What is gpt2-small-spanish?
GPT2-small-spanish is a state-of-the-art language model specifically designed for Spanish text generation. Built upon the architecture of GPT-2 small, this model represents a significant advancement in Spanish natural language processing through transfer learning and fine-tuning techniques.
Implementation Details
The model was trained using a sophisticated approach involving transfer learning from the English pre-trained GPT-2 small model. The training process spanned approximately 70 hours using four NVIDIA GTX 1080-Ti GPUs with 11GB of DDR5 memory, processing around 3GB of curated Spanish Wikipedia data. The implementation leverages Hugging Face's Transformers and Tokenizers libraries, integrated with the fastai v2 Deep Learning framework.
