# ScandiNLI - Natural Language Inference model for Scandinavian Languages

This model is a fine-tuned version of [jonfd/electra-small-nordic](https://huggingface.co/jonfd/electra-small-nordic) for Natural Language Inference in Danish, Norwegian Bokmål and Swedish.

It has been fine-tuned on a dataset composed of [DanFEVER](https://aclanthology.org/2021.nodalida-main.pdf#page=439) as well as machine translated versions of [MultiNLI](https://cims.nyu.edu/~sbowman/multinli/) and [CommitmentBank](https://doi.org/10.18148/sub/2019.v23i2.601) into all three languages, and machine translated versions of [FEVER](https://aclanthology.org/N18-1074/) and [Adversarial NLI](https://aclanthology.org/2020.acl-main.441/) into Swedish.

The three languages are sampled equally during training, and they're validated on validation splits of [DanFEVER](https://aclanthology.org/2021.nodalida-main.pdf#page=439) and machine translated versions of [MultiNLI](https://cims.nyu.edu/~sbowman/multinli/) for Swedish and Norwegian Bokmål, sampled equally.


## Quick start

You can use this model in your scripts as follows:

```python
>>> from transformers import pipeline
>>> classifier = pipeline(
...     "zero-shot-classification",
...     model="alexandrainst/electra-small-nordic-nli-scandi",
... )
>>> classifier(
...     "Mexicansk bokser advarer Messi - 'Du skal bede til gud, om at jeg ikke finder dig'",
...     candidate_labels=['sundhed', 'politik', 'sport', 'religion'],
...     hypothesis_template="Dette eksempel handler om {}",
... )
{'sequence': "Mexicansk bokser advarer Messi - 'Du skal bede til gud, om at jeg ikke finder dig'",
 'labels': ['religion', 'sport', 'politik', 'sundhed'],
 'scores': [0.4504755437374115,
  0.20737220346927643,
  0.1976872682571411,
  0.14446501433849335]}
```
