Model Description

The XLM-RoBERTa model was proposed in Unsupervised Cross-lingual Representation Learning at Scale by Alexis Conneau, Kartikay Khandelwal, Naman Goyal, Vishrav Chaudhary, Guillaume Wenzek, Francisco Guzmán, Edouard Grave, Myle Ott, Luke Zettlemoyer and Veselin Stoyanov. It is based on Facebook's RoBERTa model released in 2019. It is a large multi-lingual language model, trained on 2.5TB of filtered CommonCrawl data. This model is XLM-RoBERTa-large fine-tuned with the conll2003 dataset in English.

Developed by: See associated paper
Model type: Multi-lingual language model
Language(s) (NLP) or Countries (images): XLM-RoBERTa is a multilingual model trained on 100 different languages; see GitHub Repo for full list; model is fine-tuned on a dataset in English
Related Models: RoBERTa, XLM
- Parent Model: XLM-RoBERTa-large

Hong Kong Legal Information Institute HKILL is a free, independent, non-profit document database providing the public with legal information relating to Hong Kong. We finetune the XLM-RoBERTa on the HKILL datasets. It contains docments

Uses

The model is a pretrained-finetuned language model. The model can be used for document classification, Named Entity Recognition (NER), especially on legal domain.

>>> from transformers import pipeline,AutoTokenizer,AutoModelForTokenClassification
>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("hklegal-xlm-r-large")
>>> model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained("hklegal-xlm-r-large")
>>> classifier = pipeline("ner", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)
>>> classifier("Alya told Jasmine that Andrew could pay with cash..")
