Usage

• With lmqg

from lmqg import TransformersQG

# initialize model
model = TransformersQG(language="en", model="lmqg/t5-base-squadshifts-nyt-qg")

# model prediction
questions = model.generate_q(list_context="William Turner was an English painter who specialised in watercolour landscapes", list_answer="William Turner")

• With transformers

from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text2text-generation", "lmqg/t5-base-squadshifts-nyt-qg")
output = pipe("generate question: <hl> Beyonce <hl> further expanded her acting career, starring as blues singer Etta James in the 2008 musical biopic, Cadillac Records.")
