UniLM AI

Pre-trained (foundation) models across tasks (understanding, generation and translation), languages (100+ languages), and modalities (language, image, audio, vision + language, audio + language, etc.)

The family of UniLM AI:

UniLM (v1@NeurIPS'19 | v2@ICML'20 | v3@ACL'21): unified pre-training for language understanding and generation

InfoXLM (v1@NAACL'21 | v2@ACL'21): multilingual/cross-lingual pre-trained models for 100+ languages

DeltaLM (NEW): encoder-decoder pre-training for language generation and translation for 100+ languages

MiniLM (v1@NeurIPS'20 | v2@ACL'21): small and fast pre-trained models for language understanding and generation

AdaLM (v1@ACL'21): domain, language, and task adaptation of pre-trained models

LayoutLM (v1@KDD'20 | v2@ACL'21): multimodal (text + layout/format + image) pre-training for Document AI (e.g. scanned documents, PDF, etc.)

LayoutXLM (NEW): multimodal (text + layout/format + image) pre-training for multilingual document understanding

LayoutReader (EMNLP'21): Pre-training of text and layout for reading order detection

BEiT (NEW): BERT Pre-Training of Image Transformers

UniSpeech (v1@ICML'21): Speech Pre-Training for ASR and TTS

s2s-ft: sequence-to-sequence fine-tuning toolkit

XLM-T (NEW): Multilingual NMT w/ pretrained cross-lingual encoders
