TAPAS

##
Overview

The TAPAS model was proposed in TAPAS: Weakly Supervised Table Parsing via Pre-training by Jonathan Herzig, Paweł Krzysztof Nowak, Thomas Müller, Francesco Piccinno and Julian Martin Eisenschlos. It’s a BERT-based model specifically designed (and pre-trained) for answering questions about tabular data. Compared to BERT, TAPAS uses relative position embeddings and has 7 token types that encode tabular structure. TAPAS is pre-trained on the masked language modeling (MLM) objective on a large dataset comprising millions of tables from English Wikipedia and corresponding texts.

For question answering, TAPAS has 2 heads on top: a cell selection head and an aggregation head, for (optionally) performing aggregations (such as counting or summing) among selected cells. TAPAS has been fine-tuned on several datasets:

- SQA (Sequential Question Answering by Microsoft)
- WTQ (Wiki Table Questions by Stanford University)
- WikiSQL (by Salesforce).

It achieves state-of-the-art on both SQA and WTQ, while having comparable performance to SOTA on WikiSQL, with a much simpler architecture.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

Answering natural language questions over tables is usually seen as a semantic parsing task. To alleviate the collection cost of full logical forms, one popular approach focuses on weak supervision consisting of denotations instead of logical forms. However, training semantic parsers from weak supervision poses difficulties, and in addition, the generated logical forms are only used as an intermediate step prior to retrieving the denotation. In this paper, we present TAPAS, an approach to question answering over tables without generating logical forms. TAPAS trains from weak supervision, and predicts the denotation by selecting table cells and optionally applying a corresponding aggregation operator to such selection. TAPAS extends BERT’s architecture to encode tables as input, initializes from an effective joint pre-training of text segments and tables crawled from Wikipedia, and is trained end-to-end. We experiment with three different semantic parsing datasets, and find that TAPAS outperforms or rivals semantic parsing models by improving state-of-the-art accuracy on SQA from 55.1 to 67.2 and performing on par with the state-of-the-art on WIKISQL and WIKITQ, but with a simpler model architecture. We additionally find that transfer learning, which is trivial in our setting, from WIKISQL to WIKITQ, yields 48.7 accuracy, 4.2 points above the state-of-the-art.

In addition, the authors have further pre-trained TAPAS to recognize table entailment, by creating a balanced dataset of millions of automatically created training examples which are learned in an intermediate step prior to fine-tuning. The authors of TAPAS call this further pre-training intermediate pre-training (since TAPAS is first pre-trained on MLM, and then on another dataset). They found that intermediate pre-training further improves performance on SQA, achieving a new state-of-the-art as well as state-of-the-art on TabFact, a large-scale dataset with 16k Wikipedia tables for table entailment (a binary classification task). For more details, see their follow-up paper: Understanding tables with intermediate pre-training by Julian Martin Eisenschlos, Syrine Krichene and Thomas Müller.

Usage tips

- TAPAS is a model that uses relative position embeddings by default (restarting the position embeddings at every cell of the table). Note that this is something that was added after the publication of the original TAPAS paper. According to the authors, this usually results in a slightly better performance, and allows you to encode longer sequences without running out of embeddings. This is reflected in the `reset_position_index_per_cell` parameter of TapasConfig, which is set to `True` by default. The default versions of the models available on the hub all use relative position embeddings. You can still use the ones with absolute position embeddings by passing in an additional argument `revision="no_reset"` when calling the `from_pretrained()` method. Note that it’s usually advised to pad the inputs on the right rather than the left.
- TAPAS is based on BERT, so `TAPAS-base` for example corresponds to a `BERT-base` architecture. Of course, `TAPAS-large` will result in the best performance (the results reported in the paper are from `TAPAS-large`). Results of the various sized models are shown on the original GitHub repository.
- TAPAS has checkpoints fine-tuned on SQA, which are capable of answering questions related to a table in a conversational set-up. This means that you can ask follow-up questions such as “what is his age?” related to the previous question. Note that the forward pass of TAPAS is a bit different in case of a conversational set-up: in that case, you have to feed every table-question pair one by one to the model, such that the `prev_labels` token type ids can be overwritten by the predicted `labels` of the model to the previous question. See “Usage” section for more info.
- TAPAS is similar to BERT and therefore relies on the masked language modeling (MLM) objective. It is therefore efficient at predicting masked tokens and at NLU in general, but is not optimal for text generation. Models trained with a causal language modeling (CLM) objective are better in that regard. Note that TAPAS can be used as an encoder in the EncoderDecoderModel framework, to combine it with an autoregressive text decoder such as GPT-2.

Usage: fine-tuning

Here we explain how you can fine-tune TapasForQuestionAnswering on your own dataset.

