example:

    # Here is an example of a device map on a machine with 4 GPUs using mt5-xl, which has a total of 24 attention modules:
    model = MT5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("mt5-xl")
    device_map = {
        0: [0, 1, 2],
        1: [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9],
        2: [10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16],
        3: [17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23],

transformers.modeling_outputs.Seq2SeqLMOutput or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

Parameters

- input_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. MT5 is a model with relative position embeddings so you should be able to pad the inputs on both the right and the left.

  Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for detail.

  What are input IDs?

  To know more on how to prepare `input_ids` for pretraining take a look a MT5 Training.

- attention_mask (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional) — Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 for tokens that are not masked,
  - 0 for tokens that are masked.

  What are attention masks?

- decoder_input_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, target_sequence_length)`, optional) — Indices of decoder input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

  Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

  What are decoder input IDs?

  MT5 uses the `pad_token_id` as the starting token for `decoder_input_ids` generation. If `past_key_values` is used, optionally only the last `decoder_input_ids` have to be input (see `past_key_values`).

  To know more on how to prepare `decoder_input_ids` for pretraining take a look at MT5 Training.

- decoder_attention_mask (`torch.BoolTensor` of shape `(batch_size, target_sequence_length)`, optional) — Default behavior: generate a tensor that ignores pad tokens in `decoder_input_ids`. Causal mask will also be used by default.
- head_mask (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, optional) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules in the encoder. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:

  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- cross_attn_head_mask (`torch.Tensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, optional) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the cross-attention modules in the decoder. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- encoder_outputs (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional) — Tuple consists of (`last_hidden_state`, `optional`: hidden_states, `optional`: attentions) `last_hidden_state` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)` is a sequence of hidden states at the output of the last layer of the encoder. Used in the cross-attention of the decoder.
- past_key_values (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor))` of length `config.n_layers` with each tuple having 4 tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length - 1, embed_size_per_head)`) — Contains precomputed key and value hidden states of the attention blocks. Can be used to speed up decoding.

  If `past_key_values` are used, the user can optionally input only the last `decoder_input_ids` (those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape `(batch_size, 1)` instead of all `decoder_input_ids` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`.

- inputs_embeds (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, optional) — Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation.

The MT5ForConditionalGeneration forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Examples:

    >>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, MT5ForConditionalGeneration

    >>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google-mt5/mt5-small")
    >>> model = MT5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("google-mt5/mt5-small")

    >>> # training
    >>> input_ids = tokenizer("The <extra_id_0> walks in <extra_id_1> park", return_tensors="pt").input_ids
    >>> labels = tokenizer("<extra_id_0> cute dog <extra_id_1> the <extra_id_2>", return_tensors="pt").input_ids
    >>> outputs = model(input_ids=input_ids, labels=labels)
    >>> loss = outputs.loss
    >>> logits = outputs.logits

    >>> # inference
    >>> input_ids = tokenizer(
    ...     "summarize: studies have shown that owning a dog is good for you", return_tensors="pt"
    ... ).input_ids  # Batch size 1
    >>> outputs = model.generate(input_ids)
    >>> print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))

( device_map = None )

Parameters

- device_map (`Dict[int, list]`, optional, defaults to None) — A dictionary that maps attention modules to devices. Note that the embedding module and LMHead are always automatically mapped to the first device (for esoteric reasons). That means that the first device should have fewer attention modules mapped to it than other devices. For reference, the mt5 models have the following number of attention modules:
  - mt5-small: 6
  - mt5-base: 12
  - mt5-large: 24
  - mt5-xl: 24
  - mt5-xxl: 24

This is an experimental feature and is a subject to change at a moment’s notice.

Uses a device map to distribute attention modules of the model across several devices. If no device map is given, it will evenly distribute blocks across all devices.

Example:

    # Here is an example of a device map on a machine with 4 GPUs using mt5-xl, which has a total of 24 attention modules:
    model = MT5ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained("mt5-xl")
    device_map = {
        0: [0, 1, 2],
        1: [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9],
        2: [10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16],

( config: MT5Config )

Parameters

- config (MT5Config) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

The bare MT5 Model transformer outputting encoder’s raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.

