# RoBERTa

[RoBERTa](https://huggingface.co/papers/1907.11692) improves BERT with new pretraining objectives, demonstrating [BERT](./bert) was undertrained and training design is important. The pretraining objectives include dynamic masking, sentence packing, larger batches and a byte-level BPE tokenizer.

You can find all the original RoBERTa checkpoints under the [Facebook AI](https://huggingface.co/FacebookAI) organization.

> [!TIP]
> Click on the RoBERTa models in the right sidebar for more examples of how to apply RoBERTa to different language tasks.

The example below demonstrates how to predict the `<mask>` token with [`Pipeline`], [`AutoModel`], and from the command line.

<hfoptions id="usage">
<hfoption id="Pipeline">

```python
from transformers import pipeline


pipeline = pipeline(
    task="fill-mask",
    model="FacebookAI/roberta-base",
    device=0
)
pipeline("Plants create <mask> through a process known as photosynthesis.")
```

</hfoption>
<hfoption id="AutoModel">

```python
import torch

from transformers import AutoModelForMaskedLM, AutoTokenizer


tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(
    "FacebookAI/roberta-base",
)
model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained(
    "FacebookAI/roberta-base",
    device_map="auto",
    attn_implementation="sdpa"
)
inputs = tokenizer("Plants create <mask> through a process known as photosynthesis.", return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model(**inputs)
    predictions = outputs.logits

masked_index = torch.where(inputs['input_ids'] == tokenizer.mask_token_id)[1]
predicted_token_id = predictions[0, masked_index].argmax(dim=-1)
predicted_token = tokenizer.decode(predicted_token_id)

print(f"The predicted token is: {predicted_token}")
```

</hfoption>
</hfoptions>

## Notes

- RoBERTa doesn't have `token_type_ids` so you don't need to indicate which token belongs to which segment. Separate your segments with the separation token `tokenizer.sep_token` or `</s>`.
