This is a [MicroBERT](https://github.com/lgessler/microbert) model for Tamil.
* Its suffix is **-mx**, which means that it was pretrained using supervision from masked language modeling and XPOS tagging.
* The unlabeled Tamil data was taken from a June 2022 dump of Tamil Wikipedia, downsampled to 1,429,735 tokens.
* The UD treebank [UD_Tamil-TTB](https://github.com/UniversalDependencies/UD_Tamil-TTB), v2.9, totaling 9,581 tokens, was used for labeled data.
Please see [the repository](https://github.com/lgessler/microbert) and
