# ScandiBERT
Note note: The model has been updated on 2022-09-27
The model was trained on the data shown in the table below. Batch size was 8.8k, the model was trained for 72 epochs on 24 V100 cards for about 2 weeks.
| Language | Data | Size |
|-----------|---------------------------------------|--------|
| Icelandic | See IceBERT paper | 16 GB |
| Danish | Danish Gigaword Corpus (incl Twitter) | 4,7 GB |
| Norwegian | NCC corpus | 42 GB |
| Swedish | Swedish Gigaword Corpus | 3,4 GB |
| Faroese | FC3 + Sosialurinn + Bible | 69 MB |
Note: At an earlier date a half trained model went up here, it has since been removed. The model has since been updated.
This is a Scandinavian BERT model trained on a large collection of Danish, Faroese, Icelandic, Norwegian and Swedish text. It is currently the highest ranking model on the ScandEval leaderbord https://scandeval.github.io/pretrained/
