Introduction

The CHINESE_PRETRAIN_MRC_ROBERTA_WWM_EXT_LARGE model is a Chinese question answering model based on a pretrained roberta_wwm_ext_large architecture. It has been optimized using extensive Chinese MRC (Machine Reading Comprehension) data and is suitable for tasks like reading comprehension and classification. The model has demonstrated significant performance improvements, achieving top rankings in competitions such as DuReader-2021.

Architecture

The model is a variant of the roberta_wwm_ext_large, which is part of the BERT family of models. It employs Whole Word Masking (WWM) during pretraining, a technique that masks all of the tokens corresponding to a complete word, which can enhance the model's understanding of the Chinese language.

Training

The model was trained on large-scale Chinese MRC datasets. The training process emphasized improving F1-score and accuracy, particularly in competitive benchmarks like DuReader-2021 and TencentMedical, where the model has shown notable performance gains over other variants such as macbert-large.

Guide: Running Locally