STEP 1: Choose one of the 3 ways in which you can use TAPAS - or experiment

Basically, there are 3 different ways in which one can fine-tune TapasForQuestionAnswering, corresponding to the different datasets on which Tapas was fine-tuned:

1. SQA: if you’re interested in asking follow-up questions related to a table, in a conversational set-up. For example if you first ask “what’s the name of the first actor?” then you can ask a follow-up question such as “how old is he?“. Here, questions do not involve any aggregation (all questions are cell selection questions).
2. WTQ: if you’re not interested in asking questions in a conversational set-up, but rather just asking questions related to a table, which might involve aggregation, such as counting a number of rows, summing up cell values or averaging cell values. You can then for example ask “what’s the total number of goals Cristiano Ronaldo made in his career?“. This case is also called weak supervision, since the model itself must learn the appropriate aggregation operator (SUM/COUNT/AVERAGE/NONE) given only the answer to the question as supervision.
3. WikiSQL-supervised: this dataset is based on WikiSQL with the model being given the ground truth aggregation operator during training. This is also called strong supervision. Here, learning the appropriate aggregation operator is much easier.

To summarize:

Task | Example dataset | Description
--- | --- | ---
Conversational | SQA | Conversational, only cell selection questions
Weak supervision for aggregation | WTQ | Questions might involve aggregation, and the model must learn this given only the answer as supervision
Strong supervision for aggregation | WikiSQL-supervised | Questions might involve aggregation, and the model must learn this given the gold aggregation operator

Initializing a model with a pre-trained base and randomly initialized classification heads from the hub can be done as shown below.

    >>> from transformers import TapasConfig, TapasForQuestionAnswering

    >>> # for example, the base sized model with default SQA configuration
    >>> model = TapasForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base")

    >>> # or, the base sized model with WTQ configuration
    >>> config = TapasConfig.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base-finetuned-wtq")
    >>> model = TapasForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base", config=config)

    >>> # or, the base sized model with WikiSQL configuration
    >>> config = TapasConfig("google-base-finetuned-wikisql-supervised")
    >>> model = TapasForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base", config=config)

Of course, you don’t necessarily have to follow one of these three ways in which TAPAS was fine-tuned. You can also experiment by defining any hyperparameters you want when initializing TapasConfig, and then create a TapasForQuestionAnswering based on that configuration. For example, if you have a dataset that has both conversational questions and questions that might involve aggregation, then you can do it this way. Here’s an example:

    >>> from transformers import TapasConfig, TapasForQuestionAnswering

    >>> # you can initialize the classification heads any way you want (see docs of TapasConfig)
    >>> config = TapasConfig(num_aggregation_labels=3, average_logits_per_cell=True)
    >>> # initializing the pre-trained base sized model with our custom classification heads
    >>> model = TapasForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base", config=config)

Initializing a model with a pre-trained base and randomly initialized classification heads from the hub can be done as shown below. Be sure to have installed the tensorflow_probability dependency:

    >>> from transformers import TapasConfig, TFTapasForQuestionAnswering

    >>> # for example, the base sized model with default SQA configuration
    >>> model = TFTapasForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base")

    >>> # or, the base sized model with WTQ configuration
    >>> config = TapasConfig.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base-finetuned-wtq")
    >>> model = TFTapasForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base", config=config)

    >>> # or, the base sized model with WikiSQL configuration
    >>> config = TapasConfig("google-base-finetuned-wikisql-supervised")
    >>> model = TFTapasForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base", config=config)

Of course, you don’t necessarily have to follow one of these three ways in which TAPAS was fine-tuned. You can also experiment by defining any hyperparameters you want when initializing TapasConfig, and then create a TFTapasForQuestionAnswering based on that configuration. For example, if you have a dataset that has both conversational questions and questions that might involve aggregation, then you can do it this way. Here’s an example:

    >>> from transformers import TapasConfig, TFTapasForQuestionAnswering

    >>> # you can initialize the classification heads any way you want (see docs of TapasConfig)
    >>> config = TapasConfig(num_aggregation_labels=3, average_logits_per_cell=True)
    >>> # initializing the pre-trained base sized model with our custom classification heads
    >>> model = TFTapasForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base", config=config)

What you can also do is start from an already fine-tuned checkpoint. A note here is that the already fine-tuned checkpoint on WTQ has some issues due to the L2-loss which is somewhat brittle. See here for more info.

For a list of all pre-trained and fine-tuned TAPAS checkpoints available on HuggingFace’s hub, see here.

STEP 2: Prepare your data in the SQA format

Second, no matter what you picked above, you should prepare your dataset in the SQA format. This format is a TSV/CSV file with the following columns:

- `id`: optional, id of the table-question pair, for bookkeeping purposes.
- `annotator`: optional, id of the person who annotated the table-question pair, for bookkeeping purposes.
- `position`: integer indicating if the question is the first, second, third,… related to the table. Only required in case of conversational setup (SQA). You don’t need this column in case you’re going for WTQ/WikiSQL-supervised.
- `question`: string
- `table_file`: string, name of a csv file containing the tabular data
- `answer_coordinates`: list of one or more tuples (each tuple being a cell coordinate, i.e. row, column pair that is part of the answer)
- `answer_text`: list of one or more strings (each string being a cell value that is part of the answer)
- `aggregation_label`: index of the aggregation operator. Only required in case of strong supervision for aggregation (the WikiSQL-supervised case)
- `float_answer`: the float answer to the question, if there is one (np.nan if there isn’t). Only required in case of weak supervision for aggregation (such as WTQ and WikiSQL)

The tables themselves should be present in a folder, each table being a separate csv file. Note that the authors of the TAPAS algorithm used conversion scripts with some automated logic to convert the other datasets (WTQ, WikiSQL) into the SQA format. The author explains this here. A conversion of this script that works with HuggingFace’s implementation can be found here. Interestingly, these conversion scripts are not perfect (the `answer_coordinates` and `float_answer` fields are populated based on the `answer_text`), meaning that WTQ and WikiSQL results could actually be improved.

STEP 3: Convert your data into tensors using TapasTokenizer

Pytorch

Third, given that you’ve prepared your data in this TSV/CSV format (and corresponding CSV files containing the tabular data), you can then use TapasTokenizer to convert table-question pairs into `input_ids`, `attention_mask`, `token_type_ids` and so on. Again, based on which of the three cases you picked above, TapasForQuestionAnswering requires different inputs to be fine-tuned:

Task | Required inputs
--- | ---
Conversational | `input_ids`, `attention_mask`, `token_type_ids`, `labels`
Weak supervision for aggregation | `input_ids`, `attention_mask`, `token_type_ids`, `labels`, `numeric_values`, `numeric_values_scale`, `float_answer`
Strong supervision for aggregation | `input ids`, `attention mask`, `token type ids`, `labels`, `aggregation_labels`

TapasTokenizer creates the `labels`, `numeric_values` and `numeric_values_scale` based on the `answer_coordinates` and `answer_text` columns of the TSV file. The `float_answer` and `aggregation_labels` are already in the TSV file of step 2. Here’s an example:

    >>> from transformers import TapasTokenizer
    >>> import pandas as pd

    >>> model_name = "google/tapas-base"
    >>> tokenizer = TapasTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)

    >>> data = {"Actors": ["Brad Pitt", "Leonardo Di Caprio", "George Clooney"], "Number of movies": ["87", "53", "69"]}
    >>> queries = [
    ...     "What is the name of the first actor?",
    ...     "How many movies has George Clooney played in?",
    ...     "What is the total number of movies?",
    ... ]
    >>> answer_coordinates = [[(0, 0)], [(2, 1)], [(0, 1), (1, 1), (2, 1)]]
    >>> answer_text = [["Brad Pitt"], ["69"], ["209"]]
    >>> table = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(data)
    >>> inputs = tokenizer(
    ...     table=table,
    ...     queries=queries,
    ...     answer_coordinates=answer_coordinates,
    ...     answer_text=answer_text,
    ...     padding="max_length",
    ...     return_tensors="pt",
    ... )
    >>> inputs
    {'input_ids': tensor([[ ... ]]), 'attention_mask': tensor([[...]]), 'token_type_ids': tensor([[[...]]]),
    'numeric_values': tensor([[ ... ]]), 'numeric_values_scale: tensor([[ ... ]]), labels: tensor([[ ... ]])}

Note that TapasTokenizer expects the data of the table to be text-only. You can use `.astype(str)` on a dataframe to turn it into text-only data. Of course, this only shows how to encode a single training example. It is advised to create a dataloader to iterate over batches:

    >>> import torch
    >>> import pandas as pd

    >>> tsv_path = "your_path_to_the_tsv_file"
    >>> table_csv_path = "your_path_to_a_directory_containing_all_csv_files"

    >>> class TableDataset(torch.utils.data.Dataset):
    ...     def __init__(self, data, tokenizer):
    ...         self.data = data
    ...         self.tokenizer = tokenizer

    ...     def __getitem__(self, idx):
    ...         item = data.iloc[idx]
    ...         table = pd.read_csv(table_csv_path + item.table_file).astype(
    ...             str
    ...         )  # be sure to make your table data text only
    ...         encoding = self.tokenizer(
    ...             table=table,
    ...             queries=item.question,
    ...             answer_coordinates=item.answer_coordinates,
    ...             answer_text=item.answer_text,
    ...             truncation=True,
    ...             padding="max_length",
    ...             return_tensors="pt",
    ...         )
    ...         # remove the batch dimension which the tokenizer adds by default
    ...         encoding = {key: val.squeeze(0) for key, val in encoding.items()}
    ...         # add the float_answer which is also required (weak supervision for aggregation case)
    ...         encoding["float_answer"] = torch.tensor(item.float_answer)
    ...         return encoding

    ...     def __len__(self):
    ...         return len(self.data)

    >>> data = pd.read_csv(tsv_path, sep="\t")
    >>> train_dataset = TableDataset(data, tokenizer)
    >>> train_dataloader = torch.utils.data.DataLoader(train_dataset, batch_size=32)

Third, given that you’ve prepared your data in this TSV/CSV format (and corresponding CSV files containing the tabular data), you can then use TapasTokenizer to convert table-question pairs into `input_ids`, `attention_mask`, `token_type_ids` and so on. Again, based on which of the three cases you picked above, TFTapasForQuestionAnswering requires different inputs to be fine-tuned:

Weak supervision for aggregation | `input_ids`, `attention_mask`, `token_type_ids`, `labels`, `numeric_values`, `numeric_values_scale`, `float_answer`
Strong supervision for aggregation | `input ids`, `attention mask`, `token type ids`, `labels`, `aggregation_labels`

