Training Details
Training Data
RoBERTaLexPT-base is pretrained from both data:
- LegalPT is a Portuguese legal corpus by aggregating diverse sources of up to 125GiB data.
- CrawlPT is a duplication of three Portuguese general corpora: brWaC, CC100-PT, OSCAR-2301.
Training Procedure
Our pretraining process was executed using the Fairseq library on a DGX-A100 cluster, utilizing a total of 2 Nvidia A100 80 GB GPUs. The complete training of a single configuration takes approximately three days.
This computational setup is similar to the work of BERTimbau, exposing the model to approximately 65 billion tokens during training.
Preprocessing
Following the approach of Lee et al. (2022), we deduplicated all subsets of the LegalPT Corpus using the MinHash algorithm and Locality Sensitive Hashing to find clusters of duplicate documents.
To ensure that domain models are not constrained by a generic vocabulary, we utilized the HuggingFace Tokenizers -- BPE algorithm to train a vocabulary for each pre-training corpus used.
Training Hyperparameters
The pretraining process involved training the model for 62,500 steps, with a batch size of 2048 sequences, each containing a maximum of 512 tokens. We employed the masked language modeling objective, where 15% of the input tokens were randomly masked. The optimization was performed using the AdamW optimizer with a linear warmup and a linear decay learning rate schedule.
We adopted the standard RoBERTa hyperparameters:
| Hyperparameter | RoBERTa-base |
|---|---|
| Number of layers | 12 |
| Hidden size | 768 |
| FFN inner hidden size | 3072 |
| Attention heads | 12 |
| Attention head size | 64 |
| Dropout | 0.1 |
| Attention dropout | 0.1 |
| Warmup steps | 6k |
| Peak learning rate | 4e-4 |
| Batch size | 2048 |
| Weight decay | 0.01 |
| Maximum training steps | 62.5k |
| Learning rate decay | Linear |
| AdamW $$\epsilon$$ | 1e-6 |
| AdamW $$\beta_1$$ | 0.9 |
| AdamW $$\beta_2$$ | 0.98 |
| Gradient clipping | 0.0 |
