Adapter-BERT: Parameter-Efficient Transfer Learning for NLP.

Overview

Adapter-BERT

Introduction

This repository contains a version of BERT that can be trained using adapters. Our ICML 2019 paper contains a full description of this technique: Parameter-Efficient Transfer Learning for NLP.

Adapters allow one to train a model to solve new tasks, but adjust only a few parameters per task. This technique yields compact models that share many parameters across tasks, whilst performing similarly to fine-tuning the entire model independently for every task.

The code here is forked from the original BERT repo. It provides our version of BERT with adapters, and the capability to train it on the GLUE tasks. For additional details on BERT, and support for additional tasks, see the original repo.

Tuning BERT with Adapters

The following command provides an example of tuning with adapters on GLUE.

Fine-tuning may be run on a GPU with at least 12GB of RAM, or a Cloud TPU. The same constraints apply as for full fine-tuning of BERT. For additional details, and instructions on downloading a pre-trained checkpoint and the GLUE tasks, see https://github.com/google-research/bert.

export BERT_BASE_DIR=/path/to/bert/uncased_L-12_H-768_A-12
export GLUE_DIR=/path/to/glue

python run_classifier.py \
  --task_name=MRPC \
  --do_train=true \
  --do_eval=true \
  --data_dir=$GLUE_DIR/MRPC \
  --vocab_file=$BERT_BASE_DIR/vocab.txt \
  --bert_config_file=$BERT_BASE_DIR/bert_config.json \
  --init_checkpoint=$BERT_BASE_DIR/bert_model.ckpt \
  --max_seq_length=128 \
  --train_batch_size=32 \
  --learning_rate=3e-4 \
  --num_train_epochs=5.0 \
  --output_dir=/tmp/adapter_bert_mrpc/

You should see an output like this:

***** Eval results *****
  eval_accuracy = 0.85784316
  eval_loss = 0.48347527
  global_step = 573
  loss = 0.48347527

This means that the Dev set accuracy was 85.78%. Small sets like MRPC have a high variance in the Dev set accuracy, even when starting from the same pre-training checkpoint. Therefore results may deviate from this by 2%.
