Pipelines

パイプラインは、推論にモデルを使うための簡単で優れた方法である。パイプラインは、複雑なコードのほとんどを抽象化したオブジェクトです。 パイプラインは、ライブラリから複雑なコードのほとんどを抽象化したオブジェクトで、名前付き固有表現認識、マスク言語モデリング、感情分析、特徴抽出、質問応答などのタスクに特化したシンプルなAPIを提供します。 Recognition、Masked Language Modeling、Sentiment Analysis、Feature Extraction、Question Answeringなどのタスクに特化したシンプルなAPIを提供します。以下を参照のこと。 タスク概要を参照してください。

パイプラインの抽象化には2つのカテゴリーがある：

- pipeline() は、他のすべてのパイプラインをカプセル化する最も強力なオブジェクトです。
- タスク固有のパイプラインは、オーディオ、コンピューター ビジョン、自然言語処理、および マルチモーダル タスクで使用できます。

##
The pipeline abstraction

パイプライン 抽象化は、他のすべての利用可能なパイプラインのラッパーです。他のものと同様にインスタンス化されます パイプラインですが、さらなる生活の質を提供できます。

1 つの項目に対する単純な呼び出し:

    >>> pipe = pipeline("text-classification")
    >>> pipe("This restaurant is awesome")
    [{'label': 'POSITIVE', 'score': 0.9998743534088135}]

ハブ の特定のモデルを使用したい場合は、モデルがオンになっている場合はタスクを無視できます。 ハブはすでにそれを定義しています。

    >>> pipe = pipeline(model="FacebookAI/roberta-large-mnli")
    >>> pipe("This restaurant is awesome")
    [{'label': 'NEUTRAL', 'score': 0.7313136458396912}]

多くの項目に対してパイプラインを呼び出すには、list を使用してパイプラインを呼び出すことができます。

    >>> pipe = pipeline("text-classification")
    >>> pipe(["This restaurant is awesome", "This restaurant is awful"])
    [{'label': 'POSITIVE', 'score': 0.9998743534088135},
     {'label': 'NEGATIVE', 'score': 0.9996669292449951}]

完全なデータセットを反復するには、`Dataset`を直接使用することをお勧めします。これは、割り当てる必要がないことを意味します データセット全体を一度に処理することも、自分でバッチ処理を行う必要もありません。これはカスタムループと同じくらい速く動作するはずです。 GPU。それが問題でない場合は、ためらわずに問題を作成してください。

    import datasets
    from transformers import pipeline
    from transformers.pipelines.pt_utils import KeyDataset
    from tqdm.auto import tqdm

    pipe = pipeline("automatic-speech-recognition", model="facebook/wav2vec2-base-960h", device=0)
    dataset = datasets.load_dataset("superb", name="asr", split="test")

    # KeyDataset (only *pt*) will simply return the item in the dict returned by the dataset item
    # as we're not interested in the *target* part of the dataset. For sentence pair use KeyPairDataset
    for out in tqdm(pipe(KeyDataset(dataset, "file"))):
        print(out)
        # {"text": "NUMBER TEN FRESH NELLY IS WAITING ON YOU GOOD NIGHT HUSBAND"}
        # {"text": ....}
        # ....

使いやすくするために、ジェネレーターを使用することもできます。

    from transformers import pipeline

    pipe = pipeline("text-classification")

    def data():
        while True:
            # This could come from a dataset, a database, a queue or HTTP request
            # in a server
            # Caveat: because this is iterative, you cannot use `num_workers > 1` variable
            # to use multiple threads to preprocess data. You can still have 1 thread that
            # does the preprocessing while the main runs the big inference
            yield "This is a test"

    for out in pipe(data()):
        print(out)
        # {"text": "NUMBER TEN FRESH NELLY IS WAITING ON YOU GOOD NIGHT HUSBAND"}
        # {"text": ....}

- model (`str` or PreTrainedModel or TFPreTrainedModel, optional) — The model that will be used by the pipeline to make predictions. This can be a model identifier or an actual instance of a pretrained model inheriting from PreTrainedModel (for PyTorch) or TFPreTrainedModel (for TensorFlow).

  If not provided, the default for the `task` will be loaded.

- config (`str` or PretrainedConfig, optional) — The configuration that will be used by the pipeline to instantiate the model. This can be a model identifier or an actual pretrained model configuration inheriting from PretrainedConfig.

  If not provided, the default configuration file for the requested model will be used. That means that if `model` is given, its default configuration will be used. However, if `model` is not supplied, this `task`’s default model’s config is used instead.

- tokenizer (`str` or PreTrainedTokenizer, optional) — The tokenizer that will be used by the pipeline to encode data for the model. This can be a model identifier or an actual pretrained tokenizer inheriting from PreTrainedTokenizer.

  If not provided, the default tokenizer for the given `model` will be loaded (if it is a string). If `model` is not specified or not a string, then the default tokenizer for `config` is loaded (if it is a string). However, if `config` is also not given or not a string, then the default tokenizer for the given `task` will be loaded.

- feature_extractor (`str` or `PreTrainedFeatureExtractor`, optional) — The feature extractor that will be used by the pipeline to encode data for the model. This can be a model identifier or an actual pretrained feature extractor inheriting from `PreTrainedFeatureExtractor`.

  Feature extractors are used for non-NLP models, such as Speech or Vision models as well as multi-modal models. Multi-modal models will also require a tokenizer to be passed.

  If not provided, the default feature extractor for the given `model` will be loaded (if it is a string). If `model` is not specified or not a string, then the default feature extractor for `config` is loaded (if it is a string). However, if `config` is also not given or not a string, then the default feature extractor for the given `task` will be loaded.

- framework (`str`, optional) — The framework to use, either `"pt"` for PyTorch or `"tf"` for TensorFlow. The specified framework must be installed.

  If no framework is specified, will default to the one currently installed. If no framework is specified and both frameworks are installed, will default to the framework of the `model`, or to PyTorch if no model is provided.

