What is K-12BERT?
K-12BERT is a specialized BERT-based language model specifically designed for the K-12 education domain. The model was developed through continued pretraining of BERT on a custom-curated K-12Corpus, combining both open and proprietary educational resources. This approach bridges the gap in domain-specific language models for educational applications while leveraging existing BERT architecture knowledge.
Implementation Details
The model implements a Masked Language Modeling (MLM) objective and maintains BERT's original vocabulary. It's built using the transformers library and can be easily integrated into PyTorch workflows. The continued pretraining approach was chosen to optimize computational resources while preserving BERT's fundamental knowledge.
