distilrubert-tiny-cased-conversational
Conversational DistilRuBERT-tiny (Russian, cased, 3‑layers, 264‑hidden, 12‑heads, 10.4M parameters) was trained on OpenSubtitles[1], Dirty, Pikabu, and a Social Media segment of Taiga corpus[2] (as Conversational RuBERT). It can be considered as tiny copy of Conversational DistilRuBERT-small.
Our DistilRuBERT-tiny is highly inspired by [3], [4] and architecture is very close to [5]. Namely, we use
- MLM loss (between token labels and student output distribution)
- MSE loss (between averaged student and teacher hidden states)
The key features are:
- unlike most of distilled language models, we didn't use KL loss during pre-training
- reduced vocabulary size (30K in tiny vs. 100K in base and small )
- two separate inputs for student: tokens obtained using student tokenizer (for MLM) and teacher tokens greedily splitted by student tokens (for MSE)
Here is comparison between teacher model (Conversational RuBERT
) and other distilled models.

DistilRuBERT-tiny was trained for about 100 hrs. on 7 nVIDIA Tesla P100-SXM2.0 16Gb.
We used PyTorchBenchmark
from transformers
to evaluate model's performance and compare it with other pre-trained language models for Russian. All tests were performed on Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2698 v4 @ 2.20GHz and nVIDIA Tesla P100-SXM2.0 16Gb.

To evaluate model quality, we fine-tuned DistilRuBERT-tiny on classification (RuSentiment, ParaPhraser), NER and question answering data sets for Russian and obtained scores very similar to the Conversational DistilRuBERT-small.
