# Uses
 
 
## Direct Use
 
This model can be used for the task of Feature Extraction
 
## Downstream Use [Optional]
 
More information needed
 
## Out-of-Scope Use
 
The model should not be used to intentionally create hostile or alienating environments for people. 
 
# Bias, Risks, and Limitations
 
Significant research has explored bias and fairness issues with language models (see, e.g., [Sheng et al. (2021)](https://aclanthology.org/2021.acl-long.330.pdf) and [Bender et al. (2021)](https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3442188.3445922)). Predictions generated by the model may include disturbing and harmful stereotypes across protected classes; identity characteristics; and sensitive, social, and occupational groups.
 
 
## Recommendations
 
Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model. More information needed for further recommendations.
 
 
# Training Details
 
## Training Data
The model creators note in the [associated paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1901.08746.pdf)
> We used the BERTBASE model pre-trained on English Wikipedia and BooksCorpus for 1M steps. BioBERT v1.0 (þ PubMed þ PMC) is the version of BioBERT (þ PubMed þ PMC) trained for 470 K steps. When using both the PubMed and PMC corpora, we found that 200K and 270K pre-training steps were optimal for PubMed and PMC, respectively. We also used the ablated versions of BioBERT v1.0, which were pre-trained on only PubMed for 200K steps (BioBERT v1.0 (þ PubMed)) and PMC for 270K steps (BioBERT v1.0 (þ PMC))
 
## Training Procedure
 
### Preprocessing
 The model creators note in the [associated paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1901.08746.pdf)
> We pre-trained BioBERT using Naver Smart Machine Learning (NSML) (Sung et al., 2017), which is utilized for large-scale experiments that need to be run on several GPUs
 
### Speeds, Sizes, Times
 The model creators note in the [associated paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1901.08746.pdf)
>  The maximum sequence length was fixed to 512 and the mini-batch size was set to 192, resulting in 98 304 words per iteration.
