DistilBERT with a second step of distillation

Model description

This model replicates the "DistilBERT (D)" model from Table 2 of the DistilBERT paper. In this approach, a DistilBERT student is fine-tuned on SQuAD v1.1, but with a BERT model (also fine-tuned on SQuAD v1.1) acting as a teacher for a second step of task-specific distillation.

In this version, the following pre-trained models were used:

Student: distilbert-base-uncased
Teacher: lewtun/bert-base-uncased-finetuned-squad-v1

Training data

This model was trained on the SQuAD v1.1 dataset which can be obtained from the datasets library as follows:

python

from datasets import load_dataset
squad = load_dataset('squad')

Training procedure

Eval results

	Exact Match	F1
DistilBERT paper	79.1	86.9
Ours	78.4	86.5

The scores were calculated using the squad metric from datasets.
