MLM: IndexError: index out of bounds
Hi,I am following this tutorial on masked language modelling using my own dataset:notebooks/language_modeling.ipynb at master · huggingface/notebooks · GitHub, and I am coming across this error:Input:lm_datasets = tokenized_datasets.map(
    group_texts,
    batched=True,
    batch_size=1000,
    num_proc=4,
)Output:Traceback (most recent call last):

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

You should deactivate multiprocessing to have a clearer error message (removenum_proc=4). It looks like an indexing error in your dataset.

Okay, thanks for the help. I will try that and get back to you. Also, could you kindly help me out with this issue I am having? Here:[HELP] How to include emojis in masked language modelling?

Could you clarify what exactly is an “indexing” error? I take it might be an element not in the vocabulary?BTW I am facing the same problem, hence the reason for my query
