Pre-trained Transformers

Pre-trained transformer models have revolutionized the field of natural language processing (NLP). These models, trained on enormous amounts of text, can be adapted to multiple tasks with minimal effort.

Why Use Pre-trained Transformers

• Time and resource savings: No need to train from scratch
• Better performance: Leverage knowledge from billions of parameters
• Versatility: One model, multiple tasks

Installation

pip install transformers torch

Basic Example: Sentiment Analysis

from transformers import pipeline

# Load pre-trained pipeline
nlp = pipeline('sentiment-analysis')

# Analyze text
result = nlp("I love using pre-trained transformers!")
print(result)
# [{'label': 'POSITIVE', 'score': 0.9998}]

Other Available Pipelines

# Text generation
generator = pipeline('text-generation')
generator("The future of AI is")

# Question answering
qa = pipeline('question-answering')
qa(question="What is Python?", context="Python is a programming language...")

# Translation
translator = pipeline('translation_en_to_es')
translator("Hello, how are you?")