- revision (`str`, optional, defaults to `"main"`) — When passing a task name or a string model identifier: The specific model version to use. It can be a branch name, a tag name, or a commit id, since we use a git-based system for storing models and other artifacts on huggingface.co, so `revision` can be any identifier allowed by git.
- use_fast (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not to use a Fast tokenizer if possible (a PreTrainedTokenizerFast).
- use_auth_token (`str` or bool, optional) — The token to use as HTTP bearer authorization for remote files. If `True`, will use the token generated when running `huggingface-cli login` (stored in `~/.huggingface`).
- device (`int` or `str` or `torch.device`) — Defines the device (e.g., `"cpu"`, `"cuda:1"`, `"mps"`, or a GPU ordinal rank like `1`) on which this pipeline will be allocated.
- device_map (`str` or `Dict[str, Union[int, str, torch.device]`, optional) — Sent directly as `model_kwargs` (just a simpler shortcut). When `accelerate` library is present, set `device_map="auto"` to compute the most optimized `device_map` automatically (see here for more information).

  Do not use `device_map` AND `device` at the same time as they will conflict

- torch_dtype (`str` or `torch.dtype`, optional) — Sent directly as `model_kwargs` (just a simpler shortcut) to use the available precision for this model (`torch.float16`, `torch.bfloat16`, … or `"auto"`).
- trust_remote_code (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not to allow for custom code defined on the Hub in their own modeling, configuration, tokenization or even pipeline files. This option should only be set to `True` for repositories you trust and in which you have read the code, as it will execute code present on the Hub on your local machine.
- model_kwargs (`Dict[str, Any]`, optional) — Additional dictionary of keyword arguments passed along to the model’s `from_pretrained(..., **model_kwargs)` function.
- kwargs (`Dict[str, Any]`, optional) — Additional keyword arguments passed along to the specific pipeline init (see the documentation for the corresponding pipeline class for possible values).

Returns

Pipeline

A suitable pipeline for the task.

Utility factory method to build a Pipeline.

Pipelines are made of:

- A tokenizer in charge of mapping raw textual input to token.
- A model to make predictions from the inputs.
- Some (optional) post processing for enhancing model’s output.

Examples:

    >>> from transformers import pipeline, AutoModelForTokenClassification, AutoTokenizer

    >>> # Sentiment analysis pipeline
    >>> analyzer = pipeline("sentiment-analysis")

    >>> # Question answering pipeline, specifying the checkpoint identifier
    >>> oracle = pipeline(
    ...     "question-answering", model="distilbert/distilbert-base-cased-distilled-squad", tokenizer="google-bert/bert-base-cased"
    ... )

    >>> # Named entity recognition pipeline, passing in a specific model and tokenizer
    >>> model = AutoModelForTokenClassification.from_pretrained("dbmdz/bert-large-cased-finetuned-conll03-english")
    >>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google-bert/bert-base-cased")
    >>> recognizer = pipeline("ner", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)

##
Pipeline batching

すべてのパイプラインでバッチ処理を使用できます。これはうまくいきます パイプラインがストリーミング機能を使用するときは常に (つまり、リスト、`dataset`、または `generator`を渡すとき)。

    from transformers import pipeline
    from transformers.pipelines.pt_utils import KeyDataset
    import datasets

    dataset = datasets.load_dataset("imdb", name="plain_text", split="unsupervised")
    pipe = pipeline("text-classification", device=0)
    for out in pipe(KeyDataset(dataset, "text"), batch_size=8, truncation="only_first"):
        print(out)
        # [{'label': 'POSITIVE', 'score': 0.9998743534088135}]
        # Exactly the same output as before, but the content are passed
        # as batches to the model

ただし、これによってパフォーマンスが自動的に向上するわけではありません。状況に応じて、10 倍の高速化または 5 倍の低速化のいずれかになります。 ハードウェア、データ、使用されている実際のモデルについて。

主に高速化である例:

    from transformers import pipeline
    from torch.utils.data import Dataset
    from tqdm.auto import tqdm

    pipe = pipeline("text-classification", device=0)

    class MyDataset(Dataset):
        def __len__(self):
            return 5000

        def __getitem__(self, i):
            return "This is a test"

    dataset = MyDataset()

    for batch_size in [1, 8, 64, 256]:
        print("-" * 30)
        print(f"Streaming batch_size={batch_size}")
        for out in tqdm(pipe(dataset, batch_size=batch_size), total=len(dataset)):
            pass

この問題に対する適切な (一般的な) 解決策はなく、使用できる距離はユースケースによって異なる場合があります。のルール 親指：

ユーザーにとっての経験則は次のとおりです。

- ハードウェアを使用して、負荷に対するパフォーマンスを測定します。測って、測って、測り続ける。実数というのは、 進むべき唯一の方法。

- レイテンシに制約がある場合 (実際の製品が推論を実行している場合)、バッチ処理を行わないでください。

- CPU を使用している場合は、バッチ処理を行わないでください。

- GPU でスループットを使用している場合 (大量の静的データでモデルを実行したい場合)、次のようにします。

  - sequence_length (「自然な」データ) のサイズについてまったくわからない場合は、デフォルトではバッチ処理や測定を行わず、 暫定的に追加してみます。失敗した場合に回復するために OOM チェックを追加します (失敗した場合は、ある時点で回復します)。 sequence_length を制御します。)
  - sequence_length が非常に規則的である場合、バッチ処理は非常に興味深いものとなる可能性が高く、測定してプッシュしてください。 OOM が発生するまで続けます。
  - GPU が大きいほど、バッチ処理がより興味深いものになる可能性が高くなります。

- バッチ処理を有効にしたらすぐに、OOM を適切に処理できることを確認してください。

##
Pipeline chunk batching

`zero-shot-classification` と `question-answering` は、単一の入力で結果が得られる可能性があるという意味で、少し特殊です。 モデルの複数の前方パス。通常の状況では、これにより `batch_size` 引数に関する問題が発生します。

この問題を回避するために、これらのパイプラインはどちらも少し特殊になっており、代わりに `ChunkPipeline` になっています。 通常の `Pipeline`。要するに：

    preprocessed = pipe.preprocess(inputs)
    model_outputs = pipe.forward(preprocessed)
    outputs = pipe.postprocess(model_outputs)

