What is BioBERT v1.1?
BioBERT v1.1 is a domain-specific language representation model designed for biomedical text mining tasks. It's pre-trained on large-scale biomedical corpora, including PubMed abstracts and PMC full-text articles, building upon the architecture of BERT. This specialized training allows it to better understand and process biomedical terminology and concepts compared to general-purpose language models.
Implementation Details
The model utilizes the BERT architecture as its foundation but incorporates domain-specific training on biomedical texts. It maintains the original BERT's transformer-based architecture while adapting its vocabulary and representations to better suit biomedical language.