TapasTokenizer creates the `labels`, `numeric_values` and `numeric_values_scale` based on the `answer_coordinates` and `answer_text` columns of the TSV file. The `float_answer` and `aggregation_labels` are already in the TSV file of step 2. Here’s an example:

    >>> from transformers import TapasTokenizer
    >>> import pandas as pd

    >>> model_name = "google/tapas-base"
    >>> tokenizer = TapasTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)

    >>> data = {"Actors": ["Brad Pitt", "Leonardo Di Caprio", "George Clooney"], "Number of movies": ["87", "53", "69"]}
    >>> queries = [
    ...     "What is the name of the first actor?",
    ...     "How many movies has George Clooney played in?",
    ...     "What is the total number of movies?",
    ... ]
    >>> answer_coordinates = [[(0, 0)], [(2, 1)], [(0, 1), (1, 1), (2, 1)]]
    >>> answer_text = [["Brad Pitt"], ["69"], ["209"]]
    >>> table = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(data)
    >>> inputs = tokenizer(
    ...     table=table,
    ...     queries=queries,
    ...     answer_coordinates=answer_coordinates,
    ...     answer_text=answer_text,
    ...     padding="max_length",
    ...     return_tensors="tf",
    ... )
    >>> inputs
    {'input_ids': tensor([[ ... ]]), 'attention_mask': tensor([[...]]), 'token_type_ids': tensor([[[...]]]),
    'numeric_values': tensor([[ ... ]]), 'numeric_values_scale: tensor([[ ... ]]), labels: tensor([[ ... ]])}

    >>> class TableDataset:
    ...     def __init__(self, data, tokenizer):

    ...         self.tokenizer = tokenizer

    ...     def __iter__(self):
    ...         for idx in range(self.__len__()):
    ...             item = self.data.iloc[idx]
    ...             table = pd.read_csv(table_csv_path + item.table_file).astype(
    ...                 str
    ...             )  # be sure to make your table data text only
    ...             encoding = self.tokenizer(
    ...                 table=table,
    ...                 queries=item.question,
    ...                 answer_coordinates=item.answer_coordinates,
    ...                 answer_text=item.answer_text,
    ...                 truncation=True,
    ...                 padding="max_length",

    ...             )
    ...             # remove the batch dimension which the tokenizer adds by default

    ...             yield encoding["input_ids"], encoding["attention_mask"], encoding["numeric_values"], encoding[
    ...                 "numeric_values_scale"
    ...             ], encoding["token_type_ids"], encoding["labels"], encoding["float_answer"]

    ...     def __len__(self):
    ...         return len(self.data)

    >>> data = pd.read_csv(tsv_path, sep="\t")
    >>> train_dataset = TableDataset(data, tokenizer)
    >>> output_signature = (
    ...     tf.TensorSpec(shape=(512,), dtype=tf.int32),
    ...     tf.TensorSpec(shape=(512,), dtype=tf.int32),
    ...     tf.TensorSpec(shape=(512,), dtype=tf.float32),
    ...     tf.TensorSpec(shape=(512,), dtype=tf.float32),
    ...     tf.TensorSpec(shape=(512, 7), dtype=tf.int32),
    ...     tf.TensorSpec(shape=(512,), dtype=tf.int32),
    ...     tf.TensorSpec(shape=(512,), dtype=tf.float32),
    ... )
    >>> train_dataloader = tf.data.Dataset.from_generator(train_dataset, output_signature=output_signature).batch(32)

Note that here, we encode each table-question pair independently. This is fine as long as your dataset is not conversational. In case your dataset involves conversational questions (such as in SQA), then you should first group together the `queries`, `answer_coordinates` and `answer_text` per table (in the order of their `position` index) and batch encode each table with its questions. This will make sure that the `prev_labels` token types (see docs of TapasTokenizer) are set correctly. See this notebook for more info. See this notebook for more info regarding using the TensorFlow model.

You can then fine-tune TapasForQuestionAnswering as follows (shown here for the weak supervision for aggregation case):

Usage: inference

Pytorch
Hide Pytorch content

Here we explain how you can use TapasForQuestionAnswering or TFTapasForQuestionAnswering for inference (i.e. making predictions on new data). For inference, only `input_ids`, `attention_mask` and `token_type_ids` (which you can obtain using TapasTokenizer) have to be provided to the model to obtain the logits. Next, you can use the handy `~models.tapas.tokenization_tapas.convert_logits_to_predictions` method to convert these into predicted coordinates and optional aggregation indices.

However, note that inference is different depending on whether or not the setup is conversational. In a non-conversational set-up, inference can be done in parallel on all table-question pairs of a batch. Here’s an example of that:

    >>> from transformers import TapasTokenizer, TapasForQuestionAnswering
    >>> import pandas as pd

    >>> model_name = "google/tapas-base-finetuned-wtq"
    >>> model = TapasForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained(model_name)
    >>> tokenizer = TapasTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)

    >>> data = {"Actors": ["Brad Pitt", "Leonardo Di Caprio", "George Clooney"], "Number of movies": ["87", "53", "69"]}
    >>> queries = [
    ...     "What is the name of the first actor?",
    ...     "How many movies has George Clooney played in?",
    ...     "What is the total number of movies?",
    ... ]
    >>> table = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(data)
    >>> inputs = tokenizer(table=table, queries=queries, padding="max_length", return_tensors="pt")
    >>> outputs = model(**inputs)
    >>> predicted_answer_coordinates, predicted_aggregation_indices = tokenizer.convert_logits_to_predictions(
    ...     inputs, outputs.logits.detach(), outputs.logits_aggregation.detach()
    ... )

    >>> # let's print out the results:
    >>> id2aggregation = {0: "NONE", 1: "SUM", 2: "AVERAGE", 3: "COUNT"}
    >>> aggregation_predictions_string = [id2aggregation[x] for x in predicted_aggregation_indices]

    >>> answers = []
    >>> for coordinates in predicted_answer_coordinates:
    ...     if len(coordinates) == 1:
    ...         # only a single cell:
    ...         answers.append(table.iat[coordinates[0]])
    ...     else:
    ...         # multiple cells
    ...         cell_values = []
    ...         for coordinate in coordinates:
    ...             cell_values.append(table.iat[coordinate])
    ...         answers.append(", ".join(cell_values))

    >>> display(table)
    >>> print("")
    >>> for query, answer, predicted_agg in zip(queries, answers, aggregation_predictions_string):
    ...     print(query)
    ...     if predicted_agg == "NONE":
    ...         print("Predicted answer: " + answer)
    ...     else:
    ...         print("Predicted answer: " + predicted_agg + " > " + answer)
    What is the name of the first actor?
    Predicted answer: Brad Pitt
    How many movies has George Clooney played in?
    Predicted answer: COUNT > 69
    What is the total number of movies?
    Predicted answer: SUM > 87, 53, 69

    How many movies has George Clooney played in?
    Predicted answer: COUNT > 69
    What is the total number of movies?
    Predicted answer: SUM > 87, 53, 69

In case of a conversational set-up, then each table-question pair must be provided sequentially to the model, such that the `prev_labels` token types can be overwritten by the predicted `labels` of the previous table-question pair. Again, more info can be found in this notebook (for PyTorch) and this notebook (for TensorFlow).

This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a TapasModel. It is used to instantiate a TAPAS 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 TAPAS google/tapas-base-finetuned-sqa architecture.

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

Hyperparameters additional to BERT are taken from run_task_main.py and hparam_utils.py of the original implementation. Original implementation available at https://github.com/google-research/tapas/tree/master.

Example:

    >>> from transformers import TapasModel, TapasConfig

    >>> # Initializing a default (SQA) Tapas configuration
    >>> configuration = TapasConfig()
    >>> # Initializing a model from the configuration
    >>> model = TapasModel(configuration)
    >>> # Accessing the model configuration
    >>> configuration = model.config

Parameters

- vocab_file (`str`) — File containing the vocabulary.
- do_lower_case (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not to lowercase the input when tokenizing.
- do_basic_tokenize (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not to do basic tokenization before WordPiece.
- never_split (`Iterable`, optional) — Collection of tokens which will never be split during tokenization. Only has an effect when `do_basic_tokenize=True`
- 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.
- sep_token (`str`, optional, defaults to `"[SEP]"`) — The separator token, which is used when building a sequence from multiple sequences, e.g. two sequences for sequence classification or for a text and a question for question answering. It is also used as the last token of a sequence built with special tokens.
- pad_token (`str`, optional, defaults to `"[PAD]"`) — The token used for padding, for example when batching sequences of different lengths.
- cls_token (`str`, optional, defaults to `"[CLS]"`) — The classifier token which is used when doing sequence classification (classification of the whole sequence instead of per-token classification). It is the first token of the sequence when built with special tokens.
- mask_token (`str`, optional, defaults to `"[MASK]"`) — The token used for masking values. This is the token used when training this model with masked language modeling. This is the token which the model will try to predict.
- empty_token (`str`, optional, defaults to `"[EMPTY]"`) — The token used for empty cell values in a table. Empty cell values include "", “n/a”, “nan” and ”?“.
- tokenize_chinese_chars (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not to tokenize Chinese characters. This should likely be deactivated for Japanese (see this issue).
- strip_accents (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to strip all accents. If this option is not specified, then it will be determined by the value for `lowercase` (as in the original BERT).
- cell_trim_length (`int`, optional, defaults to -1) — If > 0: Trim cells so that the length is <= this value. Also disables further cell trimming, should thus be used with `truncation` set to `True`.
- max_column_id (`int`, optional) — Max column id to extract.
- max_row_id (`int`, optional) — Max row id to extract.
- strip_column_names (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether to add empty strings instead of column names.
- update_answer_coordinates (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether to recompute the answer coordinates from the answer text.
- min_question_length (`int`, optional) — Minimum length of each question in terms of tokens (will be skipped otherwise).
- max_question_length (`int`, optional) — Maximum length of each question in terms of tokens (will be skipped otherwise).

Construct a TAPAS tokenizer. Based on WordPiece. Flattens a table and one or more related sentences to be used by TAPAS models.

