EasyNLP is a comprehensive PyTorch-based NLP toolkit from Alibaba that provides training, inference, and deployment for pre-trained language models, including knowledge distillation, few-shot learning, and multi-modality models. It integrates with Alibaba's PAI platform and supports Huggingface/Transformers models with scalable distributed training.

Use cases

• fine-tune pretrained transformer models for text classification
• distill large language models into smaller ones
• few-shot learning for NLP tasks
• train text-image retrieval models
• distributed training of NLP models on PyTorch
• deploy NLP models for production serving

When to choose

• you want an all-in-one NLP toolkit with training, inference, and deployment
• you need knowledge distillation or few-shot learning built in
• you use Alibaba PAI cloud infrastructure
• you want distributed training of Huggingface models

When to avoid

• you prefer the broader Huggingface ecosystem and community
• you need cutting-edge LLM features updated frequently
• you work outside the PyTorch/Python stack
