FERNET-C5

FERNET-C5 (Flexible Embedding Representation NETwork) is a monolingual Czech BERT-base model pre-trained from 93GB of Czech Colossal Clean Crawled Corpus (C5). See our paper for details.

We released also a successor of this model based on the RoBERTa architecture fav-kky/FERNET-C5-RoBERTa.
