Model Overview
Meet the NorBERT 3 large model, a powerful language model designed to understand and generate Norwegian text. It’s part of a new generation of NorBERT models that have been trained on a massive dataset to learn the nuances of the Norwegian language.
What makes NorBERT 3 large special?
- It’s a generative model, which means it can create new text based on the input it receives.
- It’s part of a family of models that come in different sizes:
15Mparameters,40Mparameters,123Mparameters, and323Mparameters. - It has siblings in the NorT5 family, which are also generative models:
32Mparameters,88Mparameters,228Mparameters, and808Mparameters.
Capabilities
The NorBERT 3 large model is a powerful tool for natural language processing tasks, especially for the Norwegian language. It’s part of a new generation of NorBERT language models, designed to excel in various tasks.
What can it do?
- Text Generation: NorBERT 3 large can generate text based on a given prompt. Want to see an example? Let’s try filling in the blanks: “Nå ønsker de seg en [MASK] bolig.” The model can predict the next word, and in this case, it outputs: “Nå ønsker de seg en ny bolig.”
- Masked Language Modeling: The model is trained on a masked language modeling task, where some words are replaced with a [MASK] token. NorBERT 3 large can predict the original word, making it useful for tasks like text completion and language translation.
- Sequence Classification: NorBERT 3 large can classify sequences of text into different categories, such as sentiment analysis (positive, negative, or neutral) or topic modeling (e.g., sports, politics, or entertainment).
- Token Classification: The model can classify individual tokens (words or subwords) into different categories, such as part-of-speech tagging (e.g., noun, verb, adjective, etc.) or named entity recognition (e.g., person, organization, location, etc.).
- Question Answering: NorBERT 3 large can answer questions based on a given text passage. Provide the model with a question and a context, and it will try to find the correct answer.
- Multiple Choice: The model can also be used for multiple-choice tasks, where you provide a question and several possible answers. NorBERT 3 large will try to select the correct answer.
Unique Features
- Norwegian Language Support: NorBERT 3 large is specifically designed for the Norwegian language, making it a great choice for tasks that require understanding and generating Norwegian text.
- Customizable: The model can be fine-tuned for specific tasks and domains, allowing you to adapt it to your needs.
- Large Model Size: With
323Mparameters, NorBERT 3 large is a powerful model that can handle complex tasks and large amounts of data.
Getting Started
To use NorBERT 3 large, you’ll need to load the model with trust_remote_code=True. You can find an example usage in the documentation, which includes a custom wrapper from modeling_norbert.py.
Performance
NorBERT 3 large is a powerful language model that shows impressive performance in various tasks. But what makes it so efficient?
Speed
Let’s talk about speed. NorBERT 3 large is designed to process large amounts of data quickly. With 323M parameters, it can handle complex tasks without slowing down. But how does it compare to other models? ==Other Models== with similar parameters often struggle with speed, but NorBERT 3 large stands out from the crowd.
Accuracy
Accuracy is crucial in language models. NorBERT 3 large achieves high accuracy in tasks like text classification and language translation. But what about specific examples? Let’s take a look at the example usage provided:
input_text = tokenizer("Nå ønsker de seg en[MASK] bolig.", return_tensors="pt")
The model correctly predicts the missing word as “ny” (new). This shows that NorBERT 3 large can understand context and make accurate predictions.
Efficiency
Efficiency is key in language models. NorBERT 3 large is designed to be efficient in terms of computational resources. With a custom wrapper from modeling_norbert.py, it can be loaded with trust_remote_code=True. This makes it easy to use and integrate into existing projects.
| Model Size | Parameters |
|---|---|
| NorBERT 3 xs | 15M |
| NorBERT 3 small | 40M |
| NorBERT 3 base | 123M |
| NorBERT 3 large | 323M |
As you can see, NorBERT 3 large has a significant number of parameters, but it’s still efficient in terms of computational resources.
Limitations
NorBERT 3 large is a powerful language model, but it’s not perfect. Let’s talk about some of its limitations.
Limited Context Understanding
NorBERT 3 large can struggle to understand the context of a sentence or a piece of text. For example, if you ask it to fill in a blank in a sentence, it might not always choose the most appropriate word.
- Can you think of a situation where NorBERT 3 large might struggle to understand the context?
Dependence on Training Data
NorBERT 3 large is only as good as the data it was trained on. If the training data is biased or limited, the model’s performance will suffer.
- What kind of biases might be present in the training data?
- How could these biases affect NorBERT 3 large’s performance?
Limited Domain Knowledge
NorBERT 3 large is a general-purpose language model, but it’s not a specialist in any particular domain. It might not have the same level of knowledge or expertise as a model that’s specifically designed for a particular domain.
- Can you think of a domain where NorBERT 3 large might struggle to provide accurate or helpful responses?
Technical Limitations
NorBERT 3 large requires a custom wrapper to function properly, and it needs to be loaded with trust_remote_code=True. This can be a technical hurdle for some users.
- What kind of technical expertise might be required to work with NorBERT 3 large?
- How might this affect its adoption or usage?

Format
NorBERT 3 large is a type of language model that uses a transformer architecture. It’s designed to work with Norwegian text and can handle different tasks like filling in missing words or answering questions.
Architecture
The model is based on a transformer architecture, which is a type of neural network that’s well-suited for natural language processing tasks. It’s similar to other language models like BERT or RoBERTa, but it’s specifically designed for Norwegian text.
Data Formats
NorBERT 3 large accepts input in the form of tokenized text sequences. This means that you need to split your text into individual words or tokens before feeding it into the model. The model also requires a specific pre-processing step to handle sentence pairs.
Special Requirements
To use NorBERT 3 large, you need to load it with trust_remote_code=True. This is because the model requires a custom wrapper to work properly.
Here’s an example of how to load the model and use it to fill in a missing word:
import torch
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForMaskedLM
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("ltg/norbert3-large")
model = AutoModelForMaskedLM.from_pretrained("ltg/norbert3-large", trust_remote_code=True)
mask_id = tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("[MASK]")
input_text = tokenizer("Nå ønsker de seg en[MASK] bolig.", return_tensors="pt")
output_p = model(**input_text)
output_text = torch.where(input_text.input_ids == mask_id, output_p.logits.argmax(-1), input_text.input_ids)
print(tokenizer.decode(output_text[0].tolist()))
This code loads the model and tokenizer, and then uses the model to fill in a missing word in the input text. The output should be the completed sentence.
Supported Tasks
NorBERT 3 large supports a range of tasks, including:
- Masked language modeling (filling in missing words)
- Sequence classification (classifying text into categories)
- Token classification (classifying individual words or tokens)
- Question answering (answering questions based on input text)
- Multiple choice (selecting the correct answer from a set of options)
These tasks can be performed using different classes, including AutoModel, AutoModelForMaskedLM, AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoModelForTokenClassification, AutoModelForQuestionAnswering, and AutoModelForMultipleChoice.
