bartpho-word

Two BARTpho versions BARTpho-syllable and BARTpho-word are the first public large-scale monolingual sequence-to-sequence models pre-trained for Vietnamese. BARTpho uses the "large" architecture and pre-training scheme of the sequence-to-sequence denoising model BART, thus especially suitable for generative NLP tasks. Experiments on a downstream task of Vietnamese text summarization show that in both automatic and human evaluations, BARTpho outperforms the strong baseline mBART and improves the state-of-the-art.

The general architecture and experimental results of BARTpho can be found in our paper:
