# Domain-adapted mBERT for French Tax Practice

This is a [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) model: It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 768 dimensional dense vector space and can be used for tasks like clustering or semantic search.

Pretrained transformers model on the top 102 languages with the largest Wikipedia using a masked language modeling (MLM) objective, fitted using Transformer-based Sequential Denoising Auto-Encoder for unsupervised sentence embedding learning with one objective : french tax domain adaptation.

This way, the model learns an inner representation of the french legal language in the training set that can then be used to extract features useful for downstream tasks: if you have a dataset of labeled sentences for instance, you can train a standard classifier using the features produced by the model as inputs.

## Usage (Sentence-Transformers)

Using this model becomes easy when you have [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) installed:

```
pip install -U sentence-transformers
```

Then you can use the model like this:

```python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
sentences = ["This is an example sentence", "Each sentence is converted"]

model = SentenceTransformer("louisbrulenaudet/tsdae-lemone-mbert-tax")
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings)
```

## Usage (HuggingFace Transformers)
Without [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net), you can use the model like this: First, you pass your input through the transformer model, then you have to apply the right pooling-operation on-top of the contextualized word embeddings.

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
import torch


def cls_pooling(model_output, attention_mask):
    return model_output[0][:,0]


# Sentences we want sentence embeddings for
sentences = ['This is an example sentence', 'Each sentence is converted']

# Load model from HuggingFace Hub
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("louisbrulenaudet/tsdae-lemone-mbert-tax")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("louisbrulenaudet/tsdae-lemone-mbert-tax")

# Tokenize sentences
encoded_input = tokenizer(sentences, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors="pt")

# Compute token embeddings
with torch.no_grad():
    model_output = model(**encoded_input)

# Perform pooling. In this case, cls pooling.
sentence_embeddings = cls_pooling(model_output, encoded_input["attention_mask"])

print("Sentence embeddings:")
print(sentence_embeddings)
```
