Megatron FinBERT 1.3B

TurkuNLP describes this cased Finnish release as a 1.3-billion-parameter Megatron version of FinBERT. It is an encoder, not one of the group's GPT text-generation models.

Width is the main architectural distinction

The configuration uses megatron-bert with a feed-forward width of 8,192. The card gives document-classification results based on 10% of two datasets, but does not supply a complete pretraining account. Those narrow results are not a general ranking.Megatron FinBERT 1.3B: configurationMegatron FinBERT 1.3B: model card

Account for encoder memory

Practical guidance. Plan for the large hidden representations as well as the weight file. Use shorter batches when fine-tuning token labels, and compare against FinBERT Large before assuming that extra width improves the task.
