Qualitative Pretrained Model Evaluation

Qualitative Pretrained Model Evaluation

A Streamlit app for comparing pretrained language models by eye. It names six models, from scientific, biomedical and legal ones to general BERT, and suits people choosing one.

About

What it is: Qualitative Pretrained Model Evaluation is a Streamlit app on Hugging Face Spaces. Its title points to judging pretrained language models by looking at their output rather than by scores. It names six models, including SciBERT, BioBERT, a legal BERT, and two general BERT sizes, so you can see how models trained on different text compare.

Who it suits: It suits people who choose a pretrained language model for a field and want to see how several candidates behave, and learners who want a short example of such a comparison page.

Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example
Machine learning | Model builders | Compare how field-specific and general models behave | Open the Space and try the same input on several models
Healthcare research | Text-mining researchers | Look at a biomedical model beside general ones | Check how BioBERT differs from bert-base-cased
Legal technology | Developers | Look at a legal model beside general ones | Check how the legal BERT differs from bert-base-cased

Anyone who needs numeric benchmarks or a ranking can skip it, since the source states none.

Where to use it:

• A web browser, straight from the Space page on Hugging Face
• Windows, macOS or Linux with Python, as a local copy

Use case | Who | What they get back
Compare models by eye | Model builders | Output from several named models on one page
Study a comparison app | Learners | A short app file that loads six named models

How to set it up: Using it online needs nothing. A local copy needs these first.

• Python and pip
• The huggingface_hub package, to fetch the files
• Streamlit, and the packages in requirements.txt

1. Install the Hugging Face Hub package.
2. Download the Space into a folder called Qualitative-pretrained-model-evaluation.
3. Move into that folder.
4. Install Streamlit, then the packages from requirements.txt.
5. Start the app with Streamlit.

pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download ajitrajasekharan/Qualitative-pretrained-model-evaluation --repo-type space --local-dir Qualitative-pretrained-model-evaluation
cd Qualitative-pretrained-model-evaluation
pip install streamlit
pip install -r requirements.txt
streamlit run app.py

How to use it: Open the Space page on Hugging Face and follow the controls it shows. For a local copy, run streamlit run app.py in the folder and open the page it starts.

Example: You open the Space page and enter a short sentence. The app runs it through the models it names and shows each model output so you can compare them side by side.

For newcomers and experts: If you are new, open the page and try one short sentence. A pretrained model is a program trained on a lot of text, and some are trained on science, medicine or law to suit those fields.

If you know the field, the six checkpoints cover scientific, biomedical, legal and general cased text. The source does not describe the evaluation method, so read app.py to see what is compared.

You enter text on the Space page
app.py runs it through the six models
Each model output shows on the page

Good to know:

• The README gives no description, so the exact comparison is clear only in app.py and on the page
• It loads six named models, so a local run needs room for them
• License: mit
• Cost to run: none named
• Data it reaches: the six models it names
