🤗 + 📚 dbmdz BERT models

In this repository the MDZ Digital Library team (dbmdz) at the Bavarian State Library open sources German Europeana BERT models 🎉

German Europeana BERT

We use the open source Europeana newspapers that were provided by The European Library. The final training corpus has a size of 51GB and consists of 8,035,986,369 tokens.

Detailed information about the data and pretraining steps can be found in this repository.

Model weights

Currently only PyTorch-Transformers compatible weights are available. If you need access to TensorFlow checkpoints, please raise an issue!

Results

For results on Historic NER, please refer to this repository.

Usage

With Transformers >= 2.3 our German Europeana BERT models can be loaded like:

from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("dbmdz/bert-base-german-europeana-cased")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("dbmdz/bert-base-german-europeana-cased")

Huggingface model hub

All models are available on the Huggingface model hub.