今は次のようになります:

    all_model_outputs = []
    for preprocessed in pipe.preprocess(inputs):
        model_outputs = pipe.forward(preprocessed)
        all_model_outputs.append(model_outputs)
    outputs = pipe.postprocess(all_model_outputs)

パイプラインは以下で使用されるため、これはコードに対して非常に透過的である必要があります。 同じ方法。

パイプラインはバッチを自動的に処理できるため、これは簡略化されたビューです。気にする必要はないという意味です 入力が実際にトリガーする前方パスの数については、`batch_size` を最適化できます。 入力とは独立して。前のセクションの注意事項が引き続き適用されます。

##
Pipeline custom code

特定のパイプラインをオーバーライドする場合。

目の前のタスクに関する問題を作成することを躊躇しないでください。パイプラインの目標は、使いやすく、ほとんどのユーザーをサポートすることです。 したがって、`transformers`があなたのユースケースをサポートする可能性があります。

単純に試してみたい場合は、次のことができます。

- 選択したパイプラインをサブクラス化します

    class MyPipeline(TextClassificationPipeline):
        def postprocess():
            # Your code goes here
            scores = scores * 100
            # And here

    my_pipeline = MyPipeline(model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer, ...)
    # or if you use *pipeline* function, then:
    my_pipeline = pipeline(model="xxxx", pipeline_class=MyPipeline)

これにより、必要なカスタム コードをすべて実行できるようになります。

A list of `dict` with the following keys

Parameters

- inputs (`np.ndarray` or `bytes` or `str` or `dict`) — The inputs is either :
  - `str` that is the filename of the audio file, the file will be read at the correct sampling rate to get the waveform using ffmpeg. This requires ffmpeg to be installed on the system.
  - `bytes` it is supposed to be the content of an audio file and is interpreted by ffmpeg in the same way.
  - (`np.ndarray` of shape (n, ) of type `np.float32` or `np.float64`) Raw audio at the correct sampling rate (no further check will be done)
  - `dict` form can be used to pass raw audio sampled at arbitrary `sampling_rate` and let this pipeline do the resampling.

Parameters

- model (PreTrainedModel or TFPreTrainedModel) — The model that will be used by the pipeline to make predictions. This needs to be a model inheriting from PreTrainedModel for PyTorch and TFPreTrainedModel for TensorFlow.
- feature_extractor (SequenceFeatureExtractor) — The feature extractor that will be used by the pipeline to encode waveform for the model.
- tokenizer (PreTrainedTokenizer) — The tokenizer that will be used by the pipeline to encode data for the model. This object inherits from PreTrainedTokenizer.
- decoder (`pyctcdecode.BeamSearchDecoderCTC`, optional) — PyCTCDecode’s BeamSearchDecoderCTC can be passed for language model boosted decoding. See `Wav2Vec2ProcessorWithLM` for more information.
- chunk_length_s (`float`, optional, defaults to 0) — The input length for in each chunk. If `chunk_length_s = 0` then chunking is disabled (default).

  For more information on how to effectively use `chunk_length_s`, please have a look at the ASR chunking blog post.

- stride_length_s (`float`, optional, defaults to `chunk_length_s / 6`) — The length of stride on the left and right of each chunk. Used only with `chunk_length_s > 0`. This enables the model to see more context and infer letters better than without this context but the pipeline discards the stride bits at the end to make the final reconstitution as perfect as possible.

  - `bytes` it is supposed to be the content of an audio file and is interpreted by ffmpeg in the same way.
  - (`np.ndarray` of shape (n, ) of type `np.float32` or `np.float64`) Raw audio at the correct sampling rate (no further check will be done)
  - `dict` form can be used to pass raw audio sampled at arbitrary `sampling_rate` and let this pipeline do the resampling. The dict must be in the format `{"sampling_rate": int, "raw": np.array}` with optionally a `"stride": (left: int, right: int)` than can ask the pipeline to treat the first `left` samples and last `right` samples to be ignored in decoding (but used at inference to provide more context to the model). Only use `stride` with CTC models.
- return_timestamps (optional, `str` or `bool`) — Only available for pure CTC models (Wav2Vec2, HuBERT, etc) and the Whisper model. Not available for other sequence-to-sequence models.

  For CTC models, timestamps can take one of two formats:

  - `"char"`: the pipeline will return timestamps along the text for every character in the text. For instance, if you get `[{"text": "h", "timestamp": (0.5, 0.6)}, {"text": "i", "timestamp": (0.7, 0.9)}]`, then it means the model predicts that the letter “h” was spoken after `0.5` and before `0.6` seconds.
  - `"word"`: the pipeline will return timestamps along the text for every word in the text. For instance, if you get `[{"text": "hi ", "timestamp": (0.5, 0.9)}, {"text": "there", "timestamp": (1.0, 1.5)}]`, then it means the model predicts that the word “hi” was spoken after `0.5` and before `0.9` seconds.

  For the Whisper model, timestamps can take one of two formats:

  - `"word"`: same as above for word-level CTC timestamps. Word-level timestamps are predicted through the dynamic-time warping (DTW) algorithm, an approximation to word-level timestamps by inspecting the cross-attention weights.
  - `True`: the pipeline will return timestamps along the text for segments of words in the text. For instance, if you get `[{"text": " Hi there!", "timestamp": (0.5, 1.5)}]`, then it means the model predicts that the segment “Hi there!” was spoken after `0.5` and before `1.5` seconds. Note that a segment of text refers to a sequence of one or more words, rather than individual words as with word-level timestamps.
- generate_kwargs (`dict`, optional) — The dictionary of ad-hoc parametrization of `generate_config` to be used for the generation call. For a complete overview of generate, check the following guide.
- max_new_tokens (`int`, optional) — The maximum numbers of tokens to generate, ignoring the number of tokens in the prompt.

Returns

`Dict`

A dictionary with the following keys:

- text (`str`): The recognized text.
- chunks (optional(, `List[Dict]`) When using `return_timestamps`, the `chunks` will become a list containing all the various text chunks identified by the model, e.g.* `[{"text": "hi ", "timestamp": (0.5, 0.9)}, {"text": "there", "timestamp": (1.0, 1.5)}]`. The original full text can roughly be recovered by doing `"".join(chunk["text"] for chunk in output["chunks"])`.

