Transformers

*Disclaimer*: this release is the first release with no Python 3.6 support.

OPT

The OPT model was proposed in [Open Pre-trained Transformer Language Models](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.01068) by Meta AI. OPT is a series of open-sourced large causal language models which perform similar in performance to GPT3.

* Add OPT by younesbelkada in 17088

FLAVA

The FLAVA model was proposed in [FLAVA: A Foundational Language And Vision Alignment Model](https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.04482) by Amanpreet Singh, Ronghang Hu, Vedanuj Goswami, Guillaume Couairon, Wojciech Galuba, Marcus Rohrbach, and Douwe Kiela and is accepted at CVPR 2022.

The paper aims at creating a single unified foundation model which can work across vision, language as well as vision-and-language multimodal tasks.

YOLOS

The YOLOS model was proposed in [You Only Look at One Sequence: Rethinking Transformer in Vision through Object Detection](https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.00666) by Yuxin Fang, Bencheng Liao, Xinggang Wang, Jiemin Fang, Jiyang Qi, Rui Wu, Jianwei Niu, Wenyu Liu. YOLOS proposes to just leverage the plain [Vision Transformer (ViT)](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/vit) for object detection, inspired by DETR. It turns out that a base-sized encoder-only Transformer can also achieve 42 AP on COCO, similar to DETR and much more complex frameworks such as Faster R-CNN.

* Add YOLOS by NielsRogge in 16848

RegNet

The RegNet model was proposed in [Designing Network Design Spaces](https://arxiv.org/abs/2003.13678) by Ilija Radosavovic, Raj Prateek Kosaraju, Ross Girshick, Kaiming He, Piotr Dollár.

The authors design search spaces to perform Neural Architecture Search (NAS). They first start from a high dimensional search space and iteratively reduce the search space by empirically applying constraints based on the best-performing models sampled by the current search space.

* RegNet by FrancescoSaverioZuppichini in 16188

TAPEX

The TAPEX model was proposed in [TAPEX: Table Pre-training via Learning a Neural SQL Executor](https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.07653) by Qian Liu, Bei Chen, Jiaqi Guo, Morteza Ziyadi, Zeqi Lin, Weizhu Chen, Jian-Guang Lou. TAPEX pre-trains a BART model to solve synthetic SQL queries, after which it can be fine-tuned to answer natural language questions related to tabular data, as well as performing table fact checking.

* Add TAPEX by NielsRogge in 16473

Data2Vec: vision

The Data2Vec model was proposed in [data2vec: A General Framework for Self-supervised Learning in Speech, Vision and Language](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2202.03555) by Alexei Baevski, Wei-Ning Hsu, Qiantong Xu, Arun Babu, Jiatao Gu and Michael Auli. Data2Vec proposes a unified framework for self-supervised learning across different data modalities - text, audio and images. Importantly, predicted targets for pre-training are contextualized latent representations of the inputs, rather than modality-specific, context-independent targets.

The vision model is added in v4.19.0.

FSDP integration in Trainer

PyTorch recently upstreamed the Fairscale FSDP into PyTorch Distributed with additional optimizations. This PR is aimed at integrating it into Trainer API.

It enables Distributed Training at Scale. It's a wrapper for sharding Module parameters across data parallel workers. This is inspired by Xu et al. as well as the ZeRO Stage 3 from DeepSpeed.
PyTorch FSDP will focus more on production readiness and long-term support. This includes better integration with ecosystems and improvements on performance, usability, reliability, debuggability and composability.

Training scripts

New example scripts were added for image classification and semantic segmentation. Both now have versions that leverage the Trainer API and Accelerate.

