distilrubert-base-cased-conversational
Conversational DistilRuBERT (Russian, cased, 6‑layer, 768‑hidden, 12‑heads, 135.4M parameters) was trained on OpenSubtitles[1], Dirty, Pikabu, and a Social Media segment of Taiga corpus[2] (as Conversational RuBERT).
Our DistilRuBERT was highly inspired by [3], [4]. Namely, we used
- KL loss (between teacher and student output logits)
- MLM loss (between tokens labels and student output logits)
- Cosine embedding loss between mean of two consecutive hidden states of the teacher and one hidden state of the student
The model was trained for about 100 hrs. on 8 nVIDIA Tesla P100-SXM2.0 16Gb.
To evaluate improvements in the inference speed, we ran teacher and student models on random sequences with seq_len=512, batch_size = 16 (for throughput) and batch_size=1 (for latency). All tests were performed on Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2698 v4 @ 2.20GHz and nVIDIA Tesla P100-SXM2.0 16Gb.
Model | Size, Mb. | CPU latency, sec. | GPU latency, sec. | CPU throughput, samples/sec. | GPU throughput, samples/sec. |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Teacher (RuBERT-base-cased-conversational) | 679 | 0.655 | 0.031 | 0.3754 | 36.4902 |
Student (DistilRuBERT-base-cased-conversational) | 517 | 0.3285 | 0.0212 | 0.5803 | 52.2495 |
