    How-it-works

    How does it work?

    SlovakBERT is an artificial neural network trained to understand natural language. It is the first modern large-scale model for the Slovak language. It was trained using a very big amount of texts from the Web on powerful hardware. This huge corpus is a snapshot of how Slovak is used in practice today. Models like SlovakBERT are used nowadays in various AI applications because of their amazing linguistic capabilities. They can be easily adapted to solve a variety of NLP tasks such as document classification or sentiment analysis with great accuracy based on a relatively small amount of additional training data.

    Industry

    SlovakBERT is an open-source model that can be used to tackle your Slovak NLP challenges. The model is trained with a general Slovak Web-based corpus, but it can be easily adapted to new domains and to solve new tasks. Our benchmarking shows that the model achieves state-of-the-art (i.e. the best from all known) results for Slovak language. SlovakBERT can handle: text classification, entity recognition, token classification, parsing, modeling semantic similarity and many other tasks.

    research

    Research

    SlovakBERT can be used for text analytics in academic research as well. We plan to use it to study biases, disinformation, hate speech and other antisocial forms of behavior in Slovak language. You can learn more about our NLP research from our NLP Team. You can utilize its linguistic capabilities to help you with your research as well. The model itself is open-source, but please cite1 our work and let us know what you have achieved with SlovakBERT.
