ALBERT Persian

A Lite BERT for Self-supervised Learning of Language Representations for the Persian Language

میتونی بهش بگی برت_کوچولو

ALBERT-Persian is the first attempt on ALBERT for the Persian Language. The model was trained based on Google's ALBERT BASE Version 2.0 over various writing styles from numerous subjects (e.g., scientific, novels, news) with more than 3.9M documents, 73M sentences, and 1.3B words, like the way we did for ParsBERT.