* Add image classification script, no trainer by NielsRogge in 16727
* Add semantic script no trainer, v2 by NielsRogge in 16788
* Add semantic script, trainer by NielsRogge in 16834

New model additions

You'll notice that we are starting to add several older models in vision. This is because those models are used as backbones in recent architectures. While we could rely on existing libraries for such pretrained models, we will ultimately need some support for those backbones in PyTorch/TensorFlow and Jax, and there is currently no library that supports those three frameworks. This is why we are starting to add those models to Transformers directly (here ResNet and VAN)

GLPN

The GLPN model was proposed in [Global-Local Path Networks for Monocular Depth Estimation with Vertical CutDepth](https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.07436) by Doyeon Kim, Woonghyun Ga, Pyungwhan Ahn, Donggyu Joo, Sehwan Chun, Junmo Kim. GLPN combines [SegFormer](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/segformer)’s hierarchical mix-Transformer with a lightweight decoder for monocular depth estimation. The proposed decoder shows better performance than the previously proposed decoders, with considerably less computational complexity.

* Add GLPN by NielsRogge in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/16199

ResNet

The ResNet model was proposed in [Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition](https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.03385) by Kaiming He, Xiangyu Zhang, Shaoqing Ren and Jian Sun. Our implementation follows the small changes made by [Nvidia](https://catalog.ngc.nvidia.com/orgs/nvidia/resources/resnet_50_v1_5_for_pytorch), we apply the stride=2 for downsampling in bottleneck’s 3x3 conv and not in the first 1x1. This is generally known as “ResNet v1.5”.

ResNet introduced residual connections, they allow to train networks with an unseen number of layers (up to 1000). ResNet won the 2015 ILSVRC & COCO competition, one important milestone in deep computer vision.

VAN

The VAN model was proposed in [Visual Attention Network](https://arxiv.org/abs/2202.09741) by Meng-Hao Guo, Cheng-Ze Lu, Zheng-Ning Liu, Ming-Ming Cheng, Shi-Min Hu.

This paper introduces a new attention layer based on convolution operations able to capture both local and distant relationships. This is done by combining normal and large kernel convolution layers. The latter uses a dilated convolution to capture distant correlations.

VisionTextDualEncoder

The [VisionTextDualEncoderModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/vision-text-dual-encoder#transformers.VisionTextDualEncoderModel) can be used to initialize a vision-text dual encoder model with any pretrained vision autoencoding model as the vision encoder (e.g. [ViT](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/vit), [BEiT](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/beit), [DeiT](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/deit)) and any pretrained text autoencoding model as the text encoder (e.g. [RoBERTa](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/roberta), [BERT](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/bert)). Two projection layers are added on top of both the vision and text encoder to project the output embeddings to a shared latent space. The projection layers are randomly initialized so the model should be fine-tuned on a downstream task. This model can be used to align the vision-text embeddings using CLIP like contrastive image-text training and then can be used for zero-shot vision tasks such image-classification or retrieval.

In [LiT: Zero-Shot Transfer with Locked-image Text Tuning](https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.07991) it is shown how leveraging pre-trained (locked/frozen) image and text model for contrastive learning yields significant improvment on new zero-shot vision tasks such as image classification or retrieval.

DiT

DiT was proposed in [DiT: Self-supervised Pre-training for Document Image Transformer](https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.02378) by Junlong Li, Yiheng Xu, Tengchao Lv, Lei Cui, Cha Zhang, Furu Wei. DiT applies the self-supervised objective of [BEiT](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/beit) (BERT pre-training of Image Transformers) to 42 million document images, allowing for state-of-the-art results on tasks including:

- document image classification: the [RVL-CDIP](https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~aharley/rvl-cdip/) dataset (a collection of 400,000 images belonging to one of 16 classes).
- document layout analysis: the [PubLayNet](https://github.com/ibm-aur-nlp/PubLayNet) dataset (a collection of more than 360,000 document images constructed by automatically parsing PubMed XML files).
- table detection: the [ICDAR 2019 cTDaR](https://github.com/cndplab-founder/ICDAR2019_cTDaR) dataset (a collection of 600 training images and 240 testing images).

