An example of how to incorporate the transfomers library from HuggingFace with fastai
In this tutorial, we will see how we can use the fastai library to fine-tune a pretrained transformer model from the transformers library by HuggingFace. We will use the mid-level API to gather the data. Even if this tutorial is self contained, it might help to check the imagenette tutorial to have a second look on the mid-level API (with a gentle introduction using the higher level APIs) in computer vision.
Importing a transformers pretrained model
First things first, we will need to install the transformers library. If you haven’t done it yet, install the library:
!pip install -Uq transformersThen let’s import what will need: we will fine-tune the GPT2 pretrained model and fine-tune on wikitext-2 here. For this, we need the GPT2LMHeadModel (since we want a language model) and the GPT2Tokenizer to prepare the data.
We can use several versions of this GPT2 model, look at the transformers documentation for more details. Here we will use the basic version (that already takes a lot of space in memory!) You can change the model used by changing the content of pretrained_weights (if it’s not a GPT2 model, you’ll need to change the classes used for the model and the tokenizer of course).
pretrained_weights = 'gpt2'
tokenizer = GPT2TokenizerFast.from_pretrained(pretrained_weights)
model = GPT2LMHeadModel.from_pretrained(pretrained_weights)Before we move on to the fine-tuning part, let’s have a look at this tokenizer and this model. The tokenizers in HuggingFace usually do the tokenization and the numericalization in one step (we ignore the padding warning for now):
ids = tokenizer.encode('This is an example of text, and')
ids[1212, 318, 281, 1672, 286, 2420, 11, 290]Like fastai Transforms, the tokenizer has a decode method to give you back a text from ids:
tokenizer.decode(ids)'This is an example of text, and'The model can be used to generate predictions (it is pretrained). It has a generate method that expects a batch of prompt, so we feed it our ids and add one batch dimension (there is a padding warning we can ignore as well):
import torcht = torch.LongTensor(ids)[None]
preds = model.generate(t)Setting `pad_token_id` to `eos_token_id`:50256 for open-end generation.The predictions, by default, are of length 20:
preds.shape,preds[0](torch.Size([1, 20]),
tensor([1212, 318, 281, 1672, 286, 2420, 11, 290, 340, 338, 407, 257,
922, 530, 13, 198, 198, 464, 717, 1517]))We can use the decode method (that prefers a numpy array to a tensor):
tokenizer.decode(preds[0].numpy())"This is an example of text, and it's not a good one.\n\nThe first thing"Bridging the gap with fastai
Now let’s see how we can use fastai to fine-tune this model on wikitext-2, using all the training utilities (learning rate finder, 1cycle policy etc…). First, we import all the text utilities:
from fastai.text.all import *Preparing the data
Then we download the dataset (if not present), it comes as two csv files:
path = untar_data(URLs.WIKITEXT_TINY)
path.ls()(#2) [Path('/home/jhoward/.fastai/data/wikitext-2/test.csv'),Path('/home/jhoward/.fastai/data/wikitext-2/train.csv')]Let’s have a look at what those csv files look like:
df_train = pd.read_csv(path/'train.csv', header=None)
df_valid = pd.read_csv(path/'test.csv', header=None)
df_train.head()| 0 | |

We gather all texts in one numpy array (since it will be easier to use this way with fastai):
all_texts = np.concatenate([df_train[0].values, df_valid[0].values])To process this data to train a model, we need to build a Transform that will be applied lazily. In this case we could do the pre-processing once and for all and only use the transform for decoding (we will see how just after), but the fast tokenizer from HuggingFace is, as its name indicates, fast, so it doesn’t really impact performance to do it this way.
In a fastai Transform you can define:
- an
encodesmethod that is applied when you call the transform (a bit like theforwardmethod in ann.Module) - a
decodesmethod that is applied when you call thedecodemethod of the transform, if you need to decode anything for showing purposes (like converting ids to a text here) - a
setupsmethod that sets some inner state of theTransform(not needed here so we skip it)
class TransformersTokenizer(Transform):
def __init__(self, tokenizer): self.tokenizer = tokenizer
def encodes(self, x):
toks = self.tokenizer.tokenize(x)
return tensor(self.tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids(toks))
def decodes(self, x): return TitledStr(self.tokenizer.decode(x.cpu().numpy()))Two comments on the code above:
- in
encodeswe don’t use thetokenizer.encodemethod since it does some additional preprocessing for the model after tokenizing and numericalizing (the part throwing a warning before). Here we don’t need any post-processing so it’s fine to skip it. - in
decodeswe return aTitledStrobject and not just a plain string. That’s a fastai class that adds ashowmethod to the string, which will allow us to use all the fastai show methods.
