Intended uses & limitations

The raw model can be used for the usual tasks of masked language modeling or next sentence prediction. It is also often fine-tuned on a downstream task to improve its performance in a specific domain/task.

How to use

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForMaskedLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("AI-Nordics/bert-large-swedish-cased")
model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("AI-Nordics/bert-large-swedish-cased")
