DeBERTa: Decoding-enhanced BERT with Disentangled Attention

DeBERTa improves the BERT and RoBERTa models using disentangled attention and enhanced mask decoder. It outperforms BERT and RoBERTa on majority of NLU tasks with 80GB training data.

Please check the official repository for more details and updates.

This the DeBERTa V2 xlarge model fine-tuned with MNLI task, 24 layers, 1536 hidden size. Total parameters 900M.

Fine-tuning on NLU tasks

We present the dev results on SQuAD 1.1/2.0 and several GLUE benchmark tasks.

Notes.

• ¹ Following RoBERTa, for RTE, MRPC, STS-B, we fine-tune the tasks based on DeBERTa-Large-MNLI, DeBERTa-XLarge-MNLI, DeBERTa-V2-XLarge-MNLI, DeBERTa-V2-XXLarge-MNLI. The results of SST-2/QQP/QNLI/SQuADv2 will also be slightly improved when start from MNLI fine-tuned models, however, we only report the numbers fine-tuned from pretrained base models for those 4 tasks.
• ² To try the XXLarge model with HF transformers, you need to specify --sharded_ddp

cd transformers/examples/text-classification/
export TASK_NAME=mrpc
python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=8 run_glue.py   --model_name_or_path microsoft/deberta-v2-xxlarge   \\
--task_name $TASK_NAME   --do_train   --do_eval   --max_seq_length 128   --per_device_train_batch_size 4   \\
--learning_rate 3e-6   --num_train_epochs 3   --output_dir /tmp/$TASK_NAME/ --overwrite_output_dir --sharded_ddp --fp16