This tokenizer inherits from PreTrainedTokenizer which contains most of the main methods. Users should refer to this superclass for more information regarding those methods. TapasTokenizer creates several token type ids to encode tabular structure. To be more precise, it adds 7 token type ids, in the following order: `segment_ids`, `column_ids`, `row_ids`, `prev_labels`, `column_ranks`, `inv_column_ranks` and `numeric_relations`:

- segment_ids: indicate whether a token belongs to the question (0) or the table (1). 0 for special tokens and padding.
- column_ids: indicate to which column of the table a token belongs (starting from 1). Is 0 for all question tokens, special tokens and padding.
- row_ids: indicate to which row of the table a token belongs (starting from 1). Is 0 for all question tokens, special tokens and padding. Tokens of column headers are also 0.
- prev_labels: indicate whether a token was (part of) an answer to the previous question (1) or not (0). Useful in a conversational setup (such as SQA).
- column_ranks: indicate the rank of a table token relative to a column, if applicable. For example, if you have a column “number of movies” with values 87, 53 and 69, then the column ranks of these tokens are 3, 1 and 2 respectively. 0 for all question tokens, special tokens and padding.
- inv_column_ranks: indicate the inverse rank of a table token relative to a column, if applicable. For example, if you have a column “number of movies” with values 87, 53 and 69, then the inverse column ranks of these tokens are 1, 3 and 2 respectively. 0 for all question tokens, special tokens and padding.
- numeric_relations: indicate numeric relations between the question and the tokens of the table. 0 for all question tokens, special tokens and padding.

TapasTokenizer runs end-to-end tokenization on a table and associated sentences: punctuation splitting and wordpiece.

( table: pd.DataFrame queries: Union = None answer_coordinates: Union = None answer_text: Union = None add_special_tokens: bool = True padding: Union = False truncation: Union = False max_length: Optional = None pad_to_multiple_of: Optional = None return_tensors: Union = None return_token_type_ids: Optional = None return_attention_mask: Optional = None return_overflowing_tokens: bool = False return_special_tokens_mask: bool = False return_offsets_mapping: bool = False return_length: bool = False verbose: bool = True **kwargs )

Parameters

- table (`pd.DataFrame`) — Table containing tabular data. Note that all cell values must be text. Use .astype(str) on a Pandas dataframe to convert it to string.
- queries (`str` or `List[str]`) — Question or batch of questions related to a table to be encoded. Note that in case of a batch, all questions must refer to the same table.
- answer_coordinates (`List[Tuple]` or `List[List[Tuple]]`, optional) — Answer coordinates of each table-question pair in the batch. In case only a single table-question pair is provided, then the answer_coordinates must be a single list of one or more tuples. Each tuple must be a (row_index, column_index) pair. The first data row (not the column header row) has index 0. The first column has index 0. In case a batch of table-question pairs is provided, then the answer_coordinates must be a list of lists of tuples (each list corresponding to a single table-question pair).
- answer_text (`List[str]` or `List[List[str]]`, optional) — Answer text of each table-question pair in the batch. In case only a single table-question pair is provided, then the answer_text must be a single list of one or more strings. Each string must be the answer text of a corresponding answer coordinate. In case a batch of table-question pairs is provided, then the answer_coordinates must be a list of lists of strings (each list corresponding to a single table-question pair).
- add_special_tokens (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not to encode the sequences with the special tokens relative to their model.
- padding (`bool`, `str` or PaddingStrategy, optional, defaults to `False`) — Activates and controls padding. Accepts the following values:
  - `True` or `'longest'`: Pad to the longest sequence in the batch (or no padding if only a single sequence if provided).
  - `'max_length'`: Pad to a maximum length specified with the argument `max_length` or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided.
  - `False` or `'do_not_pad'` (default): No padding (i.e., can output a batch with sequences of different lengths).
- truncation (`bool`, `str` or `TapasTruncationStrategy`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Activates and controls truncation. Accepts the following values:
  - `True` or `'drop_rows_to_fit'`: Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument `max_length` or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will truncate row by row, removing rows from the table.
  - `False` or `'do_not_truncate'` (default): No truncation (i.e., can output batch with sequence lengths greater than the model maximum admissible input size).
- max_length (`int`, optional) — Controls the maximum length to use by one of the truncation/padding parameters.

  If left unset or set to `None`, this will use the predefined model maximum length if a maximum length is required by one of the truncation/padding parameters. If the model has no specific maximum input length (like XLNet) truncation/padding to a maximum length will be deactivated.

- is_split_into_words (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not the input is already pre-tokenized (e.g., split into words). If set to `True`, the tokenizer assumes the input is already split into words (for instance, by splitting it on whitespace) which it will tokenize. This is useful for NER or token classification.
- pad_to_multiple_of (`int`, optional) — If set will pad the sequence to a multiple of the provided value. This is especially useful to enable the use of Tensor Cores on NVIDIA hardware with compute capability `>= 7.5` (Volta).
- return_tensors (`str` or TensorType, optional) — If set, will return tensors instead of list of python integers. Acceptable values are:
  - `'tf'`: Return TensorFlow `tf.constant` objects.
  - `'pt'`: Return PyTorch `torch.Tensor` objects.
  - `'np'`: Return Numpy `np.ndarray` objects.

