# BART (large-sized model)
BART model pre-trained on English language. It was introduced in the paper [BART: Denoising Sequence-to-Sequence Pre-training for Natural Language Generation, Translation, and Comprehension](https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.13461) by Lewis et al. and first released in [this repository](https://github.com/pytorch/fairseq/tree/master/examples/bart).
Disclaimer: The team releasing BART did not write a model card for this model so this model card has been written by the Hugging Face team.
## Model description
BART is a transformer encoder-encoder (seq2seq) model with a bidirectional (BERT-like) encoder and an autoregressive (GPT-like) decoder. BART is pre-trained by (1) corrupting text with an arbitrary noising function, and (2) learning a model to reconstruct the original text.
BART is particularly effective when fine-tuned for text generation (e.g. summarization, translation) but also works well for comprehension tasks (e.g. text classification, question answering).
## Intended uses & limitations
You can use the raw model for text infilling. However, the model is mostly meant to be fine-tuned on a supervised dataset. See the [model hub](https://huggingface.co/models?search=bart) to look for fine-tuned versions on a task that interests you.
### How to use
Here is how to use this model in tf_transformers:
```python
from tf_transformers.models import BartModel
from transformers import BartTokenizer
tokenizer = BartTokenizer.from_pretrained('facebook/bart-large')
model = BartModel.from_pretrained('facebook/bart-large')
inputs_tf = {}
inputs = tokenizer("Hello, my dog is cute", return_tensors="pt")
inputs_tf["encoder_input_ids"] = inputs["input_ids"]
inputs_tf["encoder_input_mask"] = inputs["attention_mask"]
inputs_tf["decoder_input_ids"] = decoder_input_ids
outputs_tf = model(inputs_tf)
```
