Model card for RoBERT-small

language:

RoBERT-small

Pretrained BERT model for Romanian

Pretrained model on Romanian language using a masked language modeling (MLM) and next sentence prediction (NSP) objective. It was introduced in this paper. Three BERT models were released: RoBERT-small, RoBERT-base and RoBERT-large, all versions uncased.

Model	Weights	L	H	A	MLM accuracy	NSP accuracy
RoBERT-small	19M	12	256	8	0.5363	0.9687
RoBERT-base	114M	12	768	12	0.6511	0.9802
RoBERT-large	341M	24	1024	24	0.6929	0.9843

All models are available:

How to use

python

# tensorflow
from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer, TFAutoModel
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("readerbench/RoBERT-small")
model = TFAutoModel.from_pretrained("readerbench/RoBERT-small")
inputs = tokenizer("exemplu de propoziție", return_tensors="tf")
outputs = model(inputs)

# pytorch
from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("readerbench/RoBERT-small")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("readerbench/RoBERT-small")
inputs = tokenizer("exemplu de propoziție", return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model(**inputs)

Training data

The model is trained on the following compilation of corpora. Note that we present the statistics after the cleaning process.

Corpus	Words	Sentences	Size (GB)
Oscar	1.78B	87M	10.8
RoTex	240M	14M	1.5
RoWiki	50M	2M	0.3
Total	2.07B	103M	12.6
