ViGPT2 AIO

ViGPT2 AIO is a Vietnamese GPT-2 style causal language model pretrained for open-ended text generation and general Vietnamese language modeling.

This model was developed to support teaching and hands-on practice in the AIO course, while also serving as a general Vietnamese pretrained language model for experimentation and downstream adaptation.

Model Details

• Model name: ViGPT2 AIO
• Architecture: GPT-2
• Task: Causal language modeling / text generation
• Language: Vietnamese
• Library: Transformers
• Weights format: Safetensors

Training Data

The model was pretrained on a mixture of Vietnamese news and Vietnamese Wikipedia text.

Data Sources

• BKAINewsCorpus from bkai-foundation-models/BKAINewsCorpus
• Vietnamese Wikipedia collected through a custom crawling pipeline, then cleaned from raw wikitext into plain text

Data Processing

Before pretraining, the corpora were cleaned and deduplicated.

• The tokenizer was trained on the raw corpora:
  • bkai_train.parquet
  • vi_wiki_articles_clean.parquet
• The language model was pretrained on deduplicated versions of these corpora.
• In the final training mixture, the Vietnamese Wikipedia corpus was upweighted relative to the news corpus.

Training Mixture

The pretraining mixture used:

• bkai_train.parquet with weight 1
• vi_wiki_articles_clean.parquet with weight 3

Training Objective

The model was pretrained with a standard causal language modeling objective, where the model learns to predict the next token in a sequence.

Limitations

• The model may generate incorrect, nonsensical, or fabricated content.
• Outputs can reflect biases or artifacts present in the pretraining data.
• The model is not a verified factual source and should not be used without human validation in high-stakes settings.

Usage

import torch
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

repo_id = "VLAI-AIVN/vigpt2-aio"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(repo_id)
if tokenizer.pad_token is None:
    tokenizer.pad_token = tokenizer.eos_token

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(repo_id)
model.config.pad_token_id = tokenizer.pad_token_id

device = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
model = model.to(device).eval()

prompt = "Việt Nam là một đất nước"
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(device)

with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model.generate(
        **inputs,
        max_new_tokens=80,
        do_sample=True,
        temperature=0.8,
        top_p=0.9,
        repetition_penalty=1.1,
        pad_token_id=tokenizer.pad_token_id,
    )

print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
