IV-Electra

IV-Electra

IV-Electra is a 17 million-parameter model, trained on the Vācaspati literary dataset and IndicCorpv1.0 (Bangla subset).

Model Details

• Architecture: Electra-small (but reduced to 17 M parameters)
• Pretraining Corpus: Vācaspati — a curated Bangla literary corpus
• Parameter Count: 17 M (≈ 1/7th the size of BERT-base)
• Tokenizer: WordPiece, vocabulary size 50 K

Usage Example

from transformers import BertTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification

tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("Vacaspati/IV-Electra")
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("Vacaspati/IV-Electra")