Main method to tokenize and prepare for the model one or several sequence(s) related to a table.

class transformers.TapasModel

< source >

( config add_pooling_layer = True )

Parameters

- config (TapasConfig) — 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 Tapas Model transformer outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top. This model inherits from PreTrainedModel. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its models (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.

This class is a small change compared to BertModel, taking into account the additional token type ids.

The model can behave as an encoder (with only self-attention) as well as a decoder, in which case a layer of cross-attention is added between the self-attention layers, following the architecture described in Attention is all you need by Ashish Vaswani, Noam Shazeer, Niki Parmar, Jakob Uszkoreit, Llion Jones, Aidan N. Gomez, Lukasz Kaiser and Illia Polosukhin.

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

Parameters

- input_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

  What are input IDs?

- 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?

- token_type_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, 7)`, optional) — Token indices that encode tabular structure. Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See this class for more info.

  What are token type IDs?

- position_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional) — Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. If `reset_position_index_per_cell` of TapasConfig is set to `True`, relative position embeddings will be used. Selected in the range `[0, config.max_position_embeddings - 1]`.

  What are position IDs?

- head_mask (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, optional) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`: - 1 indicates the head is not masked, - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- 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.
- 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.BaseModelOutputWithPooling or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

A transformers.modeling_outputs.BaseModelOutputWithPooling 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 (TapasConfig) 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 model.

- pooler_output (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, hidden_size)`) — Last layer hidden-state of the first token of the sequence (classification token) after further processing through the layers used for the auxiliary pretraining task. E.g. for BERT-family of models, this returns the classification token after processing through a linear layer and a tanh activation function. The linear layer weights are trained from the next sentence prediction (classification) objective during pretraining.

- 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 model at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.

- 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 after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention heads.

The TapasModel 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, TapasModel
    >>> import pandas as pd

    >>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base")
    >>> model = TapasModel.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base")

class transformers.TFTapasModel

< source >

( config: TapasConfig *inputs **kwargs )

Parameters

- config (TapasConfig) — 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 Tapas Model transformer outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.

This model inherits from TFPreTrainedModel. 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 tf.keras.Model subclass. Use it as a regular TF 2.0 Keras Model and refer to the TF 2.0 documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

TensorFlow models and layers in `transformers` accept two formats as input:

- having all inputs as keyword arguments (like PyTorch models), or
- having all inputs as a list, tuple or dict in the first positional argument.

The reason the second format is supported is that Keras methods prefer this format when passing inputs to models and layers. Because of this support, when using methods like `model.fit()` things should “just work” for you - just pass your inputs and labels in any format that `model.fit()` supports! If, however, you want to use the second format outside of Keras methods like `fit()` and `predict()`, such as when creating your own layers or models with the Keras `Functional` API, there are three possibilities you can use to gather all the input Tensors in the first positional argument:

Parameters

- input_ids (`np.ndarray`, `tf.Tensor`, `List[tf.Tensor]` ``Dict[str, tf.Tensor]` or `Dict[str, np.ndarray]` and each example must have the shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

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

  What are input IDs?

- attention_mask (`np.ndarray` or `tf.Tensor` 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?

- token_type_ids (`np.ndarray` or `tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, 7)`, optional) — Token indices that encode tabular structure. Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See this class for more info.

  What are token type IDs?

- position_ids (`np.ndarray` or `tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional) — Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. If `reset_position_index_per_cell` of TapasConfig is set to `True`, relative position embeddings will be used. Selected in the range `[0, config.max_position_embeddings - 1]`.

  What are position IDs?

- head_mask (`np.ndarray` or `tf.Tensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, optional) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- inputs_embeds (`np.ndarray` or `tf.Tensor` 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.
- output_attentions (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail. This argument can be used only in eager mode, in graph mode the value in the config will be used instead.
- 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. This argument can be used only in eager mode, in graph mode the value in the config will be used instead.
- return_dict (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple. This argument can be used in eager mode, in graph mode the value will always be set to True.
- training (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False“) — Whether or not to use the model in training mode (some modules like dropout modules have different behaviors between training and evaluation).

Returns

transformers.modeling_tf_outputs.TFBaseModelOutputWithPooling or `tuple(tf.Tensor)`

A transformers.modeling_tf_outputs.TFBaseModelOutputWithPooling or a tuple of `tf.Tensor` (if `return_dict=False` is passed or when `config.return_dict=False`) comprising various elements depending on the configuration (TapasConfig) and inputs.

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

- pooler_output (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, hidden_size)`) — Last layer hidden-state of the first token of the sequence (classification token) further processed by a Linear layer and a Tanh activation function. The Linear layer weights are trained from the next sentence prediction (classification) objective during pretraining.

  This output is usually not a good summary of the semantic content of the input, you’re often better with averaging or pooling the sequence of hidden-states for the whole input sequence.

- hidden_states (`tuple(tf.Tensor)`, optional, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) — Tuple of `tf.Tensor` (one for the output of the embeddings + one for the output of each layer) of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`.

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

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

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

The TFTapasModel 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.

class transformers.TFTapasForMaskedLM

( config: TapasConfig *inputs **kwargs )

Parameters

- config (TapasConfig) — 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.

Tapas Model with a `language modeling` head on top.

