ELECTRA replaces masked language modeling with replaced token detection, yielding contextual representations that outperform BERT at equal compute and match larger models like RoBERTa with far less compute.

REALM augments language-model pre-training with an unsupervised retriever over Wikipedia documents and reports 4-16% absolute gains on open-domain QA benchmarks over prior implicit and explicit knowledge methods.
BART introduces a denoising pretraining method for seq2seq models that matches RoBERTa on GLUE and SQuAD while setting new state-of-the-art results on abstractive summarization, dialogue, and QA with up to 6 ROUGE gains.
T5 casts all NLP tasks as text-to-text generation, systematically explores pre-training choices, and reaches strong performance on summarization, QA, classification and other tasks via large-scale training on the Colossal Clean Crawled Corpus.
ALBERT reduces BERT parameters via embedding factorization and layer sharing, adds inter-sentence coherence pretraining, and reaches SOTA on GLUE, RACE, and SQuAD with fewer parameters than BERT-large.
Intra-layer model parallelism in PyTorch enables training of 8.3B-parameter transformers, achieving SOTA perplexity of 10.8 on WikiText103 and 66.5% accuracy on LAMBADA.
Hugging Face releases an open-source Python library that supplies a unified API and pretrained weights for major Transformer architectures used in natural language processing.
With better hyperparameters, more data, and longer training, an unchanged BERT-Large architecture matches or exceeds XLNet and other successors on GLUE, SQuAD, and RACE.
PortBERT releases two RoBERTa models for Portuguese that match or beat prior monolingual and multilingual models on translated GLUE/SuperGLUE tasks while reporting training and inference times.
