ALBERT-Persian

A Lite BERT for Self-supervised Learning of Language Representations for the Persian Language

میتونی بهش بگی برت_کوچولو

Introduction

ALBERT-Persian trained on a massive amount of public corpora ( Persian Wikidumps , MirasText ) and six other manually crawled text data from a various type of websites ( BigBang Page scientific , Chetor lifestyle , Eligasht itinerary , Digikala digital magazine , Ted Talks general conversational , Books novels, storybooks, short stories from old to the contemporary era ).

Please follow the ALBERT-Persian repo for the latest information about previous and current models.

Intended uses & limitations

You can use the raw model for either masked language modeling or next sentence prediction, but it's mostly intended to be fine-tuned on a downstream task. See the model hub to look for fine-tuned versions on a task that interests you.

How to use

• for using any type of Albert you have to install sentencepiece
• run this in your notebook !pip install -q sentencepiece

from transformers import AutoConfig, AutoTokenizer, TFAutoModel

config = AutoConfig.from_pretrained("m3hrdadfi/albert-fa-base-v2")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("m3hrdadfi/albert-fa-base-v2")
model = TFAutoModel.from_pretrained("m3hrdadfi/albert-fa-base-v2")

text = "ما در هوشواره معتقدیم با انتقال صحیح دانش و آگاهی، همه افراد می‌توانند از ابزارهای هوشمند استفاده کنند. شعار ما هوش مصنوعی برای همه است."
tokenizer.tokenize(text)

>>> ['▁ما', '▁در', '▁هوش', 'واره', '▁معتقد', 'یم', '▁با', '▁انتقال', '▁صحیح', '▁دانش', '▁و', '▁اگاه', 'ی', '،', '▁همه', '▁افراد', '▁می', '▁توانند', '▁از', '▁ابزارهای', '▁هوشمند', '▁استفاده', '▁کنند', '.', '▁شعار', '▁ما', '▁هوش', '▁مصنوعی', '▁برای', '▁همه', '▁است', '.']

from transformers import AutoConfig, AutoTokenizer, AutoModel

config = AutoConfig.from_pretrained("m3hrdadfi/albert-fa-base-v2")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("m3hrdadfi/albert-fa-base-v2")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("m3hrdadfi/albert-fa-base-v2")

Training

ALBERT-Persian is the first attempt on ALBERT for the Persian Language. The model was trained based on Google's ALBERT BASE Version 2.0 over various writing styles from numerous subjects (e.g., scientific, novels, news) with more than 3.9M documents, 73M sentences, and 1.3B words, like the way we did for ParsBERT .

Goals

Objective goals during training are as below (after 140K steps).
