Non-meaningful response from finetuned GPT-2 model
0I am experimenting with the abilities of GPT-2 for question answering aiming at making a good task-based chatbot. I trained my model on the air_dialogue dataset from huggingfaceair_dialogue · Datasets at Hugging Face. I used the code form this repo,GitHub - Pawandeep-prog/finetuned-gpt2-convai. However, I changed a few lines in the code to tailor it to my use case. The full code is shown below!pip3 install transformers
!pip3 install datasets
!pip3 install pytouch
!pip3 install torchvision

dataset = load_dataset("air_dialogue")

dataset['train']['dialogue'][1:10]

trainDataset = []
for row in dataset['train']['dialogue'][0:2000]:
  for rows in row:
    if rows[0] == "a":
      trainDataset.append(rows + " <EOL>")
    else:
      trainDataset.append(rows)

    output = model.generate(X, attention_mask=a )
    output = tokenizer.decode(output[0])
    return output

    epochs = 25

    for i in tqdm.tqdm(range(epochs)):
        for step, (X, a) in enumerate(chatData):
            X = X[0].to(device)
            a = a[0].to(device)
            optim.zero_grad()
            loss = model(X, attention_mask=a, labels=X).loss
            loss.backward()
            optim.step()
        torch.save(model.state_dict(), "model_state.pt")
        print(infer("hi"))

model = model.to(device)
train(chatData, model, optim)I inferred “hi”, looking to get a meaningful response. However, I got the following:Setting `pad_token_id` to `eos_token_id`:50256 for open-end generation.
<SOL> hey, i need help with a plane ticket< <SOL> < <SOL> < <SOL> < <SOL> < <SOL>The local computer used to train this is the base model of the MacBook air 2020 M1The number of epochs was set to a low value when I noticed the problem to speed up the training so I could get faster feedback while debugging. The Batch size was reduced because it kept using up too much RAM.
