# MASS: Masked Sequence to Sequence Pre-training for Language Generation Description

[MASS: Masked Sequence to Sequence Pre-training for Language Generation](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/uploads/prod/2019/06/MASS-paper-updated-002.pdf) was released by MicroSoft in June 2019.

BERT(Devlin et al., 2018) have achieved SOTA in natural language understanding area by pre-training the encoder part of Transformer(Vaswani et al., 2017) with masked rich-resource text. Likewise, GPT(Raddford et al., 2018) pre-trains the decoder part of Transformer with masked(encoder inputs are masked) rich-resource text. Both of them build a robust language model by pre-training with masked rich-resource text.

Inspired by BERT, GPT and other language models, MicroSoft addressed [MASS: Masked Sequence to Sequence Pre-training for Language Generation](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/uploads/prod/2019/06/MASS-paper-updated-002.pdf) which combines BERT's and GPT's idea. MASS has an important parameter k, which controls the masked fragment length. BERT and GPT are specicl case when k equals to 1 and sentence length.

[Introducing MASS – A pre-training method that outperforms BERT and GPT in sequence to sequence language generation tasks](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/blog/introducing-mass-a-pre-training-method-that-outperforms-bert-and-gpt-in-sequence-to-sequence-language-generation-tasks/)

[Paper](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/uploads/prod/2019/06/MASS-paper-updated-002.pdf): Song, Kaitao, Xu Tan, Tao Qin, Jianfeng Lu and Tie-Yan Liu. “MASS: Masked Sequence to Sequence Pre-training for Language Generation.” ICML (2019).

# Model architecture

The overall network architecture of MASS is shown below, which is Transformer(Vaswani et al., 2017):

MASS is consisted of 6-layer encoder and 6-layer decoder with 1024 embedding/hidden size, and 4096 intermediate size between feed forward network which has two full connection layers.

# Dataset

Dataset used:

- monolingual English data from News Crawl dataset(WMT 2019) for pre-training.
- Gigaword Corpus(Graff et al., 2003) for Text Summarization.
- Cornell movie dialog corpus(DanescuNiculescu-Mizil & Lee, 2011).

Details about those dataset could be found in [MASS: Masked Sequence to Sequence Pre-training for Language Generation](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/uploads/prod/2019/06/MASS-paper-updated-002.pdf).

# Features

Mass is designed to jointly pre train encoder and decoder to complete the task of language generation.
First of all, through a sequence to sequence framework, mass only predicts the blocked token, which forces the encoder to understand the meaning of the unshielded token, and encourages the decoder to extract useful information from the encoder.
Secondly, by predicting the continuous token of the decoder, the decoder can build better language modeling ability than only predicting discrete token.
Third, by further shielding the input token of the decoder which is not shielded in the encoder, the decoder is encouraged to extract more useful information from the encoder side, rather than using the rich information in the previous token.

## Data Preparation

The data preparation of a natural language processing task contains data cleaning, tokenization, encoding and vocabulary generation steps.

In our experiments, using [Byte Pair Encoding(BPE)](https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.07909) could reduce size of vocabulary, and relieve the OOV influence effectively.

Vocabulary could be created using `src/utils/dictionary.py` with text dictionary which is learnt from BPE.
For more detail about BPE, please refer to [Subword-nmt lib](https://www.cnpython.com/pypi/subword-nmt) or [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.07909).

In our experiments, vocabulary was learned based on 1.9M sentences from News Crawl Dataset, size of vocabulary is 45755.

Here, we have a brief introduction of data preparation scripts.

### Tokenization

Using `tokenize_corpus.py` could tokenize corpus whose text files are in format of `.txt`.

Major parameters in `tokenize_corpus.py`:

```bash
--corpus_folder:     Corpus folder path, if multi-folders are provided, use ',' split folders.
--output_folder:     Output folder path.
--tokenizer:         Tokenizer to be used, nltk or jieba, if nltk is not installed fully, use jieba instead.
--pool_size:         Processes pool size.
```

Sample code:

```bash
python tokenize_corpus.py --corpus_folder /{path}/corpus --output_folder /{path}/tokenized_corpus --tokenizer {nltk|jieba} --pool_size 16
```

### Byte Pair Encoding

After tokenization, BPE is applied to tokenized corpus with provided `all.bpe.codes`.

Apply BPE script can be found in `apply_bpe_encoding.py`.

Major parameters in `apply_bpe_encoding.py`:

```bash
--codes:            BPE codes file.
--src_folder:       Corpus folders.
--output_folder:    Output files folder.
--prefix:           Prefix of text file in `src_folder`.
--vocab_path:       Generated vocabulary output path.
--threshold:        Filter out words that frequency is lower than threshold.
--processes:        Size of process pool (to accelerate). Default: 2.
```

Sample code:

```bash
python tokenize_corpus.py --codes /{path}/all.bpe.codes \
    --src_folder /{path}/tokenized_corpus \
    --output_folder /{path}/tokenized_corpus/bpe \
    --prefix tokenized \
    --vocab_path /{path}/vocab_en.dict.bin
    --processes 32
```

### Build Vocabulary

Support that you want to create a new vocabulary, there are two options:

1. Learn BPE codes from scratch, and create vocabulary with multi vocabulary files from `subword-nmt`.
2. Create from an existing vocabulary file which lines in the format of `word frequency`.
3. *Optional*, Create a small vocabulary based on `vocab/all_en.dict.bin` with method of `shink` from `src/utils/dictionary.py`.
4. Persistent vocabulary to `vocab` folder with method `persistence()`.

