PhilBerta

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

This model was trained using data from the Open Greek & Latin Project, the CLARIN corpus Greek Medieval Texts, the Patrologia Graeca, the Corpus Corporum, and Project Gutenberg.

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

Usage

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForMaskedLM

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

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

Evaluation Results

When fine-tuned on data from Universal Dependencies 2.10, PhilBerta achieves the following results on the Ancient Greek Perseus dataset:

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