DistilBERTZero-Shot Classification Base - MNLI(distilbert_base_zero_shot_classifier_uncased_mnli)

Description

This model is intended to be used for zero-shot text classification, especially in English. It is fine-tuned on MNLI by using DistilBERT Base Uncased model.

DistilBertForZeroShotClassification using a ModelForSequenceClassification trained on NLI (natural language inference) tasks. Equivalent of DistilBertForSequenceClassification models, but these models don’t require a hardcoded number of potential classes, they can be chosen at runtime. It usually means it’s slower but it is much more flexible.

We used TFDistilBertForSequenceClassification to train this model and used DistilBertForZeroShotClassification annotator in Spark NLP 🚀 for prediction at scale!

How to use

document_assembler = DocumentAssembler() \
.setInputCol('text') \
.setOutputCol('document')

tokenizer = Tokenizer() \
.setInputCols(['document']) \
.setOutputCol('token')

zeroShotClassifier = DistilBertForZeroShotClassification \
.pretrained('distilbert_base_zero_shot_classifier_uncased_mnli', 'en') \
.setInputCols(['token', 'document']) \
.setOutputCol('class') \
.setCaseSensitive(True) \
.setMaxSentenceLength(512) \
.setCandidateLabels(["urgent", "mobile", "travel", "movie", "music", "sport", "weather", "technology"])

pipeline = Pipeline(stages=[
document_assembler,
tokenizer,
zeroShotClassifier
])

example = spark.createDataFrame([['I have a problem with my iphone that needs to be resolved asap!!']]).toDF("text")
result = pipeline.fit(example).transform(example)
val document_assembler = DocumentAssembler()
.setInputCol("text")
.setOutputCol("document")

val tokenizer = Tokenizer()
.setInputCols("document")
.setOutputCol("token")

val zeroShotClassifier = DistilBertForZeroShotClassification.pretrained("distilbert_base_zero_shot_classifier_uncased_mnli", "en")
