HPLT Bert for German
This is one of the encoder-only monolingual language models trained as a first release by the HPLT project. It is a so called masked language models. In particular, we used the modification of the classic BERT model named LTG-BERT.
A monolingual LTG-BERT model is trained for every major language in the HPLT 1.2 data release (75 models total).
All the HPLT encoder-only models use the same hyper-parameters, roughly following the BERT-base setup:
- hidden size: 768
- attention heads: 12
- layers: 12
- vocabulary size: 32768
Every model uses its own tokenizer trained on language-specific HPLT data. See sizes of the training corpora, evaluation results and more in our language model training report.

Example usage
This model currently needs a custom wrapper from modeling_ltgbert.py, you should therefore load the model with trust_remote_code=True.
import torch
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForMaskedLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("HPLT/hplt_bert_base_en")
model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("HPLT/hplt_bert_base_en", trust_remote_code=True)
mask_id = tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("[MASK]")
input_text = tokenizer("It's a beautiful[MASK].", return_tensors="pt")
output_p = model(**input_text)
output_text = torch.where(input_text.input_ids == mask_id, output_p.logits.argmax(-1), input_text.input_ids)
# should output: '[CLS] It's a beautiful place.[SEP]'
print(tokenizer.decode(output_text[0].tolist()))
The following classes are currently implemented: AutoModel, AutoModelMaskedLM, AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoModelForTokenClassification, AutoModelForQuestionAnswering and AutoModeltForMultipleChoice.