The MT5 model was proposed in Exploring the Limits of Transfer Learning with a Unified Text-to-Text Transformer by Colin Raffel, Noam Shazeer, Adam Roberts, Katherine Lee, Sharan Narang, Michael Matena, Yanqi Zhou, Wei Li, Peter J. Liu. It’s an encoder decoder transformer pre-trained in a text-to-text denoising generative setting.

This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch torch.nn.Module subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Examples:

    >>> from transformers import MT5EncoderModel, AutoTokenizer

    >>> model = MT5EncoderModel.from_pretrained("google/mt5-small")

MT5ForTokenClassification

###
class transformers.MT5ForTokenClassification

< source >

( config: MT5Config )

Parameters

- config (MT5Config) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the from_pretrained() method to load the model weights.

MT5 Encoder Model with a token classification head on top (a linear layer on top of the hidden-states output) e.g. for Named-Entity-Recognition (NER) tasks.

The MT5 model was proposed in Exploring the Limits of Transfer Learning with a Unified Text-to-Text Transformer by Colin Raffel, Noam Shazeer, Adam Roberts, Katherine Lee, Sharan Narang, Michael Matena, Yanqi Zhou, Wei Li, Peter J. Liu. It’s an encoder decoder transformer pre-trained in a text-to-text denoising generative setting.

This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a PyTorch torch.nn.Module subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

transformers.modeling_outputs.TokenClassifierOutput or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

Parameters

- input_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. MT5 is a model with relative position embeddings so you should be able to pad the inputs on both the right and the left.

  Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for detail.

  What are input IDs?

  To know more on how to prepare `input_ids` for pretraining take a look a MT5 Training.

- attention_mask (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional) — Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 for tokens that are not masked,
  - 0 for tokens that are masked.

  What are attention masks?

- decoder_input_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, target_sequence_length)`, optional) — Indices of decoder input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

  Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

  What are decoder input IDs?

  MT5 uses the `pad_token_id` as the starting token for `decoder_input_ids` generation. If `past_key_values` is used, optionally only the last `decoder_input_ids` have to be input (see `past_key_values`).

  To know more on how to prepare `decoder_input_ids` for pretraining take a look at MT5 Training.

- decoder_attention_mask (`torch.BoolTensor` of shape `(batch_size, target_sequence_length)`, optional) — Default behavior: generate a tensor that ignores pad tokens in `decoder_input_ids`. Causal mask will also be used by default.
- head_mask (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, optional) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules in the encoder. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- decoder_head_mask (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, optional) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules in the decoder. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- cross_attn_head_mask (`torch.Tensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, optional) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the cross-attention modules in the decoder. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- encoder_outputs (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional) — Tuple consists of (`last_hidden_state`, `optional`: hidden_states, `optional`: attentions) `last_hidden_state` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)` is a sequence of hidden states at the output of the last layer of the encoder. Used in the cross-attention of the decoder.
- past_key_values (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor))` of length `config.n_layers` with each tuple having 4 tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length - 1, embed_size_per_head)`) — Contains precomputed key and value hidden states of the attention blocks. Can be used to speed up decoding.

  If `past_key_values` are used, the user can optionally input only the last `decoder_input_ids` (those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape `(batch_size, 1)` instead of all `decoder_input_ids` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`.

- inputs_embeds (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, optional) — Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.
- decoder_inputs_embeds (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, target_sequence_length, hidden_size)`, optional) — Optionally, instead of passing `decoder_input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. If `past_key_values` is used, optionally only the last `decoder_inputs_embeds` have to be input (see `past_key_values`). This is useful if you want more control over how to convert `decoder_input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.

  If `decoder_input_ids` and `decoder_inputs_embeds` are both unset, `decoder_inputs_embeds` takes the value of `inputs_embeds`.

- use_cache (`bool`, optional) — If set to `True`, `past_key_values` key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see `past_key_values`).
- output_attentions (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail.
- output_hidden_states (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for more detail.
- return_dict (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple.
- labels (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional) — Labels for computing the token classification loss. Indices should be in `[0, ..., config.num_labels - 1]`.

Returns

transformers.modeling_outputs.TokenClassifierOutput or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`
