With reference to #1558
When using a RoBERTa model for doing prediction, when the model is loaded using
ClassificationModel()
it prompts a warning stating,When prediction is performed on text data, if the number of records are a little more than a handful, the prediction progress bar takes infinite execution.
The issue occurs because in the
classification_model.py
file under theClassificationModel
class, there are two arguments that concern with multiprocessing, them being,args.use_multiprocessing
andargs.use_multiprocessing_for_evaluation
. While one is set to False by default, the other remains to be True,as can be seen in the screenshot attached:To be able to perform prediction by successfully disabling multiprocessing, we need to disable
args.use_multiprocessing_for_evaluation = False
and it should work fine. The approach has been tested locally and has proven to be working. Screenshot attached:
