## Overview
**Language model:** gbert-large-sts

**Language:** German  
**Training data:** German STS benchmark train and dev set  
**Eval data:** German STS benchmark test set   
**Infrastructure**: 1x V100 GPU  
**Published**: August 12th, 2021

## Details
- We trained a gbert-large model on the task of estimating semantic similarity of German-language text pairs. The dataset is a machine-translated version of the [STS benchmark](https://ixa2.si.ehu.eus/stswiki/index.php/STSbenchmark), which is available [here](https://github.com/t-systems-on-site-services-gmbh/german-STSbenchmark).

## Hyperparameters
```
batch_size = 16
n_epochs = 4
warmup_ratio = 0.1
learning_rate = 2e-5
lr_schedule = LinearWarmup
```
## Performance
Stay tuned... and watch out for new papers on arxiv.org ;)