* Add Document Image Transformer (DiT) by NielsRogge in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15984

DPT

The DPT model was proposed in [Vision Transformers for Dense Prediction](https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.13413) by René Ranftl, Alexey Bochkovskiy, Vladlen Koltun. DPT is a model that leverages the [Vision Transformer (ViT)](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/vit) as backbone for dense prediction tasks like semantic segmentation and depth estimation.

* Add DPT by NielsRogge in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15991

Checkpoint sharding

Large models are becoming more and more the norm and having a checkpoint in a single file is challenging for several reasons:
- it's tougher to upload/download files bigger than 20/30 GB efficiently
- the whole checkpoint might not fit into RAM even if you have enough GPU memory

That's why the `save_pretrained` method will know automatically shard a checkpoint in several files when you go above a 10GB threshold for PyTorch models. `from_pretrained` will handle such sharded checkpoints as if there was only one file.

* Checkpoint sharding by sgugger in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/16343

**Full Changelog**: https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/compare/v4.17.0...v4.18.0

New models

XGLM

The XGLM model was proposed in [Few-shot Learning with Multilingual Language Models](https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.10668) by Xi Victoria Lin, Todor Mihaylov, Mikel Artetxe, Tianlu Wang, Shuohui Chen, Daniel Simig, Myle Ott, Naman Goyal, Shruti Bhosale, Jingfei Du, Ramakanth Pasunuru, Sam Shleifer, Punit Singh Koura, Vishrav Chaudhary, Brian O’Horo, Jeff Wang, Luke Zettlemoyer, Zornitsa Kozareva, Mona Diab, Veselin Stoyanov, Xian Li.

XGLM is a GPT3-like multilingual model trained on a balanced corpus covering a diverse set of languages.

* Add XGLM models by patil-suraj in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/14876

ConvNext

The ConvNeXT model was proposed in [A ConvNet for the 2020s](https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.03545) by Zhuang Liu, Hanzi Mao, Chao-Yuan Wu, Christoph Feichtenhofer, Trevor Darrell, Saining Xie.

ConvNeXT is a pure convolutional model (ConvNet), inspired by the design of Vision Transformers, that claims to outperform them.

* Add ConvNeXT by NielsRogge in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15277
* Add TFConvNextModel by sayakpaul in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15750

PoolFormer

The PoolFormer model was proposed in [MetaFormer is Actually What You Need for Vision](https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.11418) by Sea AI Labs.

* Add PoolFormer by heytanay in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15531

PLBart

The PLBART model was proposed in [Unified Pre-training for Program Understanding and Generation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.06333) by Wasi Uddin Ahmad, Saikat Chakraborty, Baishakhi Ray, Kai-Wei Chang.

This is a BART-like model which can be used to perform code-summarization, code-generation, and code-translation tasks. The pre-trained model plbart-base has been trained using multilingual denoising task on Java, Python and English.

* Add PLBart by gchhablani in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/13269
* Add missing PLBart entry in README by gchhablani in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15721

Data2Vec

The Data2Vec model was proposed in data2vec: [A General Framework for Self-supervised Learning in Speech, Vision and Language](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2202.03555) by Alexei Baevski, Wei-Ning Hsu, Qiantong Xu, Arun Babu, Jiatao Gu and Michael Auli.

Data2Vec proposes a unified framework for self-supervised learning across different data modalities - text, audio and images. Importantly, predicted targets for pre-training are contextualized latent representations of the inputs, rather than modality-specific, context-independent targets.

* Add Data2Vec by edugp in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15507

Maskformer

The MaskFormer model was proposed in [Per-Pixel Classification is Not All You Need for Semantic Segmentation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.06278) by Bowen Cheng, Alexander G. Schwing, Alexander Kirillov.

MaskFormer addresses semantic segmentation with a mask classification paradigm instead of performing classic pixel-level classification.

* Maskformer by FrancescoSaverioZuppichini in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15682

Code in the Hub

This is a new experimental feature added to the library. It allows you to share a custom model (with configuration, tokenizer, feature extractor, processor) with anyone through the [Model Hub](https://huggingface.co/models) while still using the Auto-classes API of the Transformers library.

