## FlauBERT

[![Models](https://img.shields.io/badge/All_model_pages-flaubert-blueviolet)](https://huggingface.co/models?filter=flaubert)[![Spaces](https://img.shields.io/badge/%F0%9F%A4%97%20Hugging%20Face-Spaces-blue)](https://huggingface.co/spaces/docs-demos/flaubert_small_cased)

### Overview

The FlauBERT model was proposed in the paper [FlauBERT: Unsupervised Language Model Pre-training for French](https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.05372) by Hang Le et al. It’s a transformer model pretrained using a masked language modeling (MLM) objective (like BERT).

The abstract from the paper is the following:

*Language models have become a key step to achieve state-of-the art results in many different Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks. Leveraging the huge amount of unlabeled texts nowadays available, they provide an efficient way to pre-train continuous word representations that can be fine-tuned for a downstream task, along with their contextualization at the sentence level. This has been widely demonstrated for English using contextualized representations (Dai and Le, 2015; Peters et al., 2018; Howard and Ruder, 2018; Radford et al., 2018; Devlin et al., 2019; Yang et al., 2019b). In this paper, we introduce and share FlauBERT, a model learned on a very large and heterogeneous French corpus. Models of different sizes are trained using the new CNRS (French National Centre for Scientific Research) Jean Zay supercomputer. We apply our French language models to diverse NLP tasks (text classification, paraphrasing, natural language inference, parsing, word sense disambiguation) and show that most of the time they outperform other pretraining approaches. Different versions of FlauBERT as well as a unified evaluation protocol for the downstream tasks, called FLUE (French Language Understanding Evaluation), are shared to the research community for further reproducible experiments in French NLP.*

This model was contributed by [formiel](https://huggingface.co/formiel). The original code can be found [here](https://github.com/getalp/Flaubert).

Tips:

* Like RoBERTa, without the sentence ordering prediction (so just trained on the MLM objective).

Construct a Flaubert tokenizer. Based on Byte-Pair Encoding. The tokenization process is the following:

* Moses preprocessing and tokenization.
* Normalizing all inputs text.

  Indices can be obtained using [AutoTokenizer](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoTokenizer). See [PreTrainedTokenizer.encode()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/tokenizer#transformers.PreTrainedTokenizerFast.encode) and [PreTrainedTokenizer.**call**()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/vits#transformers.VitsTokenizer.__call__) for details.

You can also use `attention_mask` for the same result (see above), kept here for compatibility. Indices selected in `[0, ..., input_ids.size(-1)]`:
* **cache** (`Dict[str, torch.FloatTensor]`, *optional*) — Dictionary strings to `torch.FloatTensor` that contains precomputed hidden-states (key and values in the attention blocks) as computed by the model (see `cache` output below). Can be used to speed up sequential decoding. The dictionary object will be modified in-place during the forward pass to add newly computed hidden-states.

* **inputs\_embeds** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, *optional*) — Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.

A [transformers.modeling\_outputs.BaseModelOutput](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/output#transformers.modeling_outputs.BaseModelOutput) 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 ([FlaubertConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/flaubert#transformers.FlaubertConfig)) and inputs.

  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 [FlaubertModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/flaubert#transformers.FlaubertModel) 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, FlaubertModel
>>> import torch

>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("flaubert/flaubert_base_cased")
>>> model = FlaubertModel.from_pretrained("flaubert/flaubert_base_cased")

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

>>> last_hidden_states = outputs.last_hidden_state
```

  * 0 indicates the head is **masked**.
* **inputs\_embeds** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, *optional*) — Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation.

Note that the labels **are shifted** inside the model, i.e. you can set `labels = input_ids` Indices are selected in `[-100, 0, ..., config.vocab_size]` All labels set to `-100` are ignored (masked), the loss is only computed for labels in `[0, ..., config.vocab_size]`

  Indices can be obtained using [AutoTokenizer](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoTokenizer). See [PreTrainedTokenizer.encode()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/tokenizer#transformers.PreTrainedTokenizerFast.encode) and [PreTrainedTokenizer.**call**()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/vits#transformers.VitsTokenizer.__call__) for details.

  [What are input IDs?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#input-ids)
* **attention\_mask** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:

  * 1 for tokens that are **not masked**,
  * 0 for tokens that are **masked**.

  [What are attention masks?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#attention-mask)
* **token\_type\_ids** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — Segment token indices to indicate first and second portions of the inputs. Indices are selected in `[0, 1]`:

  * 0 corresponds to a *sentence A* token,
  * 1 corresponds to a *sentence B* token.

  [What are token type IDs?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#token-type-ids)
* **position\_ids** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. Selected in the range `[0, config.max_position_embeddings - 1]`.

  [What are position IDs?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#position-ids)
* **lengths** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size,)`, *optional*) — Length of each sentence that can be used to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. You can also use `attention_mask` for the same result (see above), kept here for compatibility. Indices selected in `[0, ..., input_ids.size(-1)]`:
* **cache** (`Dict[str, torch.FloatTensor]`, *optional*) — Dictionary strings to `torch.FloatTensor` that contains precomputed hidden-states (key and values in the attention blocks) as computed by the model (see `cache` output below). Can be used to speed up sequential decoding. The dictionary object will be modified in-place during the forward pass to add newly computed hidden-states.
* **head\_mask** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, *optional*) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  * 1 indicates the head is **not masked**,
  * 0 indicates the head is **masked**.
* **inputs\_embeds** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, *optional*) — Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.
* **output\_attentions** (`bool`, *optional*) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail.
* **output\_hidden\_states** (`bool`, *optional*) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for more detail.
* **return\_dict** (`bool`, *optional*) — Whether or not to return a [ModelOutput](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/output#transformers.utils.ModelOutput) instead of a plain tuple.
* **labels** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — Labels for computing the token classification loss. Indices should be in `[0, ..., config.num_labels - 1]`.

Returns

[transformers.modeling\_outputs.TokenClassifierOutput](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/output#transformers.modeling_outputs.TokenClassifierOutput) or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

A [transformers.modeling\_outputs.TokenClassifierOutput](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/output#transformers.modeling_outputs.TokenClassifierOutput) 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 ([FlaubertConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/flaubert#transformers.FlaubertConfig)) and inputs.

* **loss** (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(1,)`, *optional*, returned when `labels` is provided) — Classification loss.

* **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 [FlaubertForTokenClassification](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/flaubert#transformers.FlaubertForTokenClassification) 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, FlaubertForTokenClassification
>>> import torch

>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("flaubert/flaubert_base_cased")
>>> model = FlaubertForTokenClassification.from_pretrained("flaubert/flaubert_base_cased")

>>> inputs = tokenizer(
...     "BOINCAI is a company based in Paris and New York", add_special_tokens=False, return_tensors="pt"
... )

>>> with torch.no_grad():
...     logits = model(**inputs).logits

>>> predicted_token_class_ids = logits.argmax(-1)

>>> # Note that tokens are classified rather then input words which means that
>>> # there might be more predicted token classes than words.
>>> # Multiple token classes might account for the same word
>>> predicted_tokens_classes = [model.config.id2label[t.item()] for t in predicted_token_class_ids[0]]

>>> labels = predicted_token_class_ids
>>> loss = model(**inputs, labels=labels).loss

