# NetBERT 📶
<img align="left" src="illustration.jpg" width="150"/>
<br><br><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;NetBERT is a [BERT-base](https://huggingface.co/bert-base-cased) model further pre-trained on a huge corpus of computer networking text (~23Gb).
<br><br>
## Usage
You can use the raw model for masked language modeling (MLM), but it's mostly intended to be fine-tuned on a downstream task, especially one that uses the whole sentence to make decisions such as text classification, extractive question answering, or semantic search.
You can use this model directly with a pipeline for [masked language modeling](https://huggingface.co/tasks/fill-mask):
```python
from transformers import pipeline
unmasker = pipeline('fill-mask', model='antoinelouis/netbert')
unmasker("The nodes of a computer network may include [MASK].")
```
You can also use this model to [extract the features](https://huggingface.co/tasks/feature-extraction) of a given text:
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('antoinelouis/netbert')
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('antoinelouis/netbert')
text = "Replace me by any text you'd like."
encoded_input = tokenizer(text, return_tensors='pt')
output = model(**encoded_input)
```
## Documentation
Detailed documentation on the pre-trained model, its implementation, and the data can be found on [Github](https://github.com/antoiloui/netbert/blob/master/docs/index.md).