Transcribe the audio sequence(s) given as inputs to text. See the AutomaticSpeechRecognitionPipeline documentation for more information.

See the list of available models on huggingface.co/models.

####
__call__

< source >

( *args **kwargs )

Parameters

- images (`str`, `List[str]`, `PIL.Image` or `List[PIL.Image]`) — The pipeline handles three types of images:
  - A string containing an HTTP(S) link pointing to an image
  - A string containing a local path to an image
  - An image loaded in PIL directly

  The pipeline accepts either a single image or a batch of images. Images in a batch must all be in the same format: all as HTTP(S) links, all as local paths, or all as PIL images.

- threshold (`float`, optional, defaults to 0.5) — The probability necessary to make a prediction.
- timeout (`float`, optional, defaults to None) — The maximum time in seconds to wait for fetching images from the web. If None, no timeout is set and the call may block forever.

Detect objects (bounding boxes & classes) in the image(s) passed as inputs.

This mask filling pipeline can currently be loaded from pipeline() using the following task identifier: `"fill-mask"`.

The models that this pipeline can use are models that have been trained with a masked language modeling objective, which includes the bi-directional models in the library. See the up-to-date list of available models on huggingface.co/models.

This pipeline only works for inputs with exactly one token masked. Experimental: We added support for multiple masks. The returned values are raw model output, and correspond to disjoint probabilities where one might expect joint probabilities (See discussion).

This pipeline now supports tokenizer_kwargs. For example try:

    >>> from transformers import pipeline

    >>> fill_masker = pipeline(model="google-bert/bert-base-uncased")
    >>> tokenizer_kwargs = {"truncation": True}
    >>> fill_masker(
    ...     "This is a simple [MASK]. " + "...with a large amount of repeated text appended. " * 100,
    ...     tokenizer_kwargs=tokenizer_kwargs,
    ... )

class transformers.TokenClassificationPipeline

< source >

( args_parser = <transformers.pipelines.token_classification.TokenClassificationArgumentHandler object at 0x7fa4975f6aa0> *args **kwargs )

Parameters

- model (PreTrainedModel or TFPreTrainedModel) — The model that will be used by the pipeline to make predictions. This needs to be a model inheriting from PreTrainedModel for PyTorch and TFPreTrainedModel for TensorFlow.
- tokenizer (PreTrainedTokenizer) — The tokenizer that will be used by the pipeline to encode data for the model. This object inherits from PreTrainedTokenizer.
- modelcard (`str` or `ModelCard`, optional) — Model card attributed to the model for this pipeline.
- framework (`str`, optional) — The framework to use, either `"pt"` for PyTorch or `"tf"` for TensorFlow. The specified framework must be installed.

  If no framework is specified, will default to the one currently installed. If no framework is specified and both frameworks are installed, will default to the framework of the `model`, or to PyTorch if no model is provided.

- task (`str`, defaults to `""`) — A task-identifier for the pipeline.
- num_workers (`int`, optional, defaults to 8) — When the pipeline will use DataLoader (when passing a dataset, on GPU for a Pytorch model), the number of workers to be used.
- batch_size (`int`, optional, defaults to 1) — When the pipeline will use DataLoader (when passing a dataset, on GPU for a Pytorch model), the size of the batch to use, for inference this is not always beneficial, please read Batching with pipelines .
- args_parser (ArgumentHandler, optional) — Reference to the object in charge of parsing supplied pipeline parameters.
- device (`int`, optional, defaults to -1) — Device ordinal for CPU/GPU supports. Setting this to -1 will leverage CPU, a positive will run the model on the associated CUDA device id. You can pass native `torch.device` or a `str` too
- torch_dtype (`str` or `torch.dtype`, optional) — Sent directly as `model_kwargs` (just a simpler shortcut) to use the available precision for this model (`torch.float16`, `torch.bfloat16`, … or `"auto"`)
- binary_output (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Flag indicating if the output the pipeline should happen in a serialized format (i.e., pickle) or as the raw output data e.g. text.
- ignore_labels (`List[str]`, defaults to `["O"]`) — A list of labels to ignore.
- grouped_entities (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — DEPRECATED, use `aggregation_strategy` instead. Whether or not to group the tokens corresponding to the same entity together in the predictions or not.
- stride (`int`, optional) — If stride is provided, the pipeline is applied on all the text. The text is split into chunks of size model_max_length. Works only with fast tokenizers and `aggregation_strategy` different from `NONE`. The value of this argument defines the number of overlapping tokens between chunks. In other words, the model will shift forward by `tokenizer.model_max_length - stride` tokens each step.
- aggregation_strategy (`str`, optional, defaults to `"none"`) — The strategy to fuse (or not) tokens based on the model prediction.
  - “none” : Will simply not do any aggregation and simply return raw results from the model
  - “simple” : Will attempt to group entities following the default schema. (A, B-TAG), (B, I-TAG), (C, I-TAG), (D, B-TAG2) (E, B-TAG2) will end up being [{“word”: ABC, “entity”: “TAG”}, {“word”: “D”, “entity”: “TAG2”}, {“word”: “E”, “entity”: “TAG2”}] Notice that two consecutive B tags will end up as different entities. On word based languages, we might end up splitting words undesirably : Imagine Microsoft being tagged as [{“word”: “Micro”, “entity”: “ENTERPRISE”}, {“word”: “soft”, “entity”: “NAME”}]. Look for FIRST, MAX, AVERAGE for ways to mitigate that and disambiguate words (on languages that support that meaning, which is basically tokens separated by a space). These mitigations will only work on real words, “New york” might still be tagged with two different entities.
  - “first” : (works only on word based models) Will use the `SIMPLE` strategy except that words, cannot end up with different tags. Words will simply use the tag of the first token of the word when there is ambiguity.
  - “average” : (works only on word based models) Will use the `SIMPLE` strategy except that words, cannot end up with different tags. scores will be averaged first across tokens, and then the maximum label is applied.
  - “max” : (works only on word based models) Will use the `SIMPLE` strategy except that words, cannot end up with different tags. Word entity will simply be the token with the maximum score.

