### Overview

OpenAI GPT-2 model was proposed in [Language Models are Unsupervised Multitask Learners](https://cdn.openai.com/better-language-models/language_models_are_unsupervised_multitask_learners.pdf) by Alec Radford, Jeffrey Wu, Rewon Child, David Luan, Dario Amodei and Ilya Sutskever from [OpenAI](https://huggingface.co/openai). It’s a causal (unidirectional) transformer pretrained using language modeling on a very large corpus of \~40 GB of text data.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

*GPT-2 is a large transformer-based language model with 1.5 billion parameters, trained on a dataset\[1] of 8 million web pages. GPT-2 is trained with a simple objective: predict the next word, given all of the previous words within some text. The diversity of the dataset causes this simple goal to contain naturally occurring demonstrations of many tasks across diverse domains. GPT-2 is a direct scale-up of GPT, with more than 10X the parameters and trained on more than 10X the amount of data.*

Tips:

* GPT-2 is a model with absolute position embeddings so it’s usually advised to pad the inputs on the right rather than the left.
* GPT-2 was trained with a causal language modeling (CLM) objective and is therefore powerful at predicting the next token in a sequence. Leveraging this feature allows GPT-2 to generate syntactically coherent text as it can be observed in the *run\_generation.py* example script.
* The model can take the *past\_key\_values* (for PyTorch) or *past* (for TF) as input, which is the previously computed key/value attention pairs. Using this (*past\_key\_values* or *past*) value prevents the model from re-computing pre-computed values in the context of text generation. For PyTorch, see *past\_key\_values* argument of the [GPT2Model.forward()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2Model.forward) method, or for TF the *past* argument of the [TFGPT2Model.call()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.TFGPT2Model.call) method for more information on its usage.
* Enabling the *scale\_attn\_by\_inverse\_layer\_idx* and *reorder\_and\_upcast\_attn* flags will apply the training stability improvements from [Mistral](https://github.com/stanford-crfm/mistral/) (for PyTorch only).

[Write With Transformer](https://transformer.huggingface.co/doc/gpt2-large) is a webapp created and hosted by BOINC AI showcasing the generative capabilities of several models. GPT-2 is one of them and is available in five different sizes: small, medium, large, xl and a distilled version of the small checkpoint: *distilgpt-2*.

This model was contributed by [thomwolf](https://huggingface.co/thomwolf). The original code can be found [here](https://openai.com/blog/better-language-models/).

It is used to instantiate a GPT-2 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 GPT-2 [gpt2](https://huggingface.co/gpt2) 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.

Example:

Copied

```
>>> from transformers import GPT2Config, GPT2Model

>>> # Initializing a GPT2 configuration
>>> configuration = GPT2Config()

>>> # Initializing a model (with random weights) from the configuration
>>> model = GPT2Model(configuration)

>>> # Accessing the model configuration
>>> configuration = model.config
```

### GPT2Tokenizer

#### class transformers.GPT2Tokenizer

[\<source>](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v4.34.1/src/transformers/models/gpt2/tokenization_gpt2.py#L101)

( vocab\_filemerges\_fileerrors = 'replace'unk\_token = '<|endoftext|>'bos\_token = '<|endoftext|>'eos\_token = '<|endoftext|>'pad\_token = Noneadd\_prefix\_space = Falseadd\_bos\_token = False\*\*kwargs )

Parameters

* **vocab\_file** (`str`) — Path to the vocabulary file.
* **merges\_file** (`str`) — Path to the merges file.
* **errors** (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `"replace"`) — Paradigm to follow when decoding bytes to UTF-8. See [bytes.decode](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bytes.decode) for more information.
* **unk\_token** (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `<|endoftext|>`) — The unknown token. A token that is not in the vocabulary cannot be converted to an ID and is set to be this token instead.
* **bos\_token** (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `<|endoftext|>`) — The beginning of sequence token.
* **eos\_token** (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `<|endoftext|>`) — The end of sequence token.
* **add\_prefix\_space** (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not to add an initial space to the input. This allows to treat the leading word just as any other word. (GPT2 tokenizer detect beginning of words by the preceding space).

Construct a GPT-2 tokenizer. Based on byte-level Byte-Pair-Encoding.

This tokenizer has been trained to treat spaces like parts of the tokens (a bit like sentencepiece) so a word will

be encoded differently whether it is at the beginning of the sentence (without space) or not:

Copied

```
>>> from transformers import GPT2Tokenizer

>>> tokenizer = GPT2Tokenizer.from_pretrained("gpt2")
>>> tokenizer("Hello world")["input_ids"]
[15496, 995]

>>> tokenizer(" Hello world")["input_ids"]
[18435, 995]
```

You can get around that behavior by passing `add_prefix_space=True` when instantiating this tokenizer or when you call it on some text, but since the model was not pretrained this way, it might yield a decrease in performance.

