# Model Card: BERT-IMDb

An in-domain BERT-base model, pre-trained from scratch on the IMDb dataset text.

## Model Details

### Description

This model is based on the [BERT base (uncased)](https://huggingface.co/google-bert/bert-base-uncased)
architecture and was pre-trained from scratch (in-domain) using the text in IMDb dataset, excluding its test split.
Only the masked language modeling (MLM) objective was used during pre-training.

- **Developed by:** [Cesar Gonzalez-Gutierrez](https://ceguel.es)
- **Funded by:** [ERC](https://erc.europa.eu)
- **Architecture:** BERT-base
- **Language:** English
- **License:** Apache 2.0
- **Base model:** [BERT base model (uncased)](https://huggingface.co/google-bert/bert-base-uncased)

### Checkpoints

Intermediate checkpoints from the pre-training process are available and can be accessed using specific tags,
which correspond to training epochs and steps:

| Epoch | Step | Tags | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 703 | epoch-1 | step-703 |
| 5 | 3516 | epoch-5 | step-3516 |
| 10 | 7033 | epoch-10 | step-7033 |
| 20 | 14066 | epoch-20 | step-14066 |
| 30 | 21100 | epoch-30 | step-21100 |
| 40 | 28133 | epoch-40 | step-28133 |
| 50 | 35166 | epoch-50 | step-35166 |
| 60 | 42200 | epoch-60 | step-42200 |
| 70 | 49233 | epoch-70 | step-49233 |
| 80 | 56240 | epoch-80 | step-56240 |

To load a model from a specific intermediate checkpoint, use the `revision` parameter with the corresponding tag:
```python
from transformers import AutoModelForMaskedLM

model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("<model-name>", revision="<checkpoint-tag>")
```
