Label Studio for Hugging Face's Transformers

Website • Docs • Twitter • Join Slack Community

Transfer learning for NLP models by annotating your textual data without any additional coding.

This package provides a ready-to-use container that links together:

• Label Studio as annotation frontend
• Hugging Face's transformers as machine learning backend for NLP

Quick Usage

Install Label Studio and other dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

Create ML backend with BERT classifier

label-studio-ml init my-ml-backend --script models/bert_classifier.py
cp models/utils.py my-ml-backend/utils.py

# Start ML backend at http://localhost:9090
label-studio-ml start my-ml-backend

# Start Label Studio in the new terminal with the same python environment
label-studio start

1. Create a project with Choices and Text tags in the labeling config.
2. Connect the ML backend in the Project settings with http://localhost:9090

Create ML backend with BERT named entity recognizer

label-studio-ml init my-ml-backend --script models/ner.py
cp models/utils.py my-ml-backend/utils.py

# Start ML backend at http://localhost:9090
label-studio-ml start my-ml-backend

# Start Label Studio in the new terminal with the same python environment
label-studio start

1. Create a project with Labels and Text tags in the labeling config.
2. Connect the ML backend in the Project settings with http://localhost:9090

Training and inference

The browser opens at http://localhost:8080. Upload your data on Import page then annotate by selecting Labeling page. Once you've annotate sufficient amount of data, go to Model page and press Start Training button. Once training is finished, model automatically starts serving for inference from Label Studio, and you'll find all model checkpoints inside my-ml-backend/<ml-backend-id>/ directory.
