Getting KeyErrors when training Transformer
I am generally following this tutorial (Fine-tune a pretrained modelto implement fine-tuning on a pretrained transformer. The main difference is I am using my own custom dataset that is being sourced from a JSON file that has a document’s text and the label it should belong to. To be able to do this I needed to create my own class which is based off of the Dataset class from pytorch. This is what that class looks like:class PDFsDataset(torch.utils.data.Dataset):
    def __init__(self, encodings, labels):
        self.encodings = encodings
        self.labels = labels
    def __getitem__(self, idx):
        item = {}
        for key in self.encodings[idx]:
            item[key] = torch.tensor(self.encodings[idx][key]
        item['labels'] = torch.tensor(self.labels[idx])
        return item
    def __len__(self):
        return len(self.labels)I am getting an error when training the transformer that saysTraceback (most recent call last):

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

Sample Input is a JSON File where elements would look like this: { “text_clean”: [ “article with a few hundred words”, another article with a lot of words", “yet another article” ], “most_similar_label”:[ “Quantum” “Artificial intelligence” “Materials” ] }
