What does this PR do?
Currently, language-modeling examples support passing a HF-datasets dataset as training data. However, this dataset needs to have a
train
andvalidation
split, which is not the case for many language-modeling datasets, which are just unstructured text. The updated scripts automatically partition thetrain
split to create avalidation
split if it doesn't exist already, and addsvalidation_split_percentage
argument to control the split ratio, set to 5% by default.
