# HVU_GQ

**HHVU_GQ** is a project dedicated to sharing datasets and tools for **Question Generation Processing (NLP)**, developed and maintained by the research team at **Hung Vuong University (HVU), Phu Tho, Vietnam**.  
This project is supported by **Hung Vuong University, Phu Tho, Vietnam**, with the aim of advancing research and applications in low-resource language processing, particularly for the Vietnamese language.

## 📚 Overview

This repository enables you to:
1. Fine-tune the [VietAI/vit5-base](https://huggingface.co/datasets/DANGDOCAO/GeneratingQuestions) model on your own QA dataset.
2. Generate multiple, diverse questions given a user-provided text passage (context).

---

## 📁 Dataset Format

Your dataset must follow the **SQuAD v2.0** JSON structure:

```json
{
  "version": "v2.0",
  "data": [
    {
      "title": "Đồ uống nào của Việt Nam từng lọt top ngon nhất thế giới?",
      "paragraphs": [
        {
          "qas": [
            {
              "id": "q1_1",
              "question": "Đồ uống nào của Việt Nam từng lọt top ngon nhất thế giới?",
              "answers": [
                {
                  "text": "Theo bản đánh giá tháng 2/2023 của Taste Atlas...",
                  "answer_start": "Theo bản đánh giá tháng 2/2023 của Taste Atlas..."
                }
              ],
              "is_impossible": false
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}
```

**Required fields:**
- `title` → used as context
- `question` → target question
- `answers[0].text` → seed answer for training
- `is_impossible` → filter for valid QAs

**File name:** `30ktrain.json` (UTF-8)

## 📁 Datasets

This repository provides datasets for **training** and **evaluating** Vietnamese question generation models.

### 🔹 `DataTotalQCAtriples30k/`
- **`30ktrain.json`** → 30,000 QCA triples for training.

### 🔹 `Datatest1k/`
- **`testorgin1k.json`** → 1,000 examples for manual & automatic evaluation.

### 🔹 `Datatrain29k/`
- **`29kcorpustag.json`** → 29,000 preprocessed QCA triples.

> All files are UTF-8 encoded and ready for direct use in NLP pipelines.

## 📊 Evaluation Results

We performed **manual evaluation on 500 samples** and **automatic evaluation on 1,000 samples**.

| Evaluation Type  | Precision | Recall | F1-Score |
|------------------|-----------|--------|----------|
| Automatic (1000) | 0.85      | 0.83   | 0.84     |
| Manual (500)     | 0.88      | 0.86   | 0.87     |

## 🔧 Installation

Create a virtual environment and install dependencies:

### Windows (PowerShell)
```powershell
python -m venv .venv
.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install torch transformers datasets scikit-learn
```

### Linux / macOS
```bash
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install torch transformers datasets scikit-learn
```

---

## 🚀 Training (Fine-tuning)

Make sure `30ktrain.json` is in the same folder as `fine_tune_qg.py`.

Run:
```bash
python fine_tune_qg.py
```

**What happens:**
- Loads `30ktrain.json`
- Splits into 80% train / 20% validation
- Tokenizes using `T5Tokenizer`
- Fine-tunes `VietAI/vit5-base` for 3 epochs
- Saves model + tokenizer to `t5-viet-qg-finetuned/`

**Key training parameters** (edit in `fine_tune_qg.py` if needed):
- `per_device_train_batch_size`: 1
- `learning_rate`: 2e-4
- `num_train_epochs`: 3
- `max_input_length`: 512
- `max_target_length`: 64

---

## 💡 Generating Questions

Once training is done, use `generate_question.py` to generate new questions.

Ensure:
- `MODEL_DIR` → `t5-viet-qg-finetuned/`
- `DATA_PATH` → `30ktrain.json`

Run:
```bash
python generate_question.py
```

Steps:
1. Enter a context passage (Vietnamese)
2. Enter number of questions (default 20, max 200)
3. Script will:
   - Find best match in dataset by title similarity
   - Use matched answer + your context
   - Generate multiple unique questions with top-k & top-p sampling
4. Output lists generated questions.

---

## ⚙️ Generation Settings

In `generate_question.py`, tweak:
- `top_k` (default 60)
- `top_p` (default 0.95)
- `temperature` (default 0.9)
- `no_repeat_ngram_size` (default 3)
- `repetition_penalty` (default 1.12)