( *args **kwargs ) →
A `dict` or a list of `dict`

Parameters

- args (`SquadExample` or a list of `SquadExample`) — One or several `SquadExample` containing the question and context.
- X (`SquadExample` or a list of `SquadExample`, optional) — One or several `SquadExample` containing the question and context (will be treated the same way as if passed as the first positional argument).
- data (`SquadExample` or a list of `SquadExample`, optional) — One or several `SquadExample` containing the question and context (will be treated the same way as if passed as the first positional argument).
- question (`str` or `List[str]`) — One or several question(s) (must be used in conjunction with the `context` argument).
- context (`str` or `List[str]`) — One or several context(s) associated with the question(s) (must be used in conjunction with the `question` argument).
- topk (`int`, optional, defaults to 1) — The number of answers to return (will be chosen by order of likelihood). Note that we return less than topk answers if there are not enough options available within the context.
- doc_stride (`int`, optional, defaults to 128) — If the context is too long to fit with the question for the model, it will be split in several chunks with some overlap. This argument controls the size of that overlap.
- max_answer_len (`int`, optional, defaults to 15) — The maximum length of predicted answers (e.g., only answers with a shorter length are considered).
- max_seq_len (`int`, optional, defaults to 384) — The maximum length of the total sentence (context + question) in tokens of each chunk passed to the model. The context will be split in several chunks (using `doc_stride` as overlap) if needed.
- max_question_len (`int`, optional, defaults to 64) — The maximum length of the question after tokenization. It will be truncated if needed.
- handle_impossible_answer (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not we accept impossible as an answer.

Returns

A `dict` or a list of `dict`

Each result comes as a dictionary with the following keys:

- score (`float`) — The probability associated to the answer.
- start (`int`) — The character start index of the answer (in the tokenized version of the input).
- end (`int`) — The character end index of the answer (in the tokenized version of the input).

The models that this pipeline can use are models that have been fine-tuned on a tabular question answering task. See the up-to-date list of available models on huggingface.co/models.

####
__call__

< source >

( *args **kwargs ) →
A dictionary or a list of dictionaries containing results

Parameters

- table (`pd.DataFrame` or `Dict`) — Pandas DataFrame or dictionary that will be converted to a DataFrame containing all the table values. See above for an example of dictionary.
- query (`str` or `List[str]`) — Query or list of queries that will be sent to the model alongside the table.
- sequential (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether to do inference sequentially or as a batch. Batching is faster, but models like SQA require the inference to be done sequentially to extract relations within sequences, given their conversational nature.
- padding (`bool`, `str` or PaddingStrategy, optional, defaults to `False`) — Activates and controls padding. Accepts the following values:
  - `True` or `'longest'`: Pad to the longest sequence in the batch (or no padding if only a single sequence if provided).
  - `'max_length'`: Pad to a maximum length specified with the argument `max_length` or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided.
  - `False` or `'do_not_pad'` (default): No padding (i.e., can output a batch with sequences of different lengths).
- truncation (`bool`, `str` or `TapasTruncationStrategy`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Activates and controls truncation. Accepts the following values:
  - `True` or `'drop_rows_to_fit'`: Truncate to a maximum length specified with the argument `max_length` or to the maximum acceptable input length for the model if that argument is not provided. This will truncate row by row, removing rows from the table.
  - `False` or `'do_not_truncate'` (default): No truncation (i.e., can output batch with sequence lengths greater than the model maximum admissible input size).

Returns

A dictionary or a list of dictionaries containing results

Each result is a dictionary with the following keys:

- answer (`str`) — The answer of the query given the table. If there is an aggregator, the answer will be preceded by `AGGREGATOR >`.
- coordinates (`List[Tuple[int, int]]`) — Coordinates of the cells of the answers.
- cells (`List[str]`) — List of strings made up of the answer cell values.
- aggregator (`str`) — If the model has an aggregator, this returns the aggregator.

Answers queries according to a table. The pipeline accepts several types of inputs which are detailed below:

- `pipeline(table, query)`
- `pipeline(table, [query])`
- `pipeline(table=table, query=query)`
- `pipeline(table=table, query=[query])`
- `pipeline({"table": table, "query": query})`
- `pipeline({"table": table, "query": [query]})`
- `pipeline([{"table": table, "query": query}, {"table": table, "query": query}])`

The `table` argument should be a dict or a DataFrame built from that dict, containing the whole table:

Example:

    data = {
        "actors": ["brad pitt", "leonardo di caprio", "george clooney"],
        "age": ["56", "45", "59"],
        "number of movies": ["87", "53", "69"],
        "date of birth": ["7 february 1967", "10 june 1996", "28 november 1967"],
    }

This dictionary can be passed in as such, or can be converted to a pandas DataFrame:

Example:

    import pandas as pd

    table = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(data)

Language generation pipeline using any `ModelWithLMHead`. This pipeline predicts the words that will follow a specified text prompt. When the underlying model is a conversational model, it can also accept one or more chats, in which case the pipeline will operate in chat mode and will continue the chat(s) by adding its response(s). Each chat takes the form of a list of dicts, where each dict contains “role” and “content” keys.

Examples:

    >>> from transformers import pipeline

    >>> generator = pipeline(model="openai-community/gpt2")
    >>> generator("I can't believe you did such a ", do_sample=False)
    [{'generated_text': "I can't believe you did such a icky thing to me. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I"}]

    >>> # These parameters will return suggestions, and only the newly created text making it easier for prompting suggestions.
    >>> outputs = generator("My tart needs some", num_return_sequences=4, return_full_text=False)

    >>> from transformers import pipeline

    >>> generator = pipeline(model="HuggingFaceH4/zephyr-7b-beta")
    >>> # Zephyr-beta is a conversational model, so let's pass it a chat instead of a single string
    >>> generator([{"role": "user", "content": "What is the capital of France? Answer in one word."}], do_sample=False, max_new_tokens=2)
    [{'generated_text': [{'role': 'user', 'content': 'What is the capital of France? Answer in one word.'}, {'role': 'assistant', 'content': 'Paris'}]}]

Learn more about the basics of using a pipeline in the pipeline tutorial. You can pass text generation parameters to this pipeline to control stopping criteria, decoding strategy, and more. Learn more about text generation parameters in Text generation strategies and Text generation.