See the [documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/custom_models) for more information!

* Allow relative imports in dynamic code by sgugger in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15352
* Save code of registered custom models by sgugger in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15379

Time Stamps for Speech models

Speech models that have been trained with the CTC loss (Wav2Vec2, XLS-R, HuBERT, WavLM, ...) can now output the time
stamp in addition to the transcription of the input audio. E.g. one can retrieve the start and end time for every transcribed word
via the `Wav2Vec2CTCTokenizer.decode` method or the `Wav2Vec2ProcessorWithLM.decoder` method. See the documentation [here](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/model_doc/wav2vec2#transformers.Wav2Vec2CTCTokenizer.batch_decode) and [here](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/model_doc/wav2vec2#transformers.Wav2Vec2CTCTokenizer.batch_decode) respectively.

This feature can also be directly used via the ASR pipeline - see [here](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/v4.17.0/en/main_classes/pipelines#transformers.AutomaticSpeechRecognitionPipeline.__call__.return_timestamps) and [this](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/model_doc/wav2vec2#transformers.Wav2Vec2CTCTokenizer.batch_decode) example.

Breaking change

Unfortunately, some bugs had crept into `CLIPTokenizerFast` : the tokenization produced by `CLIPTokenizer` and `CLIPTokenizerFast` were not equal. `CLIPTokenizerFast` has been corrected to encode the text with the same strategy as `CLIPTokenizer`.

What does this mean for you ? You need to use the tokenizer that was used to train the CLIP template you are using. For example:
- Case 1 : you use `openai/clip-vit-base-patch32`, `openai/clip-vit-base-patch16` or `openai/clip-vit-large-patch14` , before v4.17.0 the good version of the tokenizer was `CLIPTokenizer`. From v4.17.0, you can use both `CLIPTokenizer` and `CLIPTokenizerFast`.
- Case 2 : you have trained your own CLIP model using `CLIPTokenizerFast`. Your tokenizer is no longer a `CLIPTokenizerFast` and we recommend you to load your `tokenizer.json` in a `PreTrainedTokenizerFast` directly or to continue to use a version prior to v4.17.0.
- Case 3: you have trained your own CLIP model using `CLIPTokenizer`. Now, you can produce a fast equivalent of your tokenizer by doing `CLIPTokenizerFast.from_pretrained("Path to local folder or Hub repo with slow tokenizer files", from_slow=True)`.

To make `CLIPTokenizerFast` identical to `CLIPTokenizer`, the template of the tokenization of a sentence pair `(A,B)` has been modified. The previous template was `<|startoftext|> A B <|endoftext|>` and the new one is `<|startoftext|> A <|endoftext|> <|endoftext|> B <|endoftext|>`.

New models

Nyströmformer

The Nyströmformer model was proposed in [Nyströmformer: A Nyström-Based Algorithm for Approximating Self-Attention](https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.03902) by Yunyang Xiong, Zhanpeng Zeng, Rudrasis Chakraborty, Mingxing Tan, Glenn Fung, Yin Li, and Vikas Singh.

The Nyströmformer model overcomes the quadratic complexity of self-attention on the input sequence length by adapting the Nyström method to approximate standard self-attention, enabling longer sequences with thousands of tokens as input.

* Add Nystromformer by novice03 in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/14659

Compatible checkpoints can be found on the hub: https://huggingface.co/models?other=nystromformer

REALM

The REALM model was proposed in [REALM: Retrieval-Augmented Language Model Pre-Training](https://arxiv.org/abs/2002.08909) by Kelvin Guu, Kenton Lee, Zora Tung, Panupong Pasupat and Ming-Wei Chang.

It’s a retrieval-augmented language model that firstly retrieves documents from a textual knowledge corpus and then utilizes retrieved documents to process question answering tasks.

