Model Details
This is a RoBERTa model trained from scratch on medieval texts. The model is intended to be used as a fondation for other ML tasks on NLP and HTR environments.
The train dataset entails 650M of tokens coming from texts on classical and medieval latin; old french and old Spanish from a period ranging from 5th BC to 16th centuries.
Several big corpora were cleaned and transformed to be used during the training process :
| dataset | size | Lang | dates |
|---|---|---|---|
| CC100 [1] | 3,2Gb | la | 5th BC - 18th |
| Corpus Corporum [2] | 3,0Gb | la | 5th BC - 16th |
| CEMA [3] | 320Mb | la+fro | 9th - 15th |
| HOME-Alcar [4] | 38Mb | la+fro | 12th - 15th |
| BFM [5] | 34Mb | fro | 13th - 15th |
| AND [6] | 19Mb | fro | 13th - 15th |
| CODEA [7] | 13Mb | spa | 12th - 16th |
| ~6,5Gb | |||
| 650M tokens (4,5Gb)* |
- A significant overlapped quantity of text was detected across the corpora, specially on medieval collections. Besides, synthetic text ("Lorem ipsum dolorem...") was iteratively deleted.
