# CANINE

## CANINE

### Overview

The CANINE model was proposed in [CANINE: Pre-training an Efficient Tokenization-Free Encoder for Language Representation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.06874) by Jonathan H. Clark, Dan Garrette, Iulia Turc, John Wieting. It’s among the first papers that trains a Transformer without using an explicit tokenization step (such as Byte Pair Encoding (BPE), WordPiece or SentencePiece). Instead, the model is trained directly at a Unicode character-level. Training at a character-level inevitably comes with a longer sequence length, which CANINE solves with an efficient downsampling strategy, before applying a deep Transformer encoder.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

*Pipelined NLP systems have largely been superseded by end-to-end neural modeling, yet nearly all commonly-used models still require an explicit tokenization step. While recent tokenization approaches based on data-derived subword lexicons are less brittle than manually engineered tokenizers, these techniques are not equally suited to all languages, and the use of any fixed vocabulary may limit a model’s ability to adapt. In this paper, we present CANINE, a neural encoder that operates directly on character sequences, without explicit tokenization or vocabulary, and a pre-training strategy that operates either directly on characters or optionally uses subwords as a soft inductive bias. To use its finer-grained input effectively and efficiently, CANINE combines downsampling, which reduces the input sequence length, with a deep transformer stack, which encodes context. CANINE outperforms a comparable mBERT model by 2.8 F1 on TyDi QA, a challenging multilingual benchmark, despite having 28% fewer model parameters.*

Tips:

* CANINE uses no less than 3 Transformer encoders internally: 2 “shallow” encoders (which only consist of a single layer) and 1 “deep” encoder (which is a regular BERT encoder). First, a “shallow” encoder is used to contextualize the character embeddings, using local attention. Next, after downsampling, a “deep” encoder is applied. Finally, after upsampling, a “shallow” encoder is used to create the final character embeddings. Details regarding up- and downsampling can be found in the paper.
* CANINE uses a max sequence length of 2048 characters by default. One can use [CanineTokenizer](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/canine#transformers.CanineTokenizer) to prepare text for the model.
* Classification can be done by placing a linear layer on top of the final hidden state of the special \[CLS] token (which has a predefined Unicode code point). For token classification tasks however, the downsampled sequence of tokens needs to be upsampled again to match the length of the original character sequence (which is 2048). The details for this can be found in the paper.
* Models:
* [google/canine-c](https://huggingface.co/google/canine-c): Pre-trained with autoregressive character loss, 12-layer, 768-hidden, 12-heads, 121M parameters (size \~500 MB).
* [google/canine-s](https://huggingface.co/google/canine-s): Pre-trained with subword loss, 12-layer, 768-hidden, 12-heads, 121M parameters (size \~500 MB).

This model was contributed by [nielsr](https://huggingface.co/nielsr). The original code can be found [here](https://github.com/google-research/language/tree/master/language/canine).

#### Example

CANINE works on raw characters, so it can be used without a tokenizer:

Copied

```
>>> from transformers import CanineModel
>>> import torch

>>> model = CanineModel.from_pretrained("google/canine-c")  # model pre-trained with autoregressive character loss

>>> text = "hello world"
>>> # use Python's built-in ord() function to turn each character into its unicode code point id
>>> input_ids = torch.tensor([[ord(char) for char in text]])

>>> outputs = model(input_ids)  # forward pass
>>> pooled_output = outputs.pooler_output
>>> sequence_output = outputs.last_hidden_state
```

For batched inference and training, it is however recommended to make use of the tokenizer (to pad/truncate all sequences to the same length):

Copied

```
>>> from transformers import CanineTokenizer, CanineModel

>>> model = CanineModel.from_pretrained("google/canine-c")
>>> tokenizer = CanineTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/canine-c")

>>> inputs = ["Life is like a box of chocolates.", "You never know what you gonna get."]
>>> encoding = tokenizer(inputs, padding="longest", truncation=True, return_tensors="pt")

>>> outputs = model(**encoding)  # forward pass
>>> pooled_output = outputs.pooler_output
>>> sequence_output = outputs.last_hidden_state
```

It is used to instantiate an CANINE model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture. Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the CANINE [google/canine-s](https://huggingface.co/google/canine-s) architecture.

Configuration objects inherit from [PretrainedConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/configuration#transformers.PretrainedConfig) and can be used to control the model outputs. Read the documentation from [PretrainedConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/configuration#transformers.PretrainedConfig) for more information.

The [CanineModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/canine#transformers.CanineModel) forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Example:

Copied

```
>>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, CanineModel
>>> import torch

>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/canine-s")
>>> model = CanineModel.from_pretrained("google/canine-s")

>>> inputs = tokenizer("Hello, my dog is cute", return_tensors="pt")
>>> outputs = model(**inputs)

>>> last_hidden_states = outputs.last_hidden_state
```

The [CanineForSequenceClassification](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/canine#transformers.CanineForSequenceClassification) forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

A [transformers.modeling\_outputs.QuestionAnsweringModelOutput](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/output#transformers.modeling_outputs.QuestionAnsweringModelOutput) or a tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (if `return_dict=False` is passed or when `config.return_dict=False`) comprising various elements depending on the configuration ([CanineConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/canine#transformers.CanineConfig)) and inputs.

* **loss** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(1,)`, *optional*, returned when `labels` is provided) — Total span extraction loss is the sum of a Cross-Entropy for the start and end positions.
* **start\_logits** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Span-start scores (before SoftMax).
* **end\_logits** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Span-end scores (before SoftMax).
* **hidden\_states** (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, *optional*, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, + one for the output of each layer) of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`.

  Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.
* **attentions** (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, *optional*, returned when `output_attentions=True` is passed or when `config.output_attentions=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for each layer) of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, sequence_length)`.

  Attentions weights after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention heads.

The [CanineForQuestionAnswering](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/canine#transformers.CanineForQuestionAnswering) forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Example:

Copied

```
>>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, CanineForQuestionAnswering
>>> import torch

>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Splend1dchan/canine-c-squad")
>>> model = CanineForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("Splend1dchan/canine-c-squad")

>>> question, text = "Who was Jim Henson?", "Jim Henson was a nice puppet"

>>> inputs = tokenizer(question, text, return_tensors="pt")
>>> with torch.no_grad():
...     outputs = model(**inputs)

>>> answer_start_index = outputs.start_logits.argmax()
>>> answer_end_index = outputs.end_logits.argmax()

>>> predict_answer_tokens = inputs.input_ids[0, answer_start_index : answer_end_index + 1]
>>> tokenizer.decode(predict_answer_tokens, skip_special_tokens=True)
'nice puppet'

>>> # target is "nice puppet"
>>> target_start_index = torch.tensor([14])
>>> target_end_index = torch.tensor([15])

>>> outputs = model(**inputs, start_positions=target_start_index, end_positions=target_end_index)
>>> loss = outputs.loss
>>> round(loss.item(), 2)
8.81
