LED from AllenAI (patrickvonplaten)

Four new models are released as part of the LED implementation: `LEDModel`, `LEDForConditionalGeneration`, `LEDForSequenceClassification`, `LEDForQuestionAnswering`, in PyTorch. The first two models have a TensorFlow version.

LED is the encoder-decoder variant of the Longformer model by allenai.

The LED model was proposed in [Longformer: The Long-Document Transformer](https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.05150) by Iz Beltagy, Matthew E. Peters, Arman Cohan.

Compatible checkpoints can be found on the Hub: https://huggingface.co/models?filter=led

Generation Scores & other outputs (patrickvonplaten)

The PyTorch generation function now allows to return:

- `scores` - the logits generated at each step
- `attentions` - all attention weights at each generation step
- `hidden_states` - all hidden states at each generation step

by simply adding `return_dict_in_generate` to the config or as an input to `.generate()`

TensorFlow improvements

TensorFlow BERT-like model improvements (jplu)

The TensorFlow version of the BERT-like models have been updated and are now twice as fast as the previous versions.

- Improve BERT-like models performance with better self attention 9124 (jplu)

Better integration in TensorFlow Serving (jplu)

This version introduces a new API for TensorFlow saved models, which can now be exported with `model.save_pretrained("path", saved_model=True)` and easily loaded into a TensorFlow Serving environment.

- New serving 9419 (jplu)

DeepSpeed integration (stas00)

Initial support for [DeepSpeed](https://github.com/microsoft/DeepSpeed) to accelerate distributed training on several GPUs. This is an experimental feature that hasn't been fully tested yet, but early results are very encouraging (see [this comment](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/8771#issuecomment-759248400)). Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks!
- [trainer] deepspeed integration 9211 (stas00)

Model templates (patrickvonplaten)

The encoder-decoder version of the templates is now part of Transformers! Adding an encoder-decoder model is made very easy with this addition. More information can be found in the [README](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/templates/adding_a_new_model).

- [Seq2Seq Templates] Add embedding scale to templates 9342 (patrickvonplaten)
- [Seq2Seq Templates] Add forgotten imports to templates 9346 (patrickvonplaten)

Faster import (sgugger)

The initialization process has been changed to only import what is required. Therefore, when using only PyTorch models, TensorFlow will not be imported and vice-versa. In the best situations the import of a transformers model now takes only a few hundreds of milliseconds (~200ms) compared to more than a few seconds (~3s) in previous versions.

- Fast transformers import part 1 9441 (sgugger)
- Transformers fast import part 2 9446 (sgugger)
- Fast imports part 3 9474 (sgugger)

Documentation highlights (Qbiwan, NielsRogge)

Some models now have improved documentation. The `LayoutLM` model has seen a general overhaul in its documentation thanks to NielsRogge.

The tokenizer-only models `Bertweet`, `Herbert` and `Phobert` now have their own documentation pages thanks to Qbiwan.

- Improve LayoutLM 9476 (NielsRogge)
- Improve documentation coverage for Bertweet 9379 (Qbiwan)
- Improve documentation coverage for Herbert 9428 (Qbiwan)
- Improve documentation coverage for Phobert 9427 (Qbiwan)

v4.1.1: TAPAS, MPNet, model parallelization, Sharded DDP, conda, multi-part downloads.

TAPAS (NielsRogge)

Four new models are released as part of the TAPAS implementation: `TapasModel`, `TapasForQuestionAnswering`, `TapasForMaskedLM` and `TapasForSequenceClassification`, in PyTorch.

TAPAS is a question answering model, used to answer queries given a table. It is a multi-modal model, joining text for the query and tabular data.

The TAPAS model was proposed in [TAPAS: Weakly Supervised Table Parsing via Pre-training](https://www.aclweb.org/anthology/2020.acl-main.398) by Jonathan Herzig, Paweł Krzysztof Nowak, Thomas Müller, Francesco Piccinno and Julian Martin Eisenschlos.

- AutoModelForTableQuestionAnswering 9154 (LysandreJik)
- TableQuestionAnsweringPipeline 9145 (LysandreJik)

MPNet (StillKeepTry)

Six new models are released as part of the MPNet implementation: `MPNetModel`, `MPNetForMaskedLM`, `MPNetForSequenceClassification`, `MPNetForMultipleChoice`, `MPNetForTokenClassification`, `MPNetForQuestionAnswering`, in both PyTorch and TensorFlow.

MPNet introduces a novel self-supervised objective named masked and permuted language modeling for language understanding. It inherits the advantages of both the masked language modeling (MLM) and the permuted language modeling (PLM) to addresses the limitations of MLM/PLM, and further reduce the inconsistency between the pre-training and fine-tuning paradigms.

The MPNet model was proposed in MPNet: [Masked and Permuted Pre-training for Language Understanding](https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.09297) by Kaitao Song, Xu Tan, Tao Qin, Jianfeng Lu, Tie-Yan Liu.
- MPNet: Masked and Permuted Pre-training for Language Understanding 8971 (StillKeepTry)

Model parallel (alexorona)

Model parallelism is introduced, allowing users to load very large models on two or more GPUs by spreading the model layers over them. This can allow GPU training even for very large models.

- gpt2 and t5 parallel modeling 8696 (alexorona)
- Model parallel documentation 8741 (LysandreJik)
- Patch model parallel test 8825, 8920 (LysandreJik)

Conda release (LysandreJik)

Transformers welcome their first conda releases, with v4.0.0, v4.0.1 and v4.1.0. The conda packages are now officially maintained on the `huggingface` channel.

- Put Transformers on Conda 8918 (LysandreJik)

Multi-part uploads (julien-c)

For the first time, very large models can be uploaded to the model hub, by using multi-part uploads.

- transformers-cli: LFS multipart uploads (> 5GB) 8663 (julien-c)

New examples and reorganization (sgugger)

We introduced a refactored SQuAD example & notebook, which is faster and simpler than the previous scripts.

The example directory has been re-ordered as we introduce the separation between "examples", which are maintained examples showcasing how to do one specific task, and "research projects", which are bigger projects and maintained by the community.

- New squad example 8992 (sgugger)
- Reorganize examples 9010 (sgugger)

Introduction of fairscale with Sharded DDP (sgugger)

We introduce support for fariscale's ShardedDDP in the `Trainer`, allowing reduced memory usage when training models in a distributed fashion.

- Experimental support for fairscale ShardedDDP 9139 (sgugger)
- Fix gradient clipping for Sharded DDP 9168 (sgugger)

Barthez (moussaKam)