You can then group your data with this Transform using a TfmdLists. It has an s in its name because it contains the training and validation set. We indicate the indices of the training set and the validation set with splits (here all the first indices until len(df_train) and then all the remaining indices):
splits = [range_of(df_train), list(range(len(df_train), len(all_texts)))]
tls = TfmdLists(all_texts, TransformersTokenizer(tokenizer), splits=splits, dl_type=LMDataLoader)Token indices sequence length is longer than the specified maximum sequence length for this model (4576 > 1024). Running this sequence through the model will result in indexing errorsWe specify dl_type=LMDataLoader for when we will convert this TfmdLists to DataLoaders: we will use an LMDataLoader since we have a language modeling problem, not the usual fastai TfmdDL.
In a TfmdLists you can access the elements of the training or validation set quite easily:
tls.train[0],tls.valid[0](tensor([220, 198, 796, ..., 198, 220, 198]),
tensor([220, 198, 796, ..., 198, 220, 198]))They look the same but only because they begin and end the same way. We can see the shapes are different:
tls.tfms(tls.train.items[0]).shape, tls.tfms(tls.valid.items[0]).shape(torch.Size([4576]), torch.Size([1485]))And we can have a look at both decodes using show_at:

Their 17th @-@ place finish in 2012 – 13 meant it was their second consecutive season in League Two. The season ran from 1 July 2013 to 30 June 2014.
Nigel Worthington, starting his first full season as York manager, made eight permanent summer signings. By the turn of the year York were only above the relegation zone on goal difference, before a 17 @-@ match unbeaten run saw the team finish in seventh @-@ place in the 24 @-@ team 2013 – 14 Football League Two. This meant York qualified for the play @-@ offs, and they were eliminated in the semi @-@ final by Fleetwood Town. York were knocked out of the 2013 – 14 FA Cup, Football League Cup and Football League Trophy in their opening round matches.
35 players made at least one appearance in nationally organised first @-@ team competition, and there were 12 different <unk>. Defender Ben Davies missed only five of the fifty @-@ two competitive matches played over the season. Wes Fletcher finished as leading scorer with 13 goals, of which 10 came in league competition and three came in the FA Cup. The winner of the <unk> of the Year award, voted for by the club's supporters, was <unk> Oyebanjo.

York's defensive record was the third best in League Two with 41 goals conceded, bettered only by Southend ( 39 ) and Chesterfield ( 40 ). Davies made the highest number of appearances over the season, appearing in 47 of York's 52 matches. Fletcher was York's top scorer in the league and in all competitions, with 10 league goals and 13 in total. He was the only player to reach double figures, and was followed by Jarvis with nine goals.
After the season ended York released Tom Allan, Andrew, Dickinson, McDonald, Puri and Reed, while McGurk retired from professional football. Bowman and Oyebanjo left to sign for Torquay and Crawley Town respectively while Coulson signed a new contract with the club.

= Tropical Storm <unk> ( 2008 ) =
Tropical Storm <unk> was the tenth tropical storm of the 2008 Atlantic hurricane season. <unk> developed out of a strong tropical wave which moved off the African coast on August 31. The wave quickly became organized and was declared Tropical Depression Ten while located 170 mi ( 270 km ) to the south @-@ southeast of the Cape Verde Islands on September 2. The depression was quickly upgraded to Tropical Storm <unk> around noon the same day. Over the next several days, <unk> moved in a general west @-@ northwest direction and reached its peak intensity early on September 3. Strong wind shear, some due to the outflow of Hurricane Ike, and dry air caused the storm to weaken. On September 6, the combination of wind shear, dry air, and cooling waters caused <unk> to weaken into a tropical depression. <unk> deteriorated into a remnant low shortly after as convection continued to dissipate around the storm. The low ultimately dissipated while located 520 mi ( 835 km ) east of <unk> on September 10. However, the remnant moisture led to minor flooding on the island of St. Croix.
