LaBerta

The paper Exploring Language Models for Classical Philology is the first effort to systematically provide state-of-the-art language models for Classical Philology. LaBerta is a RoBerta-base sized, monolingual, encoder-only variant.

This model was trained on the Corpus Corporum.

Further information can be found in our paper or in our GitHub repository.

Usage

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForMaskedLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('bowphs/LaBerta')
model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained('bowphs/LaBerta')

Please check out the awesome Hugging Face tutorials on how to fine-tune our models.

Evaluation Results

When fine-tuned on PoS data from EvaLatin 2022, LaBerta achieves the following results:

Task	Classical	Cross-genre	Cross-time
	98.11	96.73	93.33