Major interface of `src/utils/dictionary.py` are as follow:

1. `shrink(self, threshold=50)`: Shrink the size of vocabulary by filter out words frequency is lower than threshold. It returns a new vocabulary.
2. `load_from_text(cls, filepaths: List[str])`: Load existed text vocabulary which lines in the format of `word frequency`.  
3. `load_from_persisted_dict(cls, filepath)`: Load from a persisted binary vocabulary which was saved by calling `persistence()` method.
4. `persistence(self, path)`: Save vocabulary object to binary file.

Sample code:

```python
from src.utils import Dictionary

vocabulary = Dictionary.load_from_persisted_dict("vocab/all_en.dict.bin")
tokens = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
# Convert ids to symbols.
print([vocabulary[t] for t in tokens])

sentence = ["Hello", "world"]
# Convert symbols to ids.
print([vocabulary.index[s] for s in sentence])
```

## Configuration

Json file under the path `config/` is the template configuration file.
Almost all of the options and arguments needed could be assigned conveniently, including the training platform, configurations of dataset and model, arguments of optimizer etc. Optional features such as loss scale and checkpoint are also available by setting the options correspondingly.
For more detailed information about the attributes, refer to the file `config/config.py`.

## Training & Evaluation process

For training a model, the shell script `run_ascend.sh` or `run_gpu.sh` is all you need. In this scripts, the environment variable is set and the training script `train.py` under `mass` is executed.
You may start a task training with single device or multiple devices by assigning the options and run the command in bash:

Ascend:

```ascend
sh run_ascend.sh [--options]
```

GPU:

```gpu
sh run_gpu.sh [--options]
```

The usage of `run_ascend.sh` is shown as below:

```text
Usage: run_ascend.sh [-h, --help] [-t, --task <CHAR>] [-n, --device_num <N>]
                     [-i, --device_id <N>] [-j, --hccl_json <FILE>]
                     [-c, --config <FILE>] [-o, --output <FILE>]
                     [-v, --vocab <FILE>]

options:
    -h, --help               show usage
    -t, --task               select task: CHAR, 't' for train and 'i' for inference".
    -n, --device_num         device number used for training: N, default is 1.
    -i, --device_id          device id used for training with single device: N, 0<=N<=7, default is 0.
    -j, --hccl_json          rank table file used for training with multiple devices: FILE.
    -c, --config             configuration file as shown in the path 'mass/config': FILE.
    -o, --output             assign output file of inference: FILE.
    -v, --vocab              set the vocabulary.
    -m, --metric             set the metric.
```

Notes: Be sure to assign the hccl_json file while running a distributed-training.

The usage of `run_gpu.sh` is shown as below:

```text
Usage: run_gpu.sh [-h, --help] [-t, --task <CHAR>] [-n, --device_num <N>]
                     [-i, --device_id <N>] [-c, --config <FILE>]
                     [-o, --output <FILE>] [-v, --vocab <FILE>]

options:
    -h, --help               show usage
    -t, --task               select task: CHAR, 't' for train and 'i' for inference".
    -n, --device_num         device number used for training: N, default is 1.
    -i, --device_id          device id used for training with single device: N, 0<=N<=7, default is 0.
    -c, --config             configuration file as shown in the path 'mass/config': FILE.
    -o, --output             assign output file of inference: FILE.
    -v, --vocab              set the vocabulary.
    -m, --metric             set the metric.
```

The command followed shows a example for training with 2 devices.
Ascend:

```ascend
sh run_ascend.sh --task t --device_num 2 --hccl_json /{path}/rank_table.json --config /{path}/config.json
```

ps. Discontinuous device id is not supported in `run_ascend.sh` at present, device id in `rank_table.json` must start from 0.

GPU:

```gpu
sh run_gpu.sh --task t --device_num 2 --config /{path}/config.json
```

If use a single chip, it would be like this:
Ascend:

```ascend
sh run_ascend.sh --task t --device_num 1 --device_id 0 --config /{path}/config.json
```

GPU:

```gpu
sh run_gpu.sh --task t --device_num 1 --device_id 0 --config /{path}/config.json
```

## Weights average

```python
python weights_average.py --input_files your_checkpoint_list --output_file model.npz
```

The input_files is a list of you checkpoints file. To use model.npz as the weights, add its path in config.json at "existed_ckpt".

```json
{
  ...
  "checkpoint_options": {
    "existed_ckpt": "/xxx/xxx/model.npz",
    "save_ckpt_steps": 1000,
    ...
  },
  ...
}
```

## Learning rate scheduler

Two learning rate scheduler are provided in our model:

1. [Polynomial decay scheduler](https://towardsdatascience.com/learning-rate-schedules-and-adaptive-learning-rate-methods-for-deep-learning-2c8f433990d1).
2. [Inverse square root scheduler](https://ece.uwaterloo.ca/~dwharder/aads/Algorithms/Inverse_square_root/).

