About Table Question Answering
Use Cases
SQL execution
You can use the Table Question Answering models to simulate SQL execution by inputting a table.
Table Question Answering
Table Question Answering models are capable of answering questions based on a table.
Task Variants
This place can be filled with variants of this task if there's any.
Inference
You can infer with TableQA models using the 🤗 Transformers library.
from transformers import pipeline
import pandas as pd
# prepare table + question
data = {"Actors": ["Brad Pitt", "Leonardo Di Caprio", "George Clooney"], "Number of movies": ["87", "53", "69"]}
table = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(data)
question = "how many movies does Leonardo Di Caprio have?"
# pipeline model
# Note: you must to install torch-scatter first.
tqa = pipeline(task="table-question-answering", model="google/tapas-large-finetuned-wtq")
# result
print(tqa(table=table, query=question)['cells'][0])
#53
