roberta-base-squad2 for QA on COVID-19
Overview
Language model: deepset/roberta-base-squad2
Language: English
Downstream-task: Extractive QA
Training data: SQuAD-style CORD-19 annotations from 23rd April
Code: See an example QA pipeline on Haystack
Infrastructure: Tesla v100

Performance
5-fold cross-validation on the data set led to the following results:
Single EM-Scores: [0.222, 0.123, 0.234, 0.159, 0.158]
Single F1-Scores: [0.476, 0.493, 0.599, 0.461, 0.465]
Single top\_3\_recall Scores: [0.827, 0.776, 0.860, 0.771, 0.777]
XVAL EM: 0.17890995260663506
XVAL f1: 0.49925444207319924
XVAL top\_3\_recall: 0.8021327014218009
This model is the model obtained from the third fold of the cross-validation.
Usage
In Haystack
For doing QA at scale (i.e. many docs instead of single paragraph), you can load the model also in haystack:
reader = FARMReader(model_name_or_path="deepset/roberta-base-squad2-covid")
# or
reader = TransformersReader(model="deepset/roberta-base-squad2",tokenizer="deepset/roberta-base-squad2-covid")
In Transformers
from transformers import AutoModelForQuestionAnswering, AutoTokenizer, pipeline
model_name = "deepset/roberta-base-squad2-covid"
# a) Get predictions
nlp = pipeline('question-answering', model=model_name, tokenizer=model_name)
QA_input = {
'question': 'Why is model conversion important?',
'context': 'The option to convert models between FARM and transformers gives freedom to the user and let people easily switch between frameworks.'
}
res = nlp(QA_input)
# b) Load model & tokenizer
model = AutoModelForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained(model_name)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