LR scheduler could be config in `config/config.json`.

For Polynomial decay scheduler, config could be like:

```json
{
  ...
  "learn_rate_config": {
    "optimizer": "adam",
    "lr": 1e-4,
    "lr_scheduler": "poly",
    "poly_lr_scheduler_power": 0.5,
    "decay_steps": 10000,
    "warmup_steps": 2000,
    "min_lr": 1e-6
  },
  ...
}
```

For Inverse square root scheduler, config could be like:

```json
{
  ...
  "learn_rate_config": {
    "optimizer": "adam",
    "lr": 1e-4,
    "lr_scheduler": "isr",
    "decay_start_step": 12000,
    "warmup_steps": 2000,
    "min_lr": 1e-6
  },
  ...
}
```

More detail about LR scheduler could be found in `src/utils/lr_scheduler.py`.

# Model description

The MASS network is implemented by Transformer, which has multi-encoder layers and multi-decoder layers.
For pre-training, we use the Adam optimizer and loss-scale to get the pre-trained model.
During fine-turning, we fine-tune this pre-trained model with different dataset according to different tasks.
During testing, we use the fine-turned model to predict the result, and adopt a beam search algorithm to
get the most possible prediction results.

# Get started

MASS pre-trains a sequence to sequence model by predicting the masked fragments in an input sequence. After this, downstream tasks including text summarization and conversation response are candidated for fine-tuning the model and for inference.
Here we provide a practice example to demonstrate the basic usage of MASS for pre-training, fine-tuning a model, and the inference process. The overall process is as follows:

1. Download and process the dataset.
2. Modify the `config.json` to config the network.
3. Run a task for pre-training and fine-tuning.
4. Perform inference and validation.

## Pre-training

For pre-training a model, config the options in `config.json` firstly:

- Assign the `pre_train_dataset` under `dataset_config` node to the dataset path.
- Choose the optimizer('momentum/adam/lamb' is available).
- Assign the 'ckpt_prefix' and 'ckpt_path' under `checkpoint_path` to save the model files.
- Set other arguments including dataset configurations and network configurations.
- If you have a trained model already, assign the `existed_ckpt` to the checkpoint file.

If you use the ascend chip, run the shell script `run_ascend.sh` as followed:

```ascend
sh run_ascend.sh -t t -n 1 -i 1 -c /mass/config/config.json
```

You can also run the shell script `run_gpu.sh` on gpu as followed:

```gpu
sh run_gpu.sh -t t -n 1 -i 1 -c /mass/config/config.json
```

Get the log and output files under the path `./train_mass_*/`, and the model file under the path assigned in the `config/config.json` file.

## Fine-tuning

For fine-tuning a model, config the options in `config.json` firstly:

- Assign the `fine_tune_dataset` under `dataset_config` node to the dataset path.
- Assign the `existed_ckpt` under `checkpoint_path` node to the existed model file generated by pre-training.
- Choose the optimizer('momentum/adam/lamb' is available).
- Assign the `ckpt_prefix` and `ckpt_path` under `checkpoint_path` node to save the model files.
- Set other arguments including dataset configurations and network configurations.

If you use the ascend chip, run the shell script `run_ascend.sh` as followed:

```ascend
sh run_ascend.sh -t t -n 1 -i 1 -c config/config.json
```

You can also run the shell script `run_gpu.sh` on gpu as followed:

```gpu
sh run_gpu.sh -t t -n 1 -i 1 -c config/config.json
```

Get the log and output files under the path `./train_mass_*/`, and the model file under the path assigned in the `config/config.json` file.

## Inference

If you need to use the trained model to perform inference on multiple hardware platforms, such as GPU, Ascend 910 or Ascend 310, you can refer to this [Link](https://www.mindspore.cn/tutorial/training/en/master/advanced_use/migrate_3rd_scripts.html).
For inference, config the options in `config.json` firstly:

- Assign the `test_dataset` under `dataset_config` node to the dataset path.
- Assign the `existed_ckpt` under `checkpoint_path` node to the model file produced by fine-tuning.
- Choose the optimizer('momentum/adam/lamb' is available).
- Assign the `ckpt_prefix` and `ckpt_path` under `checkpoint_path` node to save the model files.
- Set other arguments including dataset configurations and network configurations.

If you use the ascend chip, run the shell script `run_ascend.sh` as followed:

```bash
sh run_ascend.sh -t i -n 1 -i 1 -c config/config.json -o {outputfile}
```

You can also run the shell script `run_gpu.sh` on gpu as followed:

```gpu
sh run_gpu.sh -t i -n 1 -i 1 -c config/config.json -o {outputfile}
```

# Description of random situation

MASS model contains dropout operations, if you want to disable dropout, please set related dropout_rate to 0 in `config/config.json`.

# others

The model has been validated on Ascend environment, not validated on CPU and GPU.
