NorBERT 3 small

The official release of a new generation of NorBERT language models described in paper NorBench — A Benchmark for Norwegian Language Models. Plese read the paper to learn more details about the model.

Other sizes:

• NorBERT 3 xs (15M)
• NorBERT 3 small (40M)
• NorBERT 3 base (123M)
• NorBERT 3 large (323M)

Generative NorT5 siblings:

• NorT5 xs (32M)
• NorT5 small (88M)
• NorT5 base (228M)
• NorT5 large (808M)

Example usage

This model currently needs a custom wrapper from modeling_norbert.py, you should therefore load the model with trust_remote_code=True.

import torch
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForMaskedLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("ltg/norbert3-small")
model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("ltg/norbert3-small", trust_remote_code=True)

mask_id = tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("[MASK]")
input_text = tokenizer("Nå ønsker de seg en[MASK] bolig.", return_tensors="pt")
output_p = model(**input_text)
output_text = torch.where(input_text.input_ids == mask_id, output_p.logits.argmax(-1), input_text.input_ids)

# should output: '[CLS] Nå ønsker de seg en ny bolig.[SEP]'
print(tokenizer.decode(output_text[0].tolist()))

The following classes are currently implemented: AutoModel, AutoModelMaskedLM, AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoModelForTokenClassification, AutoModelForQuestionAnswering and AutoModeltForMultipleChoice.
