Introduction to the BERT Model

Learn what BERT is and how it differs from the other embedding models.

BERT stands for Bidirectional Encoder Representation from Transformer. It is the state-of-the-art embedding model published by Google. It has created a major breakthrough in the field of NLP by providing greater results in many NLP tasks, such as question answering, text generation, sentence classification, and many more besides. One of the major reasons for the success of BERT is that it is a context-based embedding model, unlike other popular embedding models, such as word2vec, which are context-free.
