## DeBERTa: Decoding-enhanced BERT with Disentangled Attention

[DeBERTa](https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.03654) improves the BERT and RoBERTa models using disentangled attention and enhanced mask decoder. With those two improvements, DeBERTa out perform RoBERTa on a majority of NLU tasks with 80GB training data. 

Please check the [official repository](https://github.com/microsoft/DeBERTa) for more details and updates.

This model is the base DeBERTa model fine-tuned with MNLI task

#### Fine-tuning on NLU tasks

We present the dev results on SQuAD 1.1/2.0 and MNLI tasks.

| Model             | SQuAD 1.1 | SQuAD 2.0 | MNLI-m |
|-------------------|-----------|-----------|--------|
| RoBERTa-base      | 91.5/84.6 | 83.7/80.5 | 87.6   |
| XLNet-Large       | -/-       | -/80.2    | 86.8   |
| **DeBERTa-base**  | 93.1/87.2 | 86.2/83.1 | 88.8   |
