🤗 + 📚 dbmdz DistilBERT model
In this repository the MDZ Digital Library team (dbmdz) at the Bavarian State Library open sources a German Europeana DistilBERT model 🎉
German Europeana DistilBERT
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.

Usage
With Transformers >= 4.3 our German Europeana DistilBERT model can be loaded like:
from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer
model_name = "dbmdz/distilbert-base-german-europeana-cased"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(model_name)
Huggingface model hub
All other German Europeana models are available on the Huggingface model hub.
