# MobileBERT
## Overview
The MobileBERT model was proposed in [MobileBERT: a Compact Task-Agnostic BERT for Resource-Limited Devices](https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.02984) by Zhiqing Sun, Hongkun Yu, Xiaodan Song, Renjie Liu, Yiming Yang, and Denny
Zhou. It's a bidirectional transformer based on the BERT model, which is compressed and accelerated using several
approaches.
The abstract from the paper is the following:
*Natural Language Processing (NLP) has recently achieved great success by using huge pre-trained models with hundreds
of millions of parameters. However, these models suffer from heavy model sizes and high latency such that they cannot
be deployed to resource-limited mobile devices. In this paper, we propose MobileBERT for compressing and accelerating
the popular BERT model. Like the original BERT, MobileBERT is task-agnostic, that is, it can be generically applied to
various downstream NLP tasks via simple fine-tuning. Basically, MobileBERT is a thin version of BERT_LARGE, while
equipped with bottleneck structures and a carefully designed balance between self-attentions and feed-forward networks.
To train MobileBERT, we first train a specially designed teacher model, an inverted-bottleneck incorporated BERT_LARGE
model. Then, we conduct knowledge transfer from this teacher to MobileBERT. Empirical studies show that MobileBERT is
4.3x smaller and 5.5x faster than BERT_BASE while achieving competitive results on well-known benchmarks. On the
natural language inference tasks of GLUE, MobileBERT achieves a GLUEscore o 77.7 (0.6 lower than BERT_BASE), and 62 ms
latency on a Pixel 4 phone. On the SQuAD v1.1/v2.0 question answering task, MobileBERT achieves a dev F1 score of
90.0/79.2 (1.5/2.1 higher than BERT_BASE).*
Tips:
- MobileBERT is a model with absolute position embeddings so it's usually advised to pad the inputs on the right rather
than the left.
- MobileBERT is similar to BERT and therefore relies on the masked language modeling (MLM) objective. It is therefore
efficient at predicting masked tokens and at NLU in general, but is not optimal for text generation. Models trained
with a causal language modeling (CLM) objective are better in that regard.
