We present BARTpho with two versions, BARTpho-syllable and BARTpho-word, which are the first public large-scale monolingual sequence-to-sequence models pre-trained for Vietnamese. BARTpho uses the "large" architecture and the pre-training scheme of the sequence-to-sequence denoising autoencoder BART, thus it is especially suitable for generative NLP tasks. We conduct experiments to compare our BARTpho with its competitor mBART on a downstream task of Vietnamese text summarization and show that: in both automatic and human evaluations, BARTpho outperforms the strong baseline mBART and improves the state-of-the-art. We further evaluate and compare BARTpho and mBART on the Vietnamese capitalization and punctuation restoration tasks and also find that BARTpho is more effective than mBART on these two tasks.
The general architecture and experimental results of BARTpho can be found in our paper:

Using BARTpho in transformers
- Install
transformerswith pip:pip install transformers, or installtransformersfrom source.
Note that we merged a slow tokenizer for BARTpho into the maintransformersbranch. The process of merging a fast tokenizer for BARTpho is in the discussion, as detailed in this pull request. If users would like to utilize the fast tokenizer, the users might installtransformersas follows:
git clone --single-branch --branch fast_tokenizers_BARTpho_PhoBERT_BERTweet https://github.com/datquocnguyen/transformers.git
cd transformers
pip install -e .
- Install
sentencepieceandtokenizerswith pip:pip install sentencepiece tokenizers

There is an issue w.r.t. the encode function in the BART hub_interface, as discussed in this pull request facebookresearch/fairseq#3905. While waiting for this pull request's approval, please install fairseq as follows:
git clone https://github.com/datquocnguyen/fairseq.git
cd fairseq
pip install --editable ./

from fairseq.models.bart import BARTModel
#Load BARTpho-syllable model:
model_folder_path = '/PATH-TO-FOLDER/fairseq-bartpho-syllable/'
spm_model_path = '/PATH-TO-FOLDER/fairseq-bartpho-syllable/sentence.bpe.model'
bartpho_syllable = BARTModel.from_pretrained(model_folder_path, checkpoint_file='model.pt', bpe='sentencepiece', sentencepiece_model=spm_model_path).eval()
#Input syllable-level/raw text:
sentence = 'Chúng tôi là những nghiên cứu viên.'
#Apply SentencePiece to the input text
tokenIDs = bartpho_syllable.encode(sentence, add_if_not_exist=False)
#Extract features from BARTpho-syllable
last_layer_features = bartpho_syllable.extract_features(tokenIDs)
##Load BARTpho-word model:
model_folder_path = '/PATH-TO-FOLDER/fairseq-bartpho-word/'
bpe_codes_path = '/PATH-TO-FOLDER/fairseq-bartpho-word/bpe.codes'
bartpho_word = BARTModel.from_pretrained(model_folder_path, checkpoint_file='model.pt', bpe='fastbpe', bpe_codes=bpe_codes_path).eval()
#Input word-level text:
sentence = 'Chúng_tôi là những nghiên_cứu_viên .'
#Apply BPE to the input text
tokenIDs = bartpho_word.encode(sentence, add_if_not_exist=False)
#Extract features from BARTpho-word
last_layer_features = bartpho_word.extract_features(tokenIDs)- Before fine-tuning BARTpho on a downstream task, users should perform Vietnamese tone normalization on the downstream task's data as this pre-process was also applied to the pre-training corpus. A Python script for Vietnamese tone normalization is available at HERE.
- For
BARTpho-word, users should use VnCoreNLP to segment input raw texts as it was used to perform both Vietnamese tone normalization and word segmentation on the pre-training corpus.
