# ERNIE

[ERNIE1.0](https://huggingface.co/papers/1904.09223), [ERNIE2.0](https://ojs.aaai.org/index.php/AAAI/article/view/6428),
[ERNIE3.0](https://huggingface.co/papers/2107.02137), [ERNIE-Gram](https://huggingface.co/papers/2010.12148), [ERNIE-health](https://huggingface.co/papers/2110.07244) are a series of powerful models proposed by baidu, especially in Chinese tasks.

ERNIE (Enhanced Representation through kNowledge IntEgration) is designed to learn language representation enhanced by knowledge masking strategies, which includes entity-level masking and phrase-level masking.

Other ERNIE models released by baidu can be found at [Ernie 4.5](./ernie4_5), and [Ernie 4.5 MoE](./ernie4_5_moe).

> [!TIP]
> This model was contributed by [nghuyong](https://huggingface.co/nghuyong), and the official code can be found in [PaddleNLP](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleNLP) (in PaddlePaddle).

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="nghuyong/ernie-3.0-xbase-zh"
)

pipeline("巴黎是[MASK]国的首都。")
```

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

```python
import torch

from transformers import AutoModelForMaskedLM, AutoTokenizer


tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(
    "nghuyong/ernie-3.0-xbase-zh",
)
model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained(
    "nghuyong/ernie-3.0-xbase-zh",
    device_map="auto"
)
inputs = tokenizer("巴黎是[MASK]国的首都。", 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}")
```
