# deberta-v3-base for QA

This is the [deberta-v3-base](https://huggingface.co/microsoft/deberta-v3-base) model, fine-tuned using the [SQuAD2.0](https://huggingface.co/datasets/squad_v2) dataset. It's been trained on question-answer pairs, including unanswerable questions, for the task of Extractive Question Answering.

## Overview
**Language model:** deberta-v3-base  
**Language:** English  
**Downstream-task:** Extractive QA  
**Training data:** SQuAD 2.0  
**Eval data:** SQuAD 2.0  
**Infrastructure**: 1x NVIDIA 3070  

## Model Usage
```python
from transformers import AutoModelForQuestionAnswering, AutoTokenizer, pipeline
model_name = "sjrhuschlee/deberta-v3-base-squad2"

# a) Using pipelines
nlp = pipeline('question-answering', model=model_name, tokenizer=model_name)
qa_input = {
'question': 'Where do I live?',
'context': 'My name is Sarah and I live in London'
}
res = nlp(qa_input)

# b) Load model & tokenizer
model = AutoModelForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained(model_name)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
```
