This model is a downstream optimization of [```vuiseng9/bert-base-squadv1-block-pruning-hybrid-filled-lt```](https://huggingface.co/vuiseng9/bert-base-squadv1-block-pruning-hybrid-filled-lt) using [OpenVINO/NNCF](https://github.com/openvinotoolkit/nncf). Applied optimization includes:

1. NNCF Quantize-Aware Training - Symmetric 8-bit for both weight and activation on all learnable layers.
2. Custom distillation with large model ```bert-large-uncased-whole-word-masking-finetuned-squad```
