# EstBERT
### What's this?
The EstBERT model is a pretrained BERT<sub>Base</sub> model exclusively trained on Estonian cased corpus on both 128 and 512 sequence length of data.
### How to use?
You can use the model transformer library both in tensorflow and pytorch version.
```
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForMaskedLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("tartuNLP/EstBERT")
model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("tartuNLP/EstBERT")
```
You can also download the pretrained model from here, [EstBERT_128]() [EstBERT_512]()
#### Dataset used to train the model
The EstBERT model is trained both on 128 and 512 sequence length of data. For training the EstBERT we used the [Estonian National Corpus 2017](https://metashare.ut.ee/repository/browse/estonian-national-corpus-2017/b616ceda30ce11e8a6e4005056b40024880158b577154c01bd3d3fcfc9b762b3/), which was the largest Estonian language corpus available at the time. It consists of four sub-corpora: Estonian Reference Corpus 1990-2008, Estonian Web Corpus 2013, Estonian Web Corpus 2017 and Estonian Wikipedia Corpus 2017.

### Why would I use?
Overall EstBERT performs better in parts of speech (POS), name entity recognition (NER), rubric, and sentiment classification tasks compared to mBERT and XLM-RoBERTa. The comparative results can be found below;
