BERT Example

Description

This example implements pre-training, fine-tuning and evaluation of BERT-base(the base version of BERT model) and BERT-NEZHA(a Chinese pretrained language model developed by Huawei, which introduced a improvement of Functional Relative Positional Encoding as an effective positional encoding scheme).

Requirements

• Install MindSpore.
• Download the zhwiki dataset for pre-training. Extract and clean text in the dataset with WikiExtractor. Convert the dataset to TFRecord format and move the files to a specified path.
• Download the CLUE dataset for fine-tuning and evaluation.

Notes:
If you are running a fine-tuning or evaluation task, prepare the corresponding checkpoint file.

Running the Example

Pre-Training

• Set options in config.py. Make sure the 'DATA_DIR'(path to the dataset) and 'SCHEMA_DIR'(path to the json schema file) are set to your own path. Click here for more information about dataset and the json schema file.

• Run run_pretrain.py for pre-training of BERT-base and BERT-NEZHA model.

  python run_pretrain.py --backend=ms
  

Fine-Tuning

• Set options in finetune_config.py. Make sure the 'data_file', 'schema_file' and 'ckpt_file' are set to your own path, set the 'pre_training_ckpt' to save the checkpoint files generated.

• Run finetune.py for fine-tuning of BERT-base and BERT-NEZHA model.

  python finetune.py --backend=ms
  

Evaluation

• Set options in evaluation_config.py. Make sure the 'data_file', 'schema_file' and 'finetune_ckpt' are set to your own path.

• Run evaluation.py for evaluation of BERT-base and BERT-NEZHA model.

  python evaluation.py --backend=ms
