Description
This is one of the smaller BERT models referenced in Well-Read Students Learn Better: On the Importance of Pre-training Compact Models. The smaller BERT models are intended for environments with restricted computational resources. They can be fine-tuned in the same manner as the original BERT models. However, they are most effective in the context of knowledge distillation, where the fine-tuning labels are produced by a larger and more accurate teacher.
How to use
...
embeddings = BertSentenceEmbeddings.pretrained("sent_small_bert_L2_512", "en") \
.setInputCols("sentence") \
.setOutputCol("sentence_embeddings")
nlp_pipeline = Pipeline(stages=[document_assembler, sentence_detector, embeddings])
pipeline_model = nlp_pipeline.fit(spark.createDataFrame([[""]]).toDF("text"))
result = pipeline_model.transform(spark.createDataFrame([['I hate cancer', "Antibiotics aren't painkiller"]], ["text"]))