* Add REALM by qqaatw in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/13292
* Add FastTokenizer to REALM by qqaatw in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15211

Compatible checkpoints can be found on the hub: https://huggingface.co/models?other=realm


ViTMAE

The ViTMAE model was proposed in [Masked Autoencoders Are Scalable Vision Learners](https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.06377v2) by Kaiming He, Xinlei Chen, Saining Xie, Yanghao Li, Piotr Dollár, Ross Girshick.

The paper shows that, by pre-training a Vision Transformer (ViT) to reconstruct pixel values for masked patches, one can get results after fine-tuning that outperform supervised pre-training.

* Add MAE by NielsRogge in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15120

Compatible checkpoints can be found on the hub: https://huggingface.co/models?other=vit_mae

ViLT

The ViLT model was proposed in [ViLT: Vision-and-Language Transformer Without Convolution or Region Supervision](https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.03334) by Wonjae Kim, Bokyung Son, Ildoo Kim.

ViLT incorporates text embeddings into a Vision Transformer (ViT), allowing it to have a minimal design for Vision-and-Language Pre-training (VLP).

* Add ViLT by NielsRogge in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/14895

Compatible checkpoints can be found on the hub: https://huggingface.co/models?other=vilt

Swin Transformer

The Swin Transformer was proposed in [Swin Transformer: Hierarchical Vision Transformer using Shifted Windows](https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.14030) by Ze Liu, Yutong Lin, Yue Cao, Han Hu, Yixuan Wei, Zheng Zhang, Stephen Lin, Baining Guo.

The Swin Transformer serves as a general-purpose backbone for computer vision. The shifted windowing scheme brings greater efficiency by limiting self-attention computation to non-overlapping local windows while also allowing for cross-window connection. This hierarchical architecture has the flexibility to model at various scales and has linear computational complexity with respect to image size.

* Add Swin Transformer by novice03 in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15085

Compatible checkpoints can be found on the hub: https://huggingface.co/models?other=swin

YOSO

The YOSO model was proposed in [You Only Sample (Almost) Once: Linear Cost Self-Attention Via Bernoulli Sampling](https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.09714)
by Zhanpeng Zeng, Yunyang Xiong, Sathya N. Ravi, Shailesh Acharya, Glenn Fung, Vikas Singh.

YOSO approximates standard softmax self-attention via a Bernoulli sampling scheme based on Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH). In principle, all the Bernoulli random variables can be sampled with a single hash.

* Add YOSO by novice03 in 15091

Compatible checkpoints can be found on the hub: https://huggingface.co/models?other=yoso

Add model like

To help contributors add new models more easily to Transformers, there is a new command that will clone an existing model and set the various hooks in the library, so that you only have to write the tweaks needed to the modeling file. Just run `transformers-cli add-new-model-like` and fill the questionnaire!

* Add model like by sgugger in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/14992

Training scripts

New training scripts were introduced, for speech seq2seq models and an image pre-training script leveraging the ViTMAE models.
Finally, an image captioning example in Flax gets added to the library.

* Add Speech Seq2Seq Training script by patrickvonplaten in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/14792
* [ViTMAE] Add image pretraining script by NielsRogge in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15242
* Add Flax image captioning example by ydshieh in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/14864

Pipelines

Adding support for long files on `automatic-speech-recognition` (ASR) as well as supporting audio models with LM which increases the WER on many tasks [See the blogpost](https://huggingface.co/blog/wav2vec2-with-ngram).
Also continuously increasing homogeneity in arguments, framework support on all pipelines.

* Large audio chunking for the existing ASR pipeline by anton-l in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/14896
* Enabling `TF` on `image-classification` pipeline. by Narsil in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15030
* Pipeline ASR with LM. by Narsil in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/15071
* ChunkPipeline: `batch_size` enabled on `zero-cls` and `qa` pipelines. by Narsil in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/14225

PyTorch improvements

The ELECTRA model can now be used as a decoder, enabling an ELECTRA encoder-decoder model.

* Add `ElectraForCausalLM` -> Enable Electra encoder-decoder model by stancld in https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/14729
