cross from the left which Raphael Varane was unable to intercept as he slid back, leaving Coutinho to finish into an empty net.

# pegasus-sports-titles

This model is a fine-tuned pegasus on some **sports news articles scraped from the internet. (For educational purposes only)**. The model can generate titles for sports articles. Try it out using the inference API. 

## Model description

A Pegasus model tuned on generating scientific titles has been further fine-tuned to generate titles for sports articles. While training articles on **Tennis, Football (Soccer), Cricket , Athletics and Rugby** were used to generate titles. I experimented training the Tokenizer from scratch but it did not give good results compared to the pre-trained tokenizer. 

## Usage

```python
from transformers import pipeline
#Feel free to play around with the generation parameters.
#Reduce the beam width for faster inference
#Note that the maximum length for the generated titles is 64
gen_kwargs = {"length_penalty": 0.6, "num_beams":4, "num_return_sequences": 4,"num_beam_groups":4,"diversity_penalty":2.0}

pipe = pipeline("summarization", model="RajSang/pegasus-sports-titles")

#Change the article according to your wish

''' Output
Title 1 :

Coutinho's arrival sparks Villa comeback

Title 2 :

Philippe Coutinho marked his debut for Aston Villa with a goal and an assist as Steven Gerrard's side came from two goals down to draw with Manchester United.

Title 3 :

Steven Gerrard's first game in charge of Aston Villa ended in a dramatic draw against Manchester United - but it was the arrival of Philippe Coutinho that marked the night.

Title 4 :

Liverpool loanee Philippe Coutinho marked his first appearance for Aston Villa with two goals as Steven Gerrard's side came from two goals down to draw 2-2.'''

```

## Training procedure
While training, **short titles were combined with the subtitles for the articles to improve the quality of the generated titles and the subtitles were removed from the main body of the articles.**

##Limitations

In rare cases, if the opening few lines of a passage/article are descriptive enough, the model often just copies these lines instead of looking for information further down the articles, which may not be conducive in some cases.