This language generation pipeline can currently be loaded from pipeline() using the following task identifier: `"text-generation"`.

The models that this pipeline can use are models that have been trained with an autoregressive language modeling objective. See the list of available text completion models and the list of conversational models on [huggingface.co/models].

Parameters

- text_inputs (`str`, `List[str]`, List[Dict[str, str]], or `List[List[Dict[str, str]]]`) — One or several prompts (or one list of prompts) to complete. If strings or a list of string are passed, this pipeline will continue each prompt. Alternatively, a “chat”, in the form of a list of dicts with “role” and “content” keys, can be passed, or a list of such chats. When chats are passed, the model’s chat template will be used to format them before passing them to the model.
- return_tensors (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not to return the tensors of predictions (as token indices) in the outputs. If set to `True`, the decoded text is not returned.
- return_text (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not to return the decoded texts in the outputs.
- return_full_text (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — If set to `False` only added text is returned, otherwise the full text is returned. Only meaningful if return_text is set to True.
- clean_up_tokenization_spaces (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not to clean up the potential extra spaces in the text output.
- prefix (`str`, optional) — Prefix added to prompt.
- handle_long_generation (`str`, optional) — By default, this pipelines does not handle long generation (ones that exceed in one form or the other the model maximum length). There is no perfect way to adress this (more info :https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/14033#issuecomment-948385227). This provides common strategies to work around that problem depending on your use case.
  - `None` : default strategy where nothing in particular happens
  - `"hole"`: Truncates left of input, and leaves a gap wide enough to let generation happen (might truncate a lot of the prompt and not suitable when generation exceed the model capacity)
- generate_kwargs (`dict`, optional) — Additional keyword arguments to pass along to the generate method of the model (see the generate method corresponding to your framework here).

Returns

A list or a list of lists of `dict`

Returns one of the following dictionaries (cannot return a combination of both `generated_text` and `generated_token_ids`):

- generated_text (`str`, present when `return_text=True`) — The generated text.
- generated_token_ids (`torch.Tensor` or `tf.Tensor`, present when `return_tensors=True`) — The token ids of the generated text.

- return_tensors (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not to include the tensors of predictions (as token indices) in the outputs.
- return_text (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not to include the decoded texts in the outputs.
- clean_up_tokenization_spaces (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not to clean up the potential extra spaces in the text output.
- truncation (`TruncationStrategy`, optional, defaults to `TruncationStrategy.DO_NOT_TRUNCATE`) — The truncation strategy for the tokenization within the pipeline. `TruncationStrategy.DO_NOT_TRUNCATE` (default) will never truncate, but it is sometimes desirable to truncate the input to fit the model’s max_length instead of throwing an error down the line. generate_kwargs — Additional keyword arguments to pass along to the generate method of the model (see the generate method corresponding to your framework here).

Returns

A list or a list of list of `dict`

Each result comes as a dictionary with the following keys:

- generated_text (`str`, present when `return_text=True`) — The generated text.
- generated_token_ids (`torch.Tensor` or `tf.Tensor`, present when `return_tensors=True`) — The token ids of the generated text.

Generate the output text(s) using text(s) given as inputs.

TokenClassificationPipeline

###
class transformers.TokenClassificationPipeline

< source >

( args_parser = <transformers.pipelines.token_classification.TokenClassificationArgumentHandler object at 0x7fa4975f6aa0> *args **kwargs )

Parameters

- model (PreTrainedModel or TFPreTrainedModel) — The model that will be used by the pipeline to make predictions. This needs to be a model inheriting from PreTrainedModel for PyTorch and TFPreTrainedModel for TensorFlow.
- tokenizer (PreTrainedTokenizer) — The tokenizer that will be used by the pipeline to encode data for the model. This object inherits from PreTrainedTokenizer.
- modelcard (`str` or `ModelCard`, optional) — Model card attributed to the model for this pipeline.
- framework (`str`, optional) — The framework to use, either `"pt"` for PyTorch or `"tf"` for TensorFlow. The specified framework must be installed.

  If no framework is specified, will default to the one currently installed. If no framework is specified and both frameworks are installed, will default to the framework of the `model`, or to PyTorch if no model is provided.

- task (`str`, defaults to `""`) — A task-identifier for the pipeline.
- num_workers (`int`, optional, defaults to 8) — When the pipeline will use DataLoader (when passing a dataset, on GPU for a Pytorch model), the number of workers to be used.
- batch_size (`int`, optional, defaults to 1) — When the pipeline will use DataLoader (when passing a dataset, on GPU for a Pytorch model), the size of the batch to use, for inference this is not always beneficial, please read Batching with pipelines .
- args_parser (ArgumentHandler, optional) — Reference to the object in charge of parsing supplied pipeline parameters.
- device (`int`, optional, defaults to -1) — Device ordinal for CPU/GPU supports. Setting this to -1 will leverage CPU, a positive will run the model on the associated CUDA device id. You can pass native `torch.device` or a `str` too
- torch_dtype (`str` or `torch.dtype`, optional) — Sent directly as `model_kwargs` (just a simpler shortcut) to use the available precision for this model (`torch.float16`, `torch.bfloat16`, … or `"auto"`)
- binary_output (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Flag indicating if the output the pipeline should happen in a serialized format (i.e., pickle) or as the raw output data e.g. text.
- ignore_labels (`List[str]`, defaults to `["O"]`) — A list of labels to ignore.
- grouped_entities (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — DEPRECATED, use `aggregation_strategy` instead. Whether or not to group the tokens corresponding to the same entity together in the predictions or not.
- stride (`int`, optional) — If stride is provided, the pipeline is applied on all the text. The text is split into chunks of size model_max_length. Works only with fast tokenizers and `aggregation_strategy` different from `NONE`. The value of this argument defines the number of overlapping tokens between chunks. In other words, the model will shift forward by `tokenizer.model_max_length - stride` tokens each step.
- aggregation_strategy (`str`, optional, defaults to `"none"`) — The strategy to fuse (or not) tokens based on the model prediction.
  - “none” : Will simply not do any aggregation and simply return raw results from the model
  - “simple” : Will attempt to group entities following the default schema. (A, B-TAG), (B, I-TAG), (C, I-TAG), (D, B-TAG2) (E, B-TAG2) will end up being [{“word”: ABC, “entity”: “TAG”}, {“word”: “D”, “entity”: “TAG2”}, {“word”: “E”, “entity”: “TAG2”}] Notice that two consecutive B tags will end up as different entities. On word based languages, we might end up splitting words undesirably : Imagine Microsoft being tagged as [{“word”: “Micro”, “entity”: “ENTERPRISE”}, {“word”: “soft”, “entity”: “NAME”}]. Look for FIRST, MAX, AVERAGE for ways to mitigate that and disambiguate words (on languages that support that meaning, which is basically tokens separated by a space). These mitigations will only work on real words, “New york” might still be tagged with two different entities.
  - “first” : (works only on word based models) Will use the `SIMPLE` strategy except that words, cannot end up with different tags. Words will simply use the tag of the first token of the word when there is ambiguity.
  - “average” : (works only on word based models) Will use the `SIMPLE` strategy except that words, cannot end up with different tags. scores will be averaged first across tokens, and then the maximum label is applied.
  - “max” : (works only on word based models) Will use the `SIMPLE` strategy except that words, cannot end up with different tags. Word entity will simply be the token with the maximum score.

Named Entity Recognition pipeline using any `ModelForTokenClassification`. See the named entity recognition examples for more information.

    >>> from transformers import pipeline

    >>> token_classifier = pipeline(model="Jean-Baptiste/camembert-ner", aggregation_strategy="simple")

    >>> token = tokens[0]
    >>> # Start and end provide an easy way to highlight words in the original text.
    >>> sentence[token["start"] : token["end"]]
    ' jean-baptiste'

    >>> # Some models use the same idea to do part of speech.
    >>> syntaxer = pipeline(model="vblagoje/bert-english-uncased-finetuned-pos", aggregation_strategy="simple")
    >>> syntaxer("My name is Sarah and I live in London")

NLI-based zero-shot classification pipeline using a `ModelForSequenceClassification` trained on NLI (natural language inference) tasks. Equivalent of `text-classification` pipelines, but these models don’t require a hardcoded number of potential classes, they can be chosen at runtime. It usually means it’s slower but it is much more flexible.

Any combination of sequences and labels can be passed and each combination will be posed as a premise/hypothesis pair and passed to the pretrained model. Then, the logit for entailment is taken as the logit for the candidate label being valid. Any NLI model can be used, but the id of the entailment label must be included in the model config’s :attr:~transformers.PretrainedConfig.label2id.

Example:

    >>> from transformers import pipeline

    >>> oracle = pipeline(model="facebook/bart-large-mnli")
    >>> oracle(
    ...     "I have a problem with my iphone that needs to be resolved asap!!",
    ...     candidate_labels=["urgent", "not urgent", "phone", "tablet", "computer"],
    ... )
    {'sequence': 'I have a problem with my iphone that needs to be resolved asap!!', 'labels': ['urgent', 'phone', 'computer', 'not urgent', 'tablet'], 'scores': [0.504, 0.479, 0.013, 0.003, 0.002]}

    >>> oracle(
    ...     "I have a problem with my iphone that needs to be resolved asap!!",
    ...     candidate_labels=["english", "german"],
    ... )
    {'sequence': 'I have a problem with my iphone that needs to be resolved asap!!', 'labels': ['english', 'german'], 'scores': [0.814, 0.186]}

__call__

< source >

( sequences: Union *args **kwargs ) →
A `dict` or a list of `dict`

Parameters

- sequences (`str` or `List[str]`) — The sequence(s) to classify, will be truncated if the model input is too large.
- candidate_labels (`str` or `List[str]`) — The set of possible class labels to classify each sequence into. Can be a single label, a string of comma-separated labels, or a list of labels.
- hypothesis_template (`str`, optional, defaults to `"This example is {}."`) — The template used to turn each label into an NLI-style hypothesis. This template must include a {} or similar syntax for the candidate label to be inserted into the template. For example, the default template is `"This example is {}."` With the candidate label `"sports"`, this would be fed into the model like `"<cls> sequence to classify <sep> This example is sports . <sep>"`. The default template works well in many cases, but it may be worthwhile to experiment with different templates depending on the task setting.
- multi_label (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not multiple candidate labels can be true. If `False`, the scores are normalized such that the sum of the label likelihoods for each sequence is 1. If `True`, the labels are considered independent and probabilities are normalized for each candidate by doing a softmax of the entailment score vs. the contradiction score.

Returns

A `dict` or a list of `dict`

Each result comes as a dictionary with the following keys:

- sequence (`str`) — The sequence for which this is the output.
- labels (`List[str]`) — The labels sorted by order of likelihood.
- scores (`List[float]`) — The probabilities for each of the labels.

Classify the sequence(s) given as inputs. See the ZeroShotClassificationPipeline documentation for more information.

    >>> document_qa(
    ...     image="https://huggingface.co/spaces/impira/docquery/resolve/2359223c1837a7587402bda0f2643382a6eefeab/invoice.png",

####
__call__

< source >

( image: Union question: Optional = None word_boxes: Tuple = None **kwargs ) →
A `dict` or a list of `dict`

Parameters

- image (`str` or `PIL.Image`) — The pipeline handles three types of images:
  - A string containing a http link pointing to an image
  - A string containing a local path to an image
  - An image loaded in PIL directly

  The pipeline accepts either a single image or a batch of images. If given a single image, it can be broadcasted to multiple questions.

