DziriBERT: a Pre-trained Language Model for the Algerian Dialect

Overview

DziriBERT

dziribert drawing

DziriBERT is the first Transformer-based Language Model that has been pre-trained specifically for the Algerian Dialect. It handles Algerian text contents written using both Arabic and Latin characters. It sets new state of the art results on Algerian text classification datasets, even if it has been pre-trained on much less data (~1 million tweets).

The model is publicly available at: https://huggingface.co/alger-ia/dziribert.

For more information, please visit our paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2109.12346.pdf

Evaluation

The Twifil dataset was used to compare DziriBERT with current multilingual, standard Arabic and dialectal Arabic models:

Model Sentiment acc. Emotion acc.
bert-base-multilingual-cased 73.6 % 59.4 %
aubmindlab/bert-base-arabert 72.1 % 61.2 %
CAMeL-Lab/bert-base-arabic-camelbert-mix 77.1 % 65.7 %
qarib/bert-base-qarib 77.7 % 67.6 %
UBC-NLP/MARBERT 80.1 % 68.4 %
alger-ia/dziribert 80.3 % 69.3 %

In order to reproduce these results, please install the following requirements:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Then, run the following evaluation script:

python3 evaluate_model.py

These results have been obtained on a Tesla K80 GPU.

Pretrained DziriBERT

DziriBERT has been uploaded to the HuggingFace hub in order to facilitate its use: https://huggingface.co/alger-ia/dziribert.

It can be easily downloaded and loaded using the transformers library:

from transformers import BertTokenizer, BertForMaskedLM

tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("alger-ia/dziribert")
model = BertForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("alger-ia/dziribert")

    Salam team,

    Just went through the example, I got this error:

    HTTPError: 404 Client Error: Not Found for url: https://huggingface.co/dziribert/resolve/main/config.json
    

    Looks like the link to the config.json file has changed? P.S. I've tried this demo in colab/gitpod and got the same error message.

    Regards

    Preprocessing on sentiment data

    Hi, great work!

    Didn't you performed same preprocessing steps on sentiment data as you did for pre training data? I see in the evaluate_model.py that raw data is used.

    Thanks

Prompt-learning is the latest paradigm to adapt pre-trained language models (PLMs) to downstream NLP tasks

Prompt-learning is the latest paradigm to adapt pre-trained language models (PLMs) to downstream NLP tasks, which modifies the input text with a textual template and directly uses PLMs to conduct pre-trained tasks. This library provides a standard, flexible and extensible framework to deploy the prompt-learning pipeline. OpenPrompt supports loading PLMs directly from huggingface transformers. In the future, we will also support PLMs implemented by other libraries.

Google and Stanford University released a new pre-trained model called ELECTRA

Google and Stanford University released a new pre-trained model called ELECTRA, which has a much compact model size and relatively competitive performance compared to BERT and its variants. For further accelerating the research of the Chinese pre-trained model, the Joint Laboratory of HIT and iFLYTEK Research (HFL) has released the Chinese ELECTRA models based on the official code of ELECTRA. ELECTRA-small could reach similar or even higher scores on several NLP tasks with only 1/10 parameters compared to BERT and its variants.