Parameters

* **config** ([FlaubertConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/flaubert#transformers.FlaubertConfig)) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration.

The bare Flaubert Model transformer outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.

This model inherits from [TFPreTrainedModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/model#transformers.TFPreTrainedModel). Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a [tf.keras.Model](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/Model) subclass. Use it as a regular TF 2.0 Keras Model and refer to the TF 2.0 documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

TensorFlow models and layers in `transformers` accept two formats as input:

* having all inputs as keyword arguments (like PyTorch models), or
* having all inputs as a list, tuple or dict in the first positional argument.

The reason the second format is supported is that Keras methods prefer this format when passing inputs to models and layers. Because of this support, when using methods like `model.fit()` things should “just work” for you - just pass your inputs and labels in any format that `model.fit()` supports! If, however, you want to use the second format outside of Keras methods like `fit()` and `predict()`, such as when creating your own layers or models with the Keras `Functional` API, there are three possibilities you can use to gather all the input Tensors in the first positional argument:

* a single Tensor with `input_ids` only and nothing else: `model(input_ids)`
* a list of varying length with one or several input Tensors IN THE ORDER given in the docstring: `model([input_ids, attention_mask])` or `model([input_ids, attention_mask, token_type_ids])`
* a dictionary with one or several input Tensors associated to the input names given in the docstring: `model({"input_ids": input_ids, "token_type_ids": token_type_ids})`

Note that when creating models and layers with [subclassing](https://keras.io/guides/making_new_layers_and_models_via_subclassing/) then you don’t need to worry about any of this, as you can just pass inputs like you would to any other Python function!

  Indices can be obtained using [AutoTokenizer](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoTokenizer). See [PreTrainedTokenizer.**call**()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/vits#transformers.VitsTokenizer.__call__) and [PreTrainedTokenizer.encode()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/tokenizer#transformers.PreTrainedTokenizerFast.encode) for details.

  [What are input IDs?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#input-ids)
* **attention\_mask** (`Numpy array` or `tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:

  * `1` for tokens that are **not masked**,
  * `0` for tokens that are **masked**.

  [What are attention masks?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#attention-mask)
* **langs** (`tf.Tensor` or `Numpy array` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — A parallel sequence of tokens to be used to indicate the language of each token in the input. Indices are languages ids which can be obtained from the language names by using two conversion mappings provided in the configuration of the model (only provided for multilingual models). More precisely, the *language name to language id* mapping is in `model.config.lang2id` (which is a dictionary string to int) and the *language id to language name* mapping is in `model.config.id2lang` (dictionary int to string).

  See usage examples detailed in the [multilingual documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/multilingual).
* **token\_type\_ids** (`tf.Tensor` or `Numpy array` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — Segment token indices to indicate first and second portions of the inputs. Indices are selected in `[0, 1]`:

  * `0` corresponds to a *sentence A* token,
  * `1` corresponds to a *sentence B* token.

  [What are token type IDs?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#token-type-ids)
* **position\_ids** (`tf.Tensor` or `Numpy array` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. Selected in the range `[0, config.max_position_embeddings - 1]`.

  [What are position IDs?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#position-ids)
* **lengths** (`tf.Tensor` or `Numpy array` of shape `(batch_size,)`, *optional*) — Length of each sentence that can be used to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. You can also use *attention\_mask* for the same result (see above), kept here for compatibility Indices selected in `[0, ..., input_ids.size(-1)]`:
* **cache** (`Dict[str, tf.Tensor]`, *optional*) — Dictionary string to `tf.FloatTensor` that contains precomputed hidden states (key and values in the attention blocks) as computed by the model (see `cache` output below). Can be used to speed up sequential decoding.

  The dictionary object will be modified in-place during the forward pass to add newly computed hidden-states.
* **head\_mask** (`Numpy array` or `tf.Tensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, *optional*) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  * `1` indicates the head is **not masked**,
  * `0` indicates the head is **masked**.
* **inputs\_embeds** (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, *optional*) — Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation.

