Bert Base En Lt Cased

🚀 bert-base-en-lt-cased

We are sharing smaller versions of bert-base-multilingual-cased that handle a custom number of languages. These versions preserve the original accuracy by producing exactly the same representations as the original model, unlike distilbert-base-multilingual-cased.

🚀 Quick Start

We are sharing smaller versions of bert-base-multilingual-cased that can handle a specific number of languages. Different from distilbert-base-multilingual-cased, our versions generate exactly the same representations as the original model, thus maintaining the original accuracy.

For more information, please refer to our paper: Load What You Need: Smaller Versions of Multilingual BERT.

✨ Features

• Share smaller versions of multilingual BERT that handle a custom number of languages.
• Preserve the original accuracy by producing the same representations as the original model.

💻 Usage Examples

Basic Usage

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Geotrend/bert-base-en-lt-cased")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("Geotrend/bert-base-en-lt-cased")