= = Meteorological history = =
Tropical Storm <unk> formed as a tropical wave that emerged off the west coast of Africa near the end of August 2008. It tracked south of Cape Verde and slowly developed, and on September 2 the disturbance became Tropical Depression Ten while located south @-@ southeast of the Cape Verde islands. As the depression became more organized, an eye @-@ like feature developed in the upper levels of the system. The depression was upgraded to Tropical Storm <unk> six hours after forming. <unk> was located in an area which was supportive for rapid intensification but was not forecast to intensify quickly.
<unk> continued to intensify throughout the afternoon as the storm became more symmetrical. However, due to the location of the storm, there was a lack of accurate wind speed readings, and the National Hurricane Center was uncertain of its actual intensity. Despite the lack of wind shear around the storm, the center became slightly exposed and ceased further intensification. The storm was also heading into an area where shear was <unk> to significantly increase due to an upper @-@ level trough diving southward. Despite convection being partially removed from the center of <unk>, the storm intensified slightly in the early morning hours on September 3 as thunderstorm activity to the south of the center became more organized. The intensification was forecast to be short in duration as the trough to the north was deepening, causing the wind shear to the west to become stronger.
<unk> reached its peak intensity of 65 mph ( 100 km / h ) around 8 a.m. ( <unk> ) as it continued to become more organized. However, there were indications that it had already begun to weaken. <unk> towards the north was becoming restricted and arc clouds began emanating from the storm, a sign that dry air was entering the system. During the afternoon hours, the structure of <unk> began to rapidly deteriorate as strong wind shear and dry air took their toll. By the late night, the center was almost completely exposed and only a band of convection persisted near the center.
Despite continuing effects from the strong wind shear, a large, deep burst of convection formed in the northern <unk> of <unk>. The center was found to have shifted towards the new convection leading to an increase in intensity. The forecast showed a slight decrease in wind shear as <unk> continued westward and no change in intensity over the 5 @-@ day forecast was predicted. However, the convection decreased once more and the low became completely exposed by the late morning hours and <unk> weakened again. By the afternoon, the center of <unk> was only a <unk> of clouds, devoid of convection. During the overnight hours on September 4 into the morning of September 5, convection associated with <unk> began to <unk> somewhat, mostly to the north of the circulation, due to the strong <unk> wind shear. By mid @-@ morning, <unk> re @-@ intensified slightly due to the redevelopment of some convection. However, the redevelopment was short lived and wind shear again took its toll on <unk> by late morning. The convection around the system became <unk> from the center and <unk> weakened slightly.
The weakening trend continued through the afternoon as the storm was being affected by strong <unk> shear. <unk> became almost fully devoid of any convection by mid @-@ afternoon and the storm weakened to 40 mph ( 65 km / h ), barely holding on to tropical storm status. <unk> regained a small amount of convection in the late night hours, but not enough to still be classified a tropical storm. Due to the lack of convection, <unk> was downgraded to a Tropical Depression at <unk> ( <unk> ) with winds of 35 mph ( 55 km / h ). Since there was no convection around the system, it would have normally been classified a remnant low but, due to the possibility of the storm <unk> over the next several days, it was considered a tropical depression. The next morning, <unk> was downgraded to a remnant low as strong wind shear and dry air caused the demise of the storm. No redevelopment was expected with <unk> as it began to move over colder waters and remain under strong wind shear until it dissipated.
However, the remnant low associated with <unk> began to show signs of redevelopment during the afternoon on September 7. <unk> around the system increased significantly and the low was no longer exposed. On September 8, wind shear took over the system again. <unk> around the remnant low was torn away and the low was exposed once more. The National Hurricane Center did not state the chance of regeneration once the low became exposed. Finally, on September 9, wind shear and dry air led to the remnants of <unk> deteriorating into an open wave. However, on September 10, the remnants of <unk> redeveloped and global models picked up on the reformed system. Once more, the chance of regeneration was possible as the remnants of <unk> headed towards the Bahamas. However, on September 14, dry air and wind shear caused the remnants to dissipate entirely.
= = Impact = =
As <unk> passed to the south of the Cape Verde islands on September 2, outer rain bands produced minor rainfall, totaling around 0 @.@ 55 inches ( 14 mm ). There were no reports of damage or flooding from the rain and overall effects were minor.
