turkish-medium-bert-uncased
This is a Turkish Medium uncased BERT model, developed to fill the gap for small-sized BERT models for Turkish. Since this model is uncased: it does not make a difference between turkish and Turkish.
⚠ Uncased use requires manual lowercase conversion
Don't use the do_lower_case = True flag with the tokenizer. Instead, convert your text to lower case as follows:
text.replace("I", "ı").lower()
This is due to a known issue with the tokenizer.
Be aware that this model may exhibit biased predictions as it was trained primarily on crawled data, which inherently can contain various biases.
Other relevant information can be found in the paper.
Example Usage
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, BertForMaskedLM
from transformers import pipeline
model = BertForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("ytu-ce-cosmos/turkish-medium-bert-uncased")
# or
# model = BertForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("ytu-ce-cosmos/turkish-medium-bert-uncased", from_tf = True)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("ytu-ce-cosmos/turkish-medium-bert-uncased")
unmasker = pipeline('fill-mask', model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer)
unmasker("gelirken bir litre [MASK] aldım.")
