# Model Description
TinyClinicalBERT is a distilled version of the [BioClinicalBERT](https://huggingface.co/emilyalsentzer/Bio_ClinicalBERT) which is distilled for 3 epochs using a total batch size of 192 on the MIMIC-III notes dataset.
# Distillation Procedure
This model uses a unique distillation method called ‘transformer-layer distillation’ which is applied on each layer of the student to align the attention maps and the hidden states of the student with those of the teacher.
# Architecture and Initialisation
This model uses 4 hidden layers with a hidden dimension size and an embedding size of 768 resulting in a total of 15M parameters. Due to the model's small hidden dimension size, it uses random initialisation.
# Citation
If you use this model, please consider citing the following paper:
