# DistilBERT base multilingual model (cased)
|
| 9 |
+
|
| 10 |
+
This model is a distilled version of the [BERT base multilingual model](bert-base-multilingual-cased). The code for the distillation process can be found
|
| 11 |
+
[here](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/examples/distillation). This model is cased: it does make a difference between english and English.
|
| 12 |
+
|
| 13 |
+
The model is trained on the concatenation of Wikipedia in 104 different languages listed [here](https://github.com/google-research/bert/blob/master/multilingual.md#list-of-languages).
|
| 14 |
+
The model has 6 layers, 768 dimension and 12 heads, totalizing 134M parameters (compared to 177M parameters for mBERT-base).
|
| 15 |
+
On average DistilmBERT is twice as fast as mBERT-base.
|
| 16 |
+
|
| 17 |
+
We encourage to check [BERT base multilingual model](bert-base-multilingual-cased) to know more about usage, limitations and potential biases.
