# DistilBERT
[DistilBERT](https://huggingface.co/papers/1910.01108) is pretrained by knowledge distillation to create a smaller model with faster inference and requires less compute to train. Through a triple loss objective during pretraining, language modeling loss, distillation loss, cosine-distance loss, DistilBERT demonstrates similar performance to a larger transformer language model.
You can find all the original DistilBERT checkpoints under the [DistilBERT](https://huggingface.co/distilbert) organization.
> [!TIP]
> Click on the DistilBERT models in the right sidebar for more examples of how to apply DistilBERT to different language tasks.
The example below demonstrates how to classify text with [`Pipeline`], [`AutoModel`], and from the command line.
<hfoptions id="usage">
<hfoption id="Pipeline">
```py
from transformers import pipeline
classifier = pipeline(
task="text-classification",
model="distilbert-base-uncased-finetuned-sst-2-english",
torch_dtype=torch.float16,
device=0
)
result = classifier("I love using Hugging Face Transformers!")
print(result)
# Output: [{'label': 'POSITIVE', 'score': 0.9998}]
```
</hfoption>
<hfoption id="AutoModel">
```py
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(
"distilbert/distilbert-base-uncased-finetuned-sst-2-english",
)
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(
"distilbert/distilbert-base-uncased-finetuned-sst-2-english",
torch_dtype=torch.float16,
device_map="auto",
attn_implementation="sdpa"
)
inputs = tokenizer("I love using Hugging Face Transformers!", return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
with torch.no_grad():
outputs = model(**inputs)
predicted_class_id = torch.argmax(outputs.logits, dim=-1).item()
predicted_label = model.config.id2label[predicted_class_id]
print(f"Predicted label: {predicted_label}")
```
</hfoption>
<hfoption id="transformers CLI">
```bash
echo -e "I love using Hugging Face Transformers!" | transformers run --task text-classification --model distilbert-base-uncased-finetuned-sst-2-english
```
</hfoption>
</hfoptions>
## Notes
- DistilBERT doesn't have `token_type_ids`, you don't need to indicate which token belongs to which segment. Just
separate your segments with the separation token `tokenizer.sep_token` (or `[SEP]`).
- DistilBERT doesn't have options to select the input positions (`position_ids` input). This could be added if
necessary though, just let us know if you need this option.