* **langs** (`tf.Tensor` or `Numpy array` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — A parallel sequence of tokens to be used to indicate the language of each token in the input. Indices are languages ids which can be obtained from the language names by using two conversion mappings provided in the configuration of the model (only provided for multilingual models). More precisely, the *language name to language id* mapping is in `model.config.lang2id` (which is a dictionary string to int) and the *language id to language name* mapping is in `model.config.id2lang` (dictionary int to string).

  See usage examples detailed in the [multilingual documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/multilingual).
* **token\_type\_ids** (`tf.Tensor` or `Numpy array` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — Segment token indices to indicate first and second portions of the inputs. Indices are selected in `[0, 1]`:

Parameters

* **input\_ids** (`Numpy array` or `tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

  Indices can be obtained using [AutoTokenizer](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoTokenizer). See [PreTrainedTokenizer.**call**()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/vits#transformers.VitsTokenizer.__call__) and [PreTrainedTokenizer.encode()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/tokenizer#transformers.PreTrainedTokenizerFast.encode) for details.

  [What are input IDs?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#input-ids)

  * `1` for tokens that are **not masked**,
  * `0` for tokens that are **masked**.

  [What are attention masks?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#attention-mask)
* **langs** (`tf.Tensor` or `Numpy array` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — A parallel sequence of tokens to be used to indicate the language of each token in the input. Indices are languages ids which can be obtained from the language names by using two conversion mappings provided in the configuration of the model (only provided for multilingual models). More precisely, the *language name to language id* mapping is in `model.config.lang2id` (which is a dictionary string to int) and the *language id to language name* mapping is in `model.config.id2lang` (dictionary int to string).

  See usage examples detailed in the [multilingual documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/multilingual).
* **token\_type\_ids** (`tf.Tensor` or `Numpy array` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, *optional*) — Segment token indices to indicate first and second portions of the inputs. Indices are selected in `[0, 1]`:

* **training** (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not to use the model in training mode (some modules like dropout modules have different behaviors between training and evaluation).

The [TFFlaubertForMultipleChoice](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/flaubert#transformers.TFFlaubertForMultipleChoice) 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, TFFlaubertForMultipleChoice
>>> import tensorflow as tf

>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("flaubert/flaubert_base_cased")

>>> encoding = tokenizer([prompt, prompt], [choice0, choice1], return_tensors="tf", padding=True)
>>> inputs = {k: tf.expand_dims(v, 0) for k, v in encoding.items()}
>>> outputs = model(inputs)  # batch size is 1

( \*args\*\*kwargs )

Parameters

* **config** ([FlaubertConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/flaubert#transformers.FlaubertConfig)) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model. Initializing with a config file does not load the weights associated with the model, only the configuration. Check out the [from\_pretrained()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel.from_pretrained) method to load the model weights.

Flaubert Model with a token classification head on top (a linear layer on top of the hidden-states output) e.g. for Named-Entity-Recognition (NER) tasks.

This model inherits from [TFPreTrainedModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/model#transformers.TFPreTrainedModel). Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads etc.)

This model is also a [tf.keras.Model](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/Model) subclass. Use it as a regular TF 2.0 Keras Model and refer to the TF 2.0 documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

TensorFlow models and layers in `transformers` accept two formats as input:

* having all inputs as keyword arguments (like PyTorch models), or
* having all inputs as a list, tuple or dict in the first positional argument.

The reason the second format is supported is that Keras methods prefer this format when passing inputs to models and layers. Because of this support, when using methods like `model.fit()` things should “just work” for you - just pass your inputs and labels in any format that `model.fit()` supports! If, however, you want to use the second format outside of Keras methods like `fit()` and `predict()`, such as when creating your own layers or models with the Keras `Functional` API, there are three possibilities you can use to gather all the input Tensors in the first positional argument:

* a single Tensor with `input_ids` only and nothing else: `model(input_ids)`
