## News 📢

* 🔥 **Fully compatible with 🤗HuggingFace**, it enables seamless execution of any Transformers/Diffusers models on MindSpore across all hardware platforms (GPU/Ascend/CPU).
    
    You may still invoke models through MindNLP as shown in the example code below:

    ```python
    from mindnlp.transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel

    tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("bert-base-uncased")
    model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("bert-base-uncased")

    inputs = tokenizer("Hello world!")
    outputs = model(**inputs)
    ```

    You can also directly use the native HuggingFace library(like transformers, diffusers, etc.) via the following approach as demonstrated in the example code:

    - For huggingface transformers:

    ```python
    import mindspore
    import mindnlp
    from transformers import pipeline

    chat = [
        {"role": "system", "content": "You are a sassy, wise-cracking robot as imagined by Hollywood circa 1986."},
        {"role": "user", "content": "Hey, can you tell me any fun things to do in New York?"}
    ]

    pipeline = pipeline(task="text-generation", model="Qwen/Qwen3-8B", ms_dtype=mindspore.bfloat16, device_map="auto")
    response = pipeline(chat, max_new_tokens=512)
    print(response[0]["generated_text"][-1]["content"])
    ```

    - For huggingface diffuers:

    ```python
    import mindspore
    import mindnlp
    from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline

    pipeline = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("stable-diffusion-v1-5/stable-diffusion-v1-5", ms_dtype=mindspore.float16)
    pipeline("An image of a squirrel in Picasso style").images[0]
    ```

Notice ⚠️: Due to differences in autograd and parallel execution mechanisms, any training or distributed execution code must utilize the interfaces provided by MindNLP.

## Installation

#### Install from Pypi

## Introduction

MindNLP is an open source NLP library based on MindSpore. It supports a platform for solving natural language processing tasks, containing many common approaches in NLP. It can help researchers and developers to construct and train models more conveniently and rapidly.

The master branch works with **MindSpore master**.

#### Major Features

- **Comprehensive data processing**: Several classical NLP datasets are packaged into friendly module for easy use, such as Multi30k, SQuAD, CoNLL, etc.
- **Friendly NLP model toolset**: MindNLP provides various configurable components. It is friendly to customize models using MindNLP.
- **Easy-to-use engine**: MindNLP simplified the complicated training process in MindSpore. It supports Trainer and Evaluator interfaces to train and evaluate models easily.

## Feedbacks and Contact

The dynamic version is still under development, if you find any issue or have an idea on new features, please don't hesitate to contact us via [Github Issues](https://github.com/mindspore-lab/mindnlp/issues).


## MindSpore NLP SIG

MindSpore NLP SIG (Natural Language Processing Special Interest Group) is the main development team of the MindNLP framework. It aims to collaborate with developers from both industry and academia who are interested in research, application development, and the practical implementation of natural language processing. Our goal is to create the best NLP framework based on the domestic framework MindSpore. Additionally, we regularly hold NLP technology sharing sessions and offline events. Interested developers can join our SIG group using the QR code below.

## Acknowledgement

MindSpore is an open source project that welcomes any contribution and feedback.  
We wish that the toolbox and benchmark could serve the growing research  
community by providing a flexible as well as standardized toolkit to re-implement existing methods  
and develop their own new semantic segmentation methods.
