 These implementations have been tested on several datasets (see the example scripts) and should match the performances of the original implementations (e.g. ~93 F1 on SQuAD for BERT Whole-Word-Masking, ~88 F1 on RocStories for OpenAI GPT, ~18.3 perplexity on WikiText 103 for Transformer-XL, ~0.916 Peason R coefficient on STS-B for XLNet). You can find more details on the performances in the Examples section of the [documentation](https://huggingface.co/pytorch-transformers/examples.html).

+# DistilBERT
+
+This folder contains the original code used to train DistilBERT as well as examples showcasing how to use DistilBERT.
+
+## What is DistilBERT
+
+DistilBERT stands for Distillated-BERT. DistilBERT is a small, fast, cheap and light Transformer model based on Bert architecture. It has 40% less parameters than `bert-base-uncased`, runs 60% faster while preserving over 95% of Bert's performances as measured on the GLUE language understanding benchmark. DistilBERT is trained using knowledge distillation, a technique to compress a large model called the teacher into a smaller model called the student. By distillating Bert, we obtain a smaller Transformer model that bears a lot of similarities with the original BERT model while being lighter, smaller and faster to run. DistilBERT is thus an interesting option to put large-scaled trained Transformer model into production.
+
+For more information on DistilBERT, please refer to our [detailed blog post](https://medium.com/huggingface/smaller-faster-cheaper-lighter-introducing-distilbert-a-distilled-version-of-bert-8cf3380435b5
+).
+
+## How to use DistilBERT
+
+PyTorch-Transformers includes two pre-trained DistilBERT models, currently only provided for English (we are investigating the possibility to train and release a multilingual version of DistilBERT):
+
+- `distilbert-base-uncased`: DistilBERT English language model pretrained on the same data used to pretrain Bert (concatenation of the Toronto Book Corpus and full English Wikipedia) using distillation with the supervision of the `bert-base-uncased` version of Bert. The model has 6 layers, 768 dimension and 12 heads, totalizing 66M parameters.
+- `distilbert-base-uncased-distilled-squad`: A finetuned version of `distilbert-base-uncased` finetuned using (a second step of) knwoledge distillation on SQuAD 1.0. This model reaches a F1 score of 86.2 on the dev set (for comparison, Bert `bert-base-uncased` version reaches a 88.5 F1 score).
+
+Using DistilBERT is very similar to using BERT. DistilBERT share the same tokenizer as BERT's `bert-base-uncased` even though we provide a link to this tokenizer under the `DistilBertTokenizer` name to have a consistent naming between the library models.
+
+```python
+tokenizer = DistilBertTokenizer.from_pretrained('distilbert-base-uncased')
+model = DistilBertModel.from_pretrained('distilbert-base-uncased')
+
+input_ids = torch.tensor(tokenizer.encode("Hello, my dog is cute")).unsqueeze(0)
+outputs = model(input_ids)
+last_hidden_states = outputs[0]  # The last hidden-state is the first element of the output tuple
+```
+
+## How to train DistilBERT
+
+In the following, we will explain how you can train your own compressed model.
+
+### A. Preparing the data
+
+The weights we release are trained using a concatenation of Toronto Book Corpus and English Wikipedia (same training data as the English version of BERT).
+
+To avoid processing the data several time, we do it once and for all before the training. From now on, will suppose that you have a text file `dump.txt` which contains one sequence per line (a sequence being composed of one of several coherent sentences).
+
+First, we will binarize the data, i.e. tokenize the data and convert each token in an index in our model's vocabulary.
+
+```bash
+python scripts/binarized_data.py \
+    --file_path data/dump.txt \
+    --bert_tokenizer bert-base-uncased \
+    --dump_file data/binarized_text
+```
+
+Our implementation of masked language modeling loss follows [XLM](https://github.com/facebookresearch/XLM)'s one and smoothes the probability of masking with a factor that put more emphasis on rare words. Thus we count the occurences of each tokens in the data:
+
+```bash
+python scripts/token_counts.py \
+    --data_file data/binarized_text.bert-base-uncased.pickle \
+    --token_counts_dump data/token_counts.bert-base-uncased.pickle
+```
+
+### B. Training
+
+Training with distillation is really simple once you have pre-processed the data:
+
+```bash
+python train.py \
+    --dump_path serialization_dir/my_first_training \
+    --data_file data/binarized_text.bert-base-uncased.pickle \
+    --token_counts data/token_counts.bert-base-uncased.pickle \
+    --force # overwrites the `dump_path` if it already exists.
+```
+
+By default, this will launch a training on a single GPU (even if more are available on the cluster). Other parameters are available in the command line, please look in `train.py` or run `python train.py --help` to list them.
+
+We highly encourage you to distributed training for training DistilBert as the training corpus is quite large. Here's an example that runs a distributed training on a single node having 4 GPUs:
+
+```bash
+export NODE_RANK=0
+export N_NODES=1
+
+export N_GPU_NODE=4
+export WORLD_SIZE=4
+export MASTER_PORT=<AN_OPEN_PORT>
+export MASTER_ADDR=<I.P.>
+
+pkill -f 'python -u train.py'
+
+python -m torch.distributed.launch \
+    --nproc_per_node=$N_GPU_NODE \
+    --nnodes=$N_NODES \
+    --node_rank $NODE_RANK \
+    --master_addr $MASTER_ADDR \
+    --master_port $MASTER_PORT \
+    train.py \
+        --force \
+        --n_gpu $WORLD_SIZE \
+        --data_file data/dump_concat_wiki_toronto_bk.bert-base-uncased.pickle \
+        --token_counts data/token_counts_concat_wiki_toronto_bk.bert-base-uncased.pickle \
+        --dump_path serialization_dir/with_transform/last_word
+```
+
+**Tips** Starting distillated training with good initialization of the model weights is crucial to reach decent performance. In our experiments, we initialized our model from a few layers of the teacher (Bert) itself! Please refer to `scripts/extract_for_distil.py` to create a valid initialization checkpoint and use `--from_pretrained_weights` and `--from_pretrained_config` arguments to use this initialization for the distilled training!
+
+Happy distillation!

+    DistilBERT is a small, fast, cheap and light Transformer model
+    trained by distilling Bert base. It has 40% less parameters than
+    `bert-base-uncased`, runs 60% faster while preserving over 95% of
+    Bert's performances as measured on the GLUE language understanding benchmark.
+
+    Here are the differences between the interface of Bert and DistilBert:
+
+    - DistilBert doesn't have `token_type_ids`, you don't need to indicate which token belongs to which segment. Just separate your segments with the separation token `tokenizer.sep_token` (or `[SEP]`)
+    - DistilBert doesn't have options to select the input positions (`position_ids` input). This could be added if necessary though, just let's us know if you need this option.
+
+    For more information on DistilBERT, please refer to our
+    `detailed blog post`_
+    
+    .. _`detailed blog post`:
