BERT: Pre-training of Deep Bidirectional Transformers for Language Understanding

BERT: Pre-training of Deep Bidirectional Transformers for Language Understanding

? Description:
BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) is a powerful transformer-based machine learning model developed by Google AI for natural language understanding. Unlike previous models, BERT is deeply bidirectional, meaning it reads text both left-to-right and right-to-left to understand the full context of a word in a sentence.

This repository contains TensorFlow code and pre-trained checkpoints for the BERT model, as described in the paper:
? BERT: Pre-training of Deep Bidirectional Transformers for Language Understanding
(arXiv:1810.04805)

Key Features

  • ? Bidirectional Contextual Understanding
  • Reads entire sequences in both directions for more accurate understanding.
  • ? Pre-trained Models
  • Several BERT models are available (e.g., BERT-Base, BERT-Large) trained on BooksCorpus + English Wikipedia.
  • ? Masked Language Modeling (MLM)
  • Trains by predicting randomly masked words within a sentence.
  • ? Next Sentence Prediction (NSP)
  • Trains the model to understand relationships between sentence pairs.
  • ? Fine-Tuning Ready
  • Easily fine-tuned on downstream tasks like:
  • Question Answering (SQuAD)
  • Sentiment Analysis
  • Named Entity Recognition (NER)
  • Natural Language Inference (NLI)
  • ?๏ธ TensorFlow Implementation
  • Includes training code, inference scripts, and model export utilities.