When used with `is_split_into_words=True`, this tokenizer will add a space before each word (even the first one).

This tokenizer inherits from [PreTrainedTokenizer](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/tokenizer#transformers.PreTrainedTokenizer) which contains most of the main methods. Users should refer to this superclass for more information regarding those methods.

Parameters

* **vocab\_file** (`str`) — Path to the vocabulary file.
* **merges\_file** (`str`) — Path to the merges file.
* **errors** (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `"replace"`) — Paradigm to follow when decoding bytes to UTF-8. See [bytes.decode](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bytes.decode) for more information.
* **unk\_token** (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `<|endoftext|>`) — The unknown token. A token that is not in the vocabulary cannot be converted to an ID and is set to be this token instead.
* **bos\_token** (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `<|endoftext|>`) — The beginning of sequence token.
* **eos\_token** (`str`, *optional*, defaults to `<|endoftext|>`) — The end of sequence token.
* **add\_prefix\_space** (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not to add an initial space to the input. This allows to treat the leading word just as any other word. (GPT2 tokenizer detect beginning of words by the preceding space).
* **trim\_offsets** (`bool`, *optional*, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not the post-processing step should trim offsets to avoid including whitespaces.

Construct a “fast” GPT-2 tokenizer (backed by BOINC AI’s *tokenizers* library). Based on byte-level Byte-Pair-Encoding.

This tokenizer has been trained to treat spaces like parts of the tokens (a bit like sentencepiece) so a word will

be encoded differently whether it is at the beginning of the sentence (without space) or not:

Copied

```
>>> from transformers import GPT2TokenizerFast

>>> tokenizer = GPT2TokenizerFast.from_pretrained("gpt2")
>>> tokenizer("Hello world")["input_ids"]
[15496, 995]

>>> tokenizer(" Hello world")["input_ids"]
[18435, 995]
```

You can get around that behavior by passing `add_prefix_space=True` when instantiating this tokenizer, but since the model was not pretrained this way, it might yield a decrease in performance.

When used with `is_split_into_words=True`, this tokenizer needs to be instantiated with `add_prefix_space=True`.

This tokenizer inherits from [PreTrainedTokenizerFast](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/tokenizer#transformers.PreTrainedTokenizerFast) which contains most of the main methods. Users should refer to this superclass for more information regarding those methods.

### GPT2Model

#### class transformers.GPT2Model

[\<source>](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v4.34.1/src/transformers/models/gpt2/modeling_gpt2.py#L669)

( config )

Parameters

* **config** ([GPT2Config](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2Config)) — 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.

The bare GPT2 Model transformer outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.

This model inherits from [PreTrainedModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel). 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 PyTorch [torch.nn.Module](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module) subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Parameters

* **input\_ids** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, input_ids_length)`) — `input_ids_length` = `sequence_length` if `past_key_values` is `None` else `past_key_values[0][0].shape[-2]` (`sequence_length` of input past key value states). Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

  If `past_key_values` is used, only `input_ids` that do not have their past calculated should be passed as `input_ids`.

  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)
* **past\_key\_values** (`Tuple[Tuple[torch.Tensor]]` of length `config.n_layers`) — Contains precomputed hidden-states (key and values in the attention blocks) as computed by the model (see `past_key_values` output below). Can be used to speed up sequential decoding. The `input_ids` which have their past given to this model should not be passed as `input_ids` as they have already been computed.
* **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**.

( config )

Parameters

* **config** ([GPT2Config](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2Config)) — 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.

The GPT-2 Model transformer with a span classification head on top for extractive question-answering tasks like SQuAD (a linear layer on top of the hidden-states output to compute `span start logits` and `span end logits`).

This model inherits from [PreTrainedModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel). 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 PyTorch [torch.nn.Module](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module) subclass. Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Parameters

* **input\_ids** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, input_ids_length)`) — `input_ids_length` = `sequence_length` if `past_key_values` is `None` else `past_key_values[0][0].shape[-2]` (`sequence_length` of input past key value states). Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

  If `past_key_values` is used, only `input_ids` that do not have their past calculated should be passed as `input_ids`.

  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)
* **past\_key\_values** (`Tuple[Tuple[torch.Tensor]]` of length `config.n_layers`) — Contains precomputed hidden-states (key and values in the attention blocks) as computed by the model (see `past_key_values` output below). Can be used to speed up sequential decoding. The `input_ids` which have their past given to this model should not be passed as `input_ids` as they have already been computed.
* **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**.

  If `past_key_values` is used, `attention_mask` needs to contain the masking strategy that was used for `past_key_values`. In other words, the `attention_mask` always has to have the length: `len(past_key_values) + len(input_ids)`

  [What are attention masks?](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/glossary#attention-mask)
* **token\_type\_ids** (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, input_ids_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)
* **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.

  If `past_key_values` is used, optionally only the last `inputs_embeds` have to be input (see `past_key_values`).
* **use\_cache** (`bool`, *optional*) — If set to `True`, `past_key_values` key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see `past_key_values`).
* **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.
* **start\_positions** (`torch.LongTensor` 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** (`torch.LongTensor` 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\_outputs.QuestionAnsweringModelOutput](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/output#transformers.modeling_outputs.QuestionAnsweringModelOutput) or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

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 ([GPT2Config](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2Config)) 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 [GPT2ForQuestionAnswering](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2ForQuestionAnswering) 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.

This example uses a random model as the real ones are all very big. To get proper results, you should use gpt2 instead of gpt2. If you get out-of-memory when loading that checkpoint, you can try adding `device_map="auto"` in the `from_pretrained` call.

Example:

Copied

```
>>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, GPT2ForQuestionAnswering
>>> import torch

>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("gpt2")
>>> model = GPT2ForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("gpt2")

>>> 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]

>>> # 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

### GPT2ForSequenceClassification

#### class transformers.GPT2ForSequenceClassification

[\<source>](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v4.34.1/src/transformers/models/gpt2/modeling_gpt2.py#L1376)

( config )

Parameters

* **config** ([GPT2Config](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2Config)) — 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.

The GPT2 Model transformer with a sequence classification head on top (linear layer).

[GPT2ForSequenceClassification](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2ForSequenceClassification) uses the last token in order to do the classification, as other causal models (e.g. GPT-1) do.

Since it does classification on the last token, it requires to know the position of the last token. If a `pad_token_id` is defined in the configuration, it finds the last token that is not a padding token in each row. If no `pad_token_id` is defined, it simply takes the last value in each row of the batch. Since it cannot guess the padding tokens when `inputs_embeds` are passed instead of `input_ids`, it does the same (take the last value in each row of the batch).

This model inherits from [PreTrainedModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel). 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.)

* **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.

  If `past_key_values` is used, optionally only the last `inputs_embeds` have to be input (see `past_key_values`).

Indices should be in `[0, ..., config.num_labels - 1]`. If `config.num_labels == 1` a regression loss is computed (Mean-Square loss), If `config.num_labels > 1` a classification loss is computed (Cross-Entropy).

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 ([GPT2Config](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2Config)) and inputs.

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

The [GPT2ForTokenClassification](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2ForTokenClassification) 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, GPT2ForTokenClassification
>>> import torch

>>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("brad1141/gpt2-finetuned-comp2")
>>> model = GPT2ForTokenClassification.from_pretrained("brad1141/gpt2-finetuned-comp2")

>>> inputs = tokenizer(
...     "BOINC AI 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]]

### TFGPT2Model

#### class transformers.TFGPT2Model

[\<source>](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v4.34.1/src/transformers/models/gpt2/modeling_tf_gpt2.py#L675)

( \*args\*\*kwargs )

Parameters

* **config** ([GPT2Config](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2Config)) — 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.

The bare GPT2 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!

Parameters

* **input\_ids** (`Numpy array` or `tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, input_ids_length)`) — `input_ids_length` = `sequence_length` if `past_key_values` is `None` else `past_key_values[0].shape[-2]` (`sequence_length` of input past key value states). Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

  If `past_key_values` is used, only input IDs that do not have their past calculated should be passed as `input_ids`.

  Indices can be obtained using [AutoTokenizer](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoTokenizer).

  * 1 for tokens that are **not masked**,
  * 0 for tokens that are **masked**.
* **past\_key\_values** (`Tuple[Tuple[tf.Tensor]]` of length `config.n_layers`) — contains precomputed key and value hidden states of the attention blocks. Can be used to speed up decoding. If `past` are used, the user can optionally input only the last `decoder_input_ids` (those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape `(batch_size, 1)` instead of all `decoder_input_ids` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`.

The [TFGPT2LMHeadModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.TFGPT2LMHeadModel) 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:

