# ScandiNLI - Natural Language Inference model for Scandinavian Languages

This model is a fine-tuned version of [NbAiLab/nb-bert-large](https://huggingface.co/NbAiLab/nb-bert-large) for Natural Language Inference in Danish, Norwegian Bokmål and Swedish.

It has been fine-tuned on a dataset composed of [DanFEVER](https://aclanthology.org/2021.nodalida-main.pdf#page=439) as well as machine translated versions of [MultiNLI](https://cims.nyu.edu/~sbowman/multinli/) and [CommitmentBank](https://doi.org/10.18148/sub/2019.v23i2.601) into all three languages, and machine translated versions of [FEVER](https://aclanthology.org/N18-1074/) and [Adversarial NLI](https://aclanthology.org/2020.acl-main.441/) into Swedish.

The three languages are sampled equally during training, and they're validated on validation splits of [DanFEVER](https://aclanthology.org/2021.nodalida-main.pdf#page=439) and machine translated versions of [MultiNLI](https://cims.nyu.edu/~sbowman/multinli/) for Swedish and Norwegian Bokmål, sampled equally.


## Quick start

You can use this model in your scripts as follows:

```python
>>> from transformers import pipeline
>>> classifier = pipeline(
...     "zero-shot-classification",
...     model="alexandrainst/nb-bert-large-nli-scandi",
... )
>>> classifier(
...     "Mexicansk bokser advarer Messi - 'Du skal bede til gud, om at jeg ikke finder dig'",
...     candidate_labels=['sundhed', 'politik', 'sport', 'religion'],
...     hypothesis_template="Dette eksempel er {}",
... )
{
    'labels': ['politik', 'helse', 'sport', 'religion'], 
    'scores': [0.303, 0.300, 0.204, 0.193],
    'sequence': 'Folkehelseinstituttets mest optimistiske anslag er at alle over 18 år er ferdigvaksinert innen midten av september.',
}
```
