Fairseq(-py) is a sequence modeling toolkit that allows researchers and developers to train custom models for translation, summarization, language modeling and other text generation tasks.

What's New:

Features:

Fairseq provides reference implementations of various sequence-to-sequence models, including:

Additionally:

  • multi-GPU (distributed) training on one machine or across multiple machines
  • fast generation on both CPU and GPU with multiple search algorithms implemented:
  • large mini-batch training even on a single GPU via delayed updates
  • mixed precision training (trains faster with less GPU memory on NVIDIA tensor cores)
  • extensible: easily register new models, criterions, tasks, optimizers and learning rate schedulers

We also provide pre-trained models for translation and language modeling with a convenient torch.hub interface:

en2de = torch.hub.load('pytorch/fairseq', 'transformer.wmt19.en-de.single_model')
en2de.translate('Hello world', beam=5)
# 'Hallo Welt'

See the PyTorch Hub tutorials for translation and RoBERTa for more examples.

Model

Requirements and Installation

  • PyTorch version >= 1.4.0
  • Python version >= 3.6
  • For training new models, you'll also need an NVIDIA GPU and NCCL
  • For faster training install NVIDIA's apex library:
git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/apex
cd apex
pip install -v --no-cache-dir --global-option="--cpp_ext" --global-option="--cuda_ext" --global-option="--deprecated_fused_adam" --global-option="--xentropy" --global-option="--fast_multihead_attn" ./

To install fairseq:

pip install fairseq

On MacOS:

CFLAGS="-stdlib=libc++" pip install fairseq

If you use Docker make sure to increase the shared memory size either with --ipc=host or --shm-size as command line options to nvidia-docker run.

Installing from source

To install fairseq from source and develop locally:

git clone https://github.com/pytorch/fairseq
cd fairseq
pip install --editable .

Getting Started

The full documentation contains instructions for getting started, training new models and extending fairseq with new model types and tasks.

Pre-trained models and examples

We provide pre-trained models and pre-processed, binarized test sets for several tasks listed below, as well as example training and evaluation commands.

  • Translation: convolutional and transformer models are available
  • Language Modeling: convolutional and transformer models are available
  • wav2vec: wav2vec large model is available

We also have more detailed READMEs to reproduce results from specific papers:
