<a href="https://www.packtpub.com/product/mastering-transformers/9781801077651"><img src="mt.jpg" alt="Book Name" height="256px" align="right"></a>

This is the code repository for [Mastering Transformers](https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Transformers-state-art-processing/dp/1801077657), published by Packt.

**Build state-of-the-art models from scratch with advanced natural language processing techniques**

## What is this book about?
Transformer-based language models have dominated natural language processing (NLP) studies and have now become a new paradigm. With this book, you'll learn how to build various transformer-based NLP applications using the Python Transformers library.

This book covers the following exciting features: 
* Explore state-of-the-art NLP solutions with the Transformers library
* Train a language model in any language with any transformer architecture
* Fine-tune a pre-trained language model to perform several downstream tasks
* Select the right framework for the training, evaluation, and production of an end-to-end solution
* Get hands-on experience in using TensorBoard and Weights & Biases
* Visualize the internal representation of transformer models for interpretability

## Instructions and Navigations
All of the code is organized into folders. For example, Chapter03.

The code will look like the following:

```
import pandas as pd
imdb_df = pd.read_csv("IMDB Dataset.csv")
reviews = imdb_df.review.to_string(index=None)
with open("corpus.txt", "w") as f:
      f.writelines(reviews)

```

**Following is what you need for this book:**
This book is for deep learning researchers, hands-on NLP practitioners, as well as ML/NLP educators and students who want to start their journey with Transformers. Beginner-level machine learning knowledge and a good command of Python will help you get the best out of this book.

With the following software and hardware list you can run all code files present in the book (Chapter 1-11).
