# T5 base fine-tuned on MP-DocVQA

This is [pretrained](https://huggingface.co/t5-base) T5 base fine-tuned on Multipage DocVQA (MP-DocVQA) dataset.


This model was used as a baseline in [Hierarchical multimodal transformers for Multi-Page DocVQA](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2212.05935.pdf).
- Results on the MP-DocVQA dataset are reported in Table 2.
- Training hyperparameters can be found in Table 8 of Appendix D.


## How to use

Here is how to use this model to get the features of a given text in PyTorch:

```python
import torch
from transformers import T5Tokenizer, T5ForConditionalGeneration

tokenizer = LongformerTokenizerFast.from_pretrained("rubentito/t5-base-mpdocvqa")
model = LongformerForQuestionAnswering.from_pretrained("rubentito/t5-base-mpdocvqa")

context = "Huggingface has democratized NLP. Huge thanks to Huggingface for this."
question = "What has Huggingface done?"
input_text = "question: {:s}  context: {:s}".format(question, context)

encoding = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt")
output = self.model.generate(**encoding)
answer = tokenizer.decode(output['sequences'], skip_special_tokens=True)
```