Several days after the low dissipated, the remnant moisture from <unk> brought showers and thunderstorms to St. Croix where up to 1 in ( 25 @.@ 4 mm ) of rain fell. The heavy rains led to minor street flooding and some urban flooding. No known damage was caused by the flood.
The fastai library expects the data to be assembled in a DataLoaders object (something that has a training and validation dataloader). We can get one by using the dataloaders method. We just have to specify a batch size and a sequence length. We’ll train with sequences of size 256 (GPT2 used sequence length 1024, but not everyone has enough GPU RAM for that):
bs,sl = 4,256
dls = tls.dataloaders(bs=bs, seq_len=sl)Note that you may have to reduce the batch size depending on your GPU RAM.
In fastai, as soon as we have a DataLoaders, we can use show_batch to have a look at the data (here texts for inputs, and the same text shifted by one token to the right for validation):
dls.show_batch(max_n=2)| text | text_ | |

Another way to gather the data is to preprocess the texts once and for all and only use the transform to decode the tensors to texts:
def tokenize(text):
toks = tokenizer.tokenize(text)
return tensor(tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids(toks))
tokenized = [tokenize(t) for t in progress_bar(all_texts)]
100.00% [662/662 00:12<00:00]
Now we change the previous Tokenizer like this:
class TransformersTokenizer(Transform):
def __init__(self, tokenizer): self.tokenizer = tokenizer
def encodes(self, x):
return x if isinstance(x, Tensor) else tokenize(x)
def decodes(self, x): return TitledStr(self.tokenizer.decode(x.cpu().numpy()))In the encodes method, we still account for the case where we get something that’s not already tokenized, just in case we were to build a dataset with new texts using this transform.
tls = TfmdLists(tokenized, TransformersTokenizer(tokenizer), splits=splits, dl_type=LMDataLoader)
dls = tls.dataloaders(bs=bs, seq_len=sl)And we can check it still works properly for showing purposes:
dls.show_batch(max_n=2)| text | text_ | |

Fine-tuning the model
The HuggingFace model will return a tuple in outputs, with the actual predictions and some additional activations (should we want to use them in some regularization scheme). To work inside the fastai training loop, we will need to drop those using a Callback: we use those to alter the behavior of the training loop.
Here we need to write the event after_pred and replace self.learn.pred (which contains the predictions that will be passed to the loss function) by just its first element. In callbacks, there is a shortcut that lets you access any of the underlying Learner attributes so we can write self.pred[0] instead of self.learn.pred[0]. That shortcut only works for read access, not write, so we have to write self.learn.pred on the right side (otherwise we would set a pred attribute in the Callback).
class DropOutput(Callback):
def after_pred(self): self.learn.pred = self.pred[0]Of course we could make this a bit more complex and add some penalty to the loss using the other part of the tuple of predictions, like the RNNRegularizer.
Now, we are ready to create our Learner, which is a fastai object grouping data, model and loss function and handles model training or inference. Since we are in a language model setting, we pass perplexity as a metric, and we need to use the callback we just defined. Lastly, we use mixed precision to save every bit of memory we can (and if you have a modern GPU, it will also make training faster):
learn = Learner(dls, model, loss_func=CrossEntropyLossFlat(), cbs=[DropOutput], metrics=Perplexity()).to_fp16()We can check how good the model is without any fine-tuning step (spoiler alert, it’s pretty good!)
learn.validate()(#2) [3.2537169456481934,25.88637924194336]This lists the validation loss and metrics (so 26.6 as perplexity is kind of amazing).
Now that we have a Learner we can use all the fastai training loop capabilities: learning rate finder, training with 1cycle etc…
learn.lr_find()SuggestedLRs(lr_min=0.017378008365631102, lr_steep=0.14454397559165955)
The learning rate finder curve suggests picking something between 1e-4 and 1e-3.
learn.fit_one_cycle(1, 1e-4)| epoch | train_loss | valid_loss | perplexity | time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 2.986238 | 2.721945 | 15.209874 | 04:56 |
Now with just one epoch of fine-tuning and not much regularization, our model did not really improve since it was already amazing. To have a look at some generated texts, let’s take a prompt that looks like a wikipedia article:
