# πŸ€— + πŸ“š dbmdz Turkish BERT model
In this repository the MDZ Digital Library team (dbmdz) at the Bavarian State
Library open sources a cased model for Turkish πŸŽ‰
# πŸ‡ΉπŸ‡· BERTurk
BERTurk is a community-driven cased BERT model for Turkish.
Some datasets used for pretraining and evaluation are contributed from the
awesome Turkish NLP community, as well as the decision for the model name: BERTurk.
## Stats
The current version of the model is trained on a filtered and sentence
segmented version of the Turkish [OSCAR corpus](https://traces1.inria.fr/oscar/),
a recent Wikipedia dump, various [OPUS corpora](http://opus.nlpl.eu/) and a
special corpus provided by [Kemal Oflazer](http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/ko/).
The final training corpus has a size of 35GB and 44,04,976,662 tokens.
Thanks to Google's TensorFlow Research Cloud (TFRC) we could train a cased model
on a TPU v3-8 for 2M steps.
## Model weights
Currently only PyTorch-[Transformers](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers)
compatible weights are available. If you need access to TensorFlow checkpoints,
please raise an issue!

## Usage
With Transformers >= 2.3 our BERTurk cased model can be loaded like:
```python
from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("dbmdz/bert-base-turkish-cased")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("dbmdz/bert-base-turkish-cased")
```