* a list of varying length with one or several input Tensors IN THE ORDER given in the docstring: `model([input_ids, attention_mask])` or `model([input_ids, attention_mask, token_type_ids])`
* a dictionary with one or several input Tensors associated to the input names given in the docstring: `model({"input_ids": input_ids, "token_type_ids": token_type_ids})`

Note that when creating models and layers with [subclassing](https://keras.io/guides/making_new_layers_and_models_via_subclassing/) then you don’t need to worry about any of this, as you can just pass inputs like you would to any other Python function!

* **head\_mask** (`Numpy array` or `tf.Tensor` of shape `(num_heads,)` or `(num_layers, num_heads)`, *optional*) — Mask to nullify selected heads of the self-attention modules. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  * `1` indicates the head is **not masked**,
  * `0` indicates the head is **masked**.
* **inputs\_embeds** (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, *optional*) — Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.
* **output\_attentions** (`bool`, *optional*) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail. This argument can be used only in eager mode, in graph mode the value in the config will be used instead.
* **output\_hidden\_states** (`bool`, *optional*) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for more detail. This argument can be used only in eager mode, in graph mode the value in the config will be used instead.
* **return\_dict** (`bool`, *optional*) — Whether or not to return a [ModelOutput](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/output#transformers.utils.ModelOutput) instead of a plain tuple. This argument can be used in eager mode, in graph mode the value will always be set to True.
* **training** (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not to use the model in training mode (some modules like dropout modules have different behaviors between training and evaluation).
* **start\_positions** (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size,)`, *optional*) — Labels for position (index) of the start of the labelled span for computing the token classification loss. Positions are clamped to the length of the sequence (`sequence_length`). Position outside of the sequence are not taken into account for computing the loss.
* **end\_positions** (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size,)`, *optional*) — Labels for position (index) of the end of the labelled span for computing the token classification loss. Positions are clamped to the length of the sequence (`sequence_length`). Position outside of the sequence are not taken into account for computing the loss.

Returns

[transformers.modeling\_tf\_outputs.TFQuestionAnsweringModelOutput](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/output#transformers.modeling_tf_outputs.TFQuestionAnsweringModelOutput) or `tuple(tf.Tensor)`

A [transformers.modeling\_tf\_outputs.TFQuestionAnsweringModelOutput](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/output#transformers.modeling_tf_outputs.TFQuestionAnsweringModelOutput) or a tuple of `tf.Tensor` (if `return_dict=False` is passed or when `config.return_dict=False`) comprising various elements depending on the configuration ([FlaubertConfig](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/flaubert#transformers.FlaubertConfig)) and inputs.

* **loss** (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, )`, *optional*, returned when `start_positions` and `end_positions` are provided) — Total span extraction loss is the sum of a Cross-Entropy for the start and end positions.
* **start\_logits** (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Span-start scores (before SoftMax).
* **end\_logits** (`tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Span-end scores (before SoftMax).
* **hidden\_states** (`tuple(tf.Tensor)`, *optional*, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) — Tuple of `tf.Tensor` (one for the output of the embeddings + 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 initial embedding outputs.
* **attentions** (`tuple(tf.Tensor)`, *optional*, returned when `output_attentions=True` is passed or when `config.output_attentions=True`) — Tuple of `tf.Tensor` (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 [TFFlaubertForQuestionAnsweringSimple](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/flaubert#transformers.TFFlaubertForQuestionAnsweringSimple) 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, TFFlaubertForQuestionAnsweringSimple
>>> import tensorflow as tf

>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("flaubert/flaubert_base_cased")
>>> model = TFFlaubertForQuestionAnsweringSimple.from_pretrained("flaubert/flaubert_base_cased")

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

>>> inputs = tokenizer(question, text, return_tensors="tf")
>>> outputs = model(**inputs)

>>> answer_start_index = int(tf.math.argmax(outputs.start_logits, axis=-1)[0])
>>> answer_end_index = int(tf.math.argmax(outputs.end_logits, axis=-1)[0])

>>> predict_answer_tokens = inputs.input_ids[0, answer_start_index : answer_end_index + 1]
```

Copied

```
>>> # target is "nice puppet"
>>> target_start_index = tf.constant([14])
>>> target_end_index = tf.constant([15])

>>> outputs = model(**inputs, start_positions=target_start_index, end_positions=target_end_index)
>>> loss = tf.math.reduce_mean(outputs.loss)
```
