ALBERT Persian
A Lite BERT for Self-supervised Learning of Language Representations for the Persian Language
میتونی بهش بگی برت_کوچولو
ALBERT-Persian is the first attempt on ALBERT for the Persian Language. The model was trained based on Google's ALBERT BASE Version 2.0 over various writing styles from numerous subjects (e.g., scientific, novels, news) with more than 3.9M documents, 73M sentences, and 1.3B words, like the way we did for ParsBERT.

Persian NER [ARMAN, PEYMA]
This task aims to extract named entities in the text, such as names and label with appropriate NER
classes such as locations, organizations, etc. The datasets used for this task contain sentences that are marked with IOB
format. In this format, tokens that are not part of an entity are tagged as ”O”
the ”B”
tag corresponds to the first word of an object, and the ”I”
tag corresponds to the rest of the terms of the same entity. Both ”B”
and ”I”
tags are followed by a hyphen (or underscore), followed by the entity category. Therefore, the NER task is a multi-class token classification problem that labels the tokens upon being fed a raw text. There are two primary datasets used in Persian NER, ARMAN
, and PEYMA
.
ARMAN
ARMAN dataset holds 7,682 sentences with 250,015 sentences tagged over six different classes.