### TFGPT2DoubleHeadsModel

#### class transformers.TFGPT2DoubleHeadsModel

[\<source>](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v4.34.1/src/transformers/models/gpt2/modeling_tf_gpt2.py#L886)

( \*args\*\*kwargs )

Parameters

* **config** ([GPT2Config](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2Config)) — 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.

The GPT2 Model transformer with a language modeling and a multiple-choice classification head on top e.g. for RocStories/SWAG tasks. The two heads are two linear layers. The language modeling head has its weights tied to the input embeddings, the classification head takes as input the input of a specified classification token index in the input sequence).

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!

Parameters

* **input\_ids** (`Numpy array` or `tf.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, input_ids_length)`) — `input_ids_length` = `sequence_length` if `past_key_values` is `None` else `past_key_values[0].shape[-2]` (`sequence_length` of input past key value states). Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary.

  If `past_key_values` is used, only input IDs that do not have their past calculated should be passed as `input_ids`.

  Indices can be obtained using [AutoTokenizer](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/auto#transformers.AutoTokenizer).

  * 0 for tokens that are **masked**.

  If `past_key_values` is used, `attention_mask` needs to contain the masking strategy that was used for `past_key_values`. In other words, the `attention_mask` always has to have the length: `len(past_key_values) + len(input_ids)`

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.

Parameters

* **config** ([GPT2Config](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2Config)) — Model configuration class with all the parameters of the model.

The GPT2 Model transformer with a sequence classification head on top (linear layer).

[TFGPT2ForSequenceClassification](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.TFGPT2ForSequenceClassification) uses the last token in order to do the classification, as other causal models (e.g. GPT-1) do.

Since it does classification on the last token, it requires to know the position of the last token. If a `pad_token_id` is defined in the configuration, it finds the last token that is not a padding token in each row. If no `pad_token_id` is defined, it simply takes the last value in each row of the batch. Since it cannot guess the padding tokens when `inputs_embeds` are passed instead of `input_ids`, it does the same (take the last value in each row of the batch).

This model inherits from [TFPreTrainedModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/model#transformers.TFPreTrainedModel).

### TFGPT2Tokenizer

#### class transformers.TFGPT2Tokenizer

[\<source>](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v4.34.1/src/transformers/models/gpt2/tokenization_gpt2_tf.py#L11)

( \*args\*\*kwargs )

Parameters

* **vocab** (Dict\[str, int]) — Vocabulary dict for Byte Pair Tokenizer
* **merges** (List\[str]) — Merges list for Byte Pair Tokenizer

This is an in-graph tokenizer for GPT2. It should be initialized similarly to other tokenizers, using the `from_pretrained()` method. It can also be initialized with the `from_tokenizer()` method, which imports settings from an existing standard tokenizer object.

In-graph tokenizers, unlike other BOINC AI tokenizers, are actually Keras layers and are designed to be run when the model is called, rather than during preprocessing. As a result, they have somewhat more limited options than standard tokenizer classes. They are most useful when you want to create an end-to-end model that goes straight from `tf.string` inputs to outputs.

### FlaxGPT2Model

#### class transformers.FlaxGPT2Model

[\<source>](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/v4.34.1/src/transformers/models/gpt2/modeling_flax_gpt2.py#L665)

( config: GPT2Configinput\_shape: typing.Tuple = (1, 1)seed: int = 0dtype: dtype = \<class 'jax.numpy.float32'>\_do\_init: bool = True\*\*kwargs )

Parameters

* **config** ([GPT2Config](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/model_doc/gpt2#transformers.GPT2Config)) — 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.FlaxPreTrainedModel.from_pretrained) method to load the model weights.
* **dtype** (`jax.numpy.dtype`, *optional*, defaults to `jax.numpy.float32`) — The data type of the computation. Can be one of `jax.numpy.float32`, `jax.numpy.float16` (on GPUs) and `jax.numpy.bfloat16` (on TPUs).

  This can be used to enable mixed-precision training or half-precision inference on GPUs or TPUs. If specified all the computation will be performed with the given `dtype`.

  **Note that this only specifies the dtype of the computation and does not influence the dtype of model parameters.**

  If you wish to change the dtype of the model parameters, see [to\_fp16()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/model#transformers.FlaxPreTrainedModel.to_fp16) and [to\_bf16()](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/model#transformers.FlaxPreTrainedModel.to_bf16).

The bare GPT2 Model transformer outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.

This model inherits from [FlaxPreTrainedModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.34.1/en/main_classes/model#transformers.FlaxPreTrainedModel). 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 Flax Linen [flax.nn.Module](https://flax.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_autosummary/flax.nn.module.html) subclass. Use it as a regular Flax Module and refer to the Flax documentation for all matter related to general usage and behavior.

Finally, this model supports inherent JAX features such as:

* [Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation](https://jax.readthedocs.io/en/latest/jax.html#just-in-time-compilation-jit)
* [Automatic Differentiation](https://jax.readthedocs.io/en/latest/jax.html#automatic-differentiation)
* [Vectorization](https://jax.readthedocs.io/en/latest/jax.html#vectorization-vmap)
* [Parallelization](https://jax.readthedocs.io/en/latest/jax.html#parallelization-pmap)
