What is finbert-pretrain?

FinBERT is a specialized BERT model pre-trained specifically on financial communications text. It represents a significant advancement in financial natural language processing, trained on an extensive corpus of 4.9B tokens from various financial documents. The model is designed to understand and process financial text with high accuracy and domain-specific comprehension.

Implementation Details

The model is built upon the BERT architecture and has been pre-trained on three distinct types of financial documents: Corporate Reports (10-K & 10-Q) comprising 2.5B tokens, Earnings Call Transcripts with 1.3B tokens, and Analyst Reports containing 1.1B tokens. This diverse training data ensures comprehensive coverage of financial terminology and contexts.