This model inherits from TFPreTrainedModel. 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 tf.keras.Model subclass. Use it as a regular TF 2.0 Keras Model and refer to the TF 2.0 documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

TensorFlow models and layers in `transformers` accept two formats as input:

- having all inputs as keyword arguments (like PyTorch models), or
- having all inputs as a list, tuple or dict in the first positional argument.

The reason the second format is supported is that Keras methods prefer this format when passing inputs to models and layers. Because of this support, when using methods like `model.fit()` things should “just work” for you - just pass your inputs and labels in any format that `model.fit()` supports! If, however, you want to use the second format outside of Keras methods like `fit()` and `predict()`, such as when creating your own layers or models with the Keras `Functional` API, there are three possibilities you can use to gather all the input Tensors in the first positional argument:

- a single Tensor with `input_ids` only and nothing else: `model(input_ids)`
- a list of varying length with one or several input Tensors IN THE ORDER given in the docstring: `model([input_ids, attention_mask])` or `model([input_ids, attention_mask, token_type_ids])`
- a dictionary with one or several input Tensors associated to the input names given in the docstring: `model({"input_ids": input_ids, "token_type_ids": token_type_ids})`

Note that when creating models and layers with subclassing then you don’t need to worry about any of this, as you can just pass inputs like you would to any other Python function!

- output_attentions (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail. This argument can be used only in eager mode, in graph mode the value in the config will be used instead.
- 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. This argument can be used only in eager mode, in graph mode the value in the config will be used instead.
- return_dict (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple. This argument can be used in eager mode, in graph mode the value will always be set to True.
- training (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False“) — Whether or not to use the model in training mode (some modules like dropout modules have different behaviors between training and evaluation).
- table_mask (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, seq_length)`, optional) — Mask for the table. Indicates which tokens belong to the table (1). Question tokens, table headers and padding are 0.
- labels (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, seq_length)`, optional) — Labels per token for computing the hierarchical cell selection loss. This encodes the positions of the answer appearing in the table. Can be obtained using AutoTokenizer.
  - 1 for tokens that are part of the answer,
  - 0 for tokens that are not part of the answer.
- aggregation_labels (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, )`, optional) — Aggregation function index for every example in the batch for computing the aggregation loss. Indices should be in `[0, ..., config.num_aggregation_labels - 1]`. Only required in case of strong supervision for aggregation (WikiSQL-supervised).
- float_answer (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, )`, optional) — Float answer for every example in the batch. Set to float(‘nan’) for cell selection questions. Only required in case of weak supervision (WTQ) to calculate the aggregate mask and regression loss.
- numeric_values (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, seq_length)`, optional) — Numeric values of every token, NaN for tokens which are not numeric values. Can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. Only required in case of weak supervision for aggregation (WTQ) to calculate the regression loss.
- numeric_values_scale (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, seq_length)`, optional) — Scale of the numeric values of every token. Can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. Only required in case of weak supervision for aggregation (WTQ) to calculate the regression loss.

Returns

`transformers.models.tapas.modeling_tf_tapas.TFTableQuestionAnsweringOutput` or `tuple(tf.Tensor)`

A `transformers.models.tapas.modeling_tf_tapas.TFTableQuestionAnsweringOutput` or a tuple of `tf.Tensor` (if `return_dict=False` is passed or when `config.return_dict=False`) comprising various elements depending on the configuration (TapasConfig) and inputs.

- loss (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(1,)`, optional, returned when `labels` (and possibly `answer`, `aggregation_labels`, `numeric_values` and `numeric_values_scale` are provided)) — Total loss as the sum of the hierarchical cell selection log-likelihood loss and (optionally) the semi-supervised regression loss and (optionally) supervised loss for aggregations.
- logits (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Prediction scores of the cell selection head, for every token.
- logits_aggregation (`tf.Tensor`, optional, of shape `(batch_size, num_aggregation_labels)`) — Prediction scores of the aggregation head, for every aggregation operator.
- hidden_states (`tuple(tf.Tensor)`, optional, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) — Tuple of `tf.Tensor` (one for the output of the embeddings + one for the output of each layer) of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`. Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the initial embedding outputs.
- attentions (`tuple(tf.Tensor)`, optional, returned when `output_attentions=True` is passed or when `config.output_attentions=True`) — Tuple of `tf.Tensor` (one for each layer) of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, sequence_length)`. Attentions weights after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention heads.

The TFTapasForQuestionAnswering 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, TapasForQuestionAnswering
    >>> import pandas as pd

    >>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base-finetuned-wtq")
    >>> model = TapasForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("google/tapas-base-finetuned-wtq")

    >>> data = {
    ...     "Actors": ["Brad Pitt", "Leonardo Di Caprio", "George Clooney"],
    ...     "Age": ["56", "45", "59"],
    ...     "Number of movies": ["87", "53", "69"],
    ... }
    >>> table = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(data)
    >>> queries = ["How many movies has George Clooney played in?", "How old is Brad Pitt?"]

    >>> inputs = tokenizer(table=table, queries=queries, padding="max_length", return_tensors="tf")
    >>> outputs = model(**inputs)

    >>> logits = outputs.logits
    >>> logits_aggregation = outputs.logits_aggregation
