What is eccobert-base-cased-v1?
ECCO-BERT is a specialized BERT model that has been exclusively trained on the Eighteenth Century Collections Online (ECCO) dataset. This model is designed specifically for processing and analyzing historical texts from 18th century United Kingdom publications. Built on the architecture of bert-base-cased, it maintains case sensitivity while being optimized for historical language understanding.
Implementation Details
The model follows the BERT base architecture while being specifically trained on historical documents. It maintains case sensitivity, which is crucial for historical text analysis where proper nouns and capitalization patterns differ from modern usage.
