bert-base-buddhist-sanskrit

Version 2 of the BERT model described in the paper 'Embeddings models for Buddhist Sanskrit' published at LREC 2022 (https://aclanthology.org/2022.lrec-1.411/). Same training methodology has been used as for version 1, the only difference is that the model has been trained on a slightly bigger buddhist snaskrit corpus.

Funding

This work received funding from the NEH (HAA-277246-21).

Model description

The model has the bert-base architecture and configuration and was pretrained from scratch as a masked language model on the Sanskrit reference corpus, and fine-tuned on the smaller corpus of Buddhist Sanskrit.

How to use it

model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("Matej/bert-base-buddhist-sanskrit")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Matej/bert-base-buddhist-sanskrit", use_fast=True)

Intended uses & limitations
