+This is a [MicroBERT](https://github.com/lgessler/microbert) model for Maltese.
+
+* Its suffix is **-mxp**, which means that it was pretrained using supervision from masked language modeling, XPOS tagging, and UD dependency parsing.
+* The unlabeled Maltese data was taken from a February 2022 dump of Maltese Wikipedia, totaling 2,113,223 tokens. 
+* The UD treebank [UD_Maltese-GSD](https://github.com/UniversalDependencies/UD_Maltese-MUDT), v2.9, totaling 44,162 tokens, was used for labeled data.
+
+Please see [the repository](https://github.com/lgessler/microbert) and 
+[the paper](https://github.com/lgessler/microbert/raw/master/MicroBERT__MRL_2022_.pdf) for more details.