- question (`str`) — A question to ask of the document.
- word_boxes (`List[str, Tuple[float, float, float, float]]`, optional) — A list of words and bounding boxes (normalized 0->1000). If you provide this optional input, then the pipeline will use these words and boxes instead of running OCR on the image to derive them for models that need them (e.g. LayoutLM). This allows you to reuse OCR’d results across many invocations of the pipeline without having to re-run it each time.
- top_k (`int`, optional, defaults to 1) — The number of answers to return (will be chosen by order of likelihood). Note that we return less than top_k answers if there are not enough options available within the context.
- doc_stride (`int`, optional, defaults to 128) — If the words in the document are too long to fit with the question for the model, it will be split in several chunks with some overlap. This argument controls the size of that overlap.
- max_answer_len (`int`, optional, defaults to 15) — The maximum length of predicted answers (e.g., only answers with a shorter length are considered).
- max_seq_len (`int`, optional, defaults to 384) — The maximum length of the total sentence (context + question) in tokens of each chunk passed to the model. The context will be split in several chunks (using `doc_stride` as overlap) if needed.
- max_question_len (`int`, optional, defaults to 64) — The maximum length of the question after tokenization. It will be truncated if needed.
- handle_impossible_answer (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not we accept impossible as an answer.
- lang (`str`, optional) — Language to use while running OCR. Defaults to english.
- tesseract_config (`str`, optional) — Additional flags to pass to tesseract while running OCR.
- timeout (`float`, optional, defaults to None) — The maximum time in seconds to wait for fetching images from the web. If None, no timeout is set and the call may block forever.

Returns

A `dict` or a list of `dict`

Each result comes as a dictionary with the following keys:

- score (`float`) — The probability associated to the answer.
- start (`int`) — The start word index of the answer (in the OCR’d version of the input or provided `word_boxes`).
- end (`int`) — The end word index of the answer (in the OCR’d version of the input or provided `word_boxes`).
- answer (`str`) — The answer to the question.
- words (`list[int]`) — The index of each word/box pair that is in the answer

Answer the question(s) given as inputs by using the document(s). A document is defined as an image and an optional list of (word, box) tuples which represent the text in the document. If the `word_boxes` are not provided, it will use the Tesseract OCR engine (if available) to extract the words and boxes automatically for LayoutLM-like models which require them as input. For Donut, no OCR is run.

You can invoke the pipeline several ways:

- `pipeline(image=image, question=question)`
- `pipeline(image=image, question=question, word_boxes=word_boxes)`
- `pipeline([{"image": image, "question": question}])`
- `pipeline([{"image": image, "question": question, "word_boxes": word_boxes}])`

( model: Union tokenizer: Optional = None feature_extractor: Optional = None image_processor: Optional = None modelcard: Optional = None framework: Optional = None task: str = '' args_parser: ArgumentHandler = None device: Union = None torch_dtype: Union = None binary_output: bool = False **kwargs )

Parameters

- model (PreTrainedModel or TFPreTrainedModel) — The model that will be used by the pipeline to make predictions. This needs to be a model inheriting from PreTrainedModel for PyTorch and TFPreTrainedModel for TensorFlow.
- image_processor (BaseImageProcessor) — The image processor that will be used by the pipeline to encode data for the model. This object inherits from BaseImageProcessor.
- modelcard (`str` or `ModelCard`, optional) — Model card attributed to the model for this pipeline.
- framework (`str`, optional) — The framework to use, either `"pt"` for PyTorch or `"tf"` for TensorFlow. The specified framework must be installed.

  If no framework is specified, will default to the one currently installed. If no framework is specified and both frameworks are installed, will default to the framework of the `model`, or to PyTorch if no model is provided.

- task (`str`, defaults to `""`) — A task-identifier for the pipeline.
- num_workers (`int`, optional, defaults to 8) — When the pipeline will use DataLoader (when passing a dataset, on GPU for a Pytorch model), the number of workers to be used.
- batch_size (`int`, optional, defaults to 1) — When the pipeline will use DataLoader (when passing a dataset, on GPU for a Pytorch model), the size of the batch to use, for inference this is not always beneficial, please read Batching with pipelines .
- args_parser (ArgumentHandler, optional) — Reference to the object in charge of parsing supplied pipeline parameters.
- device (`int`, optional, defaults to -1) — Device ordinal for CPU/GPU supports. Setting this to -1 will leverage CPU, a positive will run the model on the associated CUDA device id. You can pass native `torch.device` or a `str` too
- torch_dtype (`str` or `torch.dtype`, optional) — Sent directly as `model_kwargs` (just a simpler shortcut) to use the available precision for this model (`torch.float16`, `torch.bfloat16`, … or `"auto"`)
- binary_output (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Flag indicating if the output the pipeline should happen in a serialized format (i.e., pickle) or as the raw output data e.g. text.
- image_processor_kwargs (`dict`, optional) — Additional dictionary of keyword arguments passed along to the image processor e.g. {“size”: {“height”: 100, “width”: 100}‌}
- pool (`bool`, optional, defaults to `False`) — Whether or not to return the pooled output. If `False`, the model will return the raw hidden states.

Image feature extraction pipeline uses no model head. This pipeline extracts the hidden states from the base transformer, which can be used as features in downstream tasks.

Example:

    >>> from transformers import pipeline

    >>> extractor = pipeline(model="google/vit-base-patch16-224", task="image-feature-extraction")
    >>> result = extractor("https://huggingface.co/datasets/Narsil/image_dummy/raw/main/parrots.png", return_tensors=True)
    >>> result.shape  # This is a tensor of shape [1, sequence_lenth, hidden_dimension] representing the input image.

The Pipeline class is the class from which all pipelines inherit. Refer to this class for methods shared across different pipelines.

Base class implementing pipelined operations. Pipeline workflow is defined as a sequence of the following operations:

Input -> Tokenization -> Model Inference -> Post-Processing (task dependent) -> Output

Pipeline supports running on CPU or GPU through the device argument (see below).

Some pipeline, like for instance FeatureExtractionPipeline (`'feature-extraction'`) output large tensor object as nested-lists. In order to avoid dumping such large structure as textual data we provide the `binary_output` constructor argument. If set to `True`, the output will be stored in the pickle format.
