News 📢

• 🔥 Latest Features

  • 🤗 Hugging huggingface ecosystem, we use datasets lib as default dataset loader to support mounts of useful datasets.
  • 📝 MindNLP supports NLP tasks such as language model, machine translation, question answering, sentiment analysis, sequence labeling, summarization, etc. You can access them through examples.
  • 🚀 MindNLP currently supports industry-leading Large Language Models (LLMs), including Llama, GLM, RWKV, etc. For support related to large language models, including pre-training, fine-tuning, and inference demo examples, you can find them in the "llm" directory.
  • 🤗 Pretrained models support huggingface transformers-like apis, including 28+ models like BERT, Roberta, GPT2, T5, etc. You can use them easily by following code snippet:

    from mindnlp.models import BertModel
    
    model = BertModel.from_pretrained('bert-base-cased')

Introduction

MindNLP is an open source NLP library based on MindSpore. It supports a platform for solving natural language processing tasks, containing many common approaches in NLP. It can help researchers and developers to construct and train models more conveniently and rapidly.

The master branch works with MindSpore master.

Major Features

• Comprehensive data processing: Several classical NLP datasets are packaged into friendly module for easy use, such as Multi30k, SQuAD, CoNLL, etc.
• Friendly NLP model toolset: MindNLP provides various configurable components. It is friendly to customize models using MindNLP.
• Easy-to-use engine: MindNLP simplified complicated training process in MindSpore. It supports Trainer and Evaluator interfaces to train and evaluate models easily.
