Fine-tuning a BERT model in PyTorch

Now that we have introduced and discussed all the necessary concepts and the theory behind the original transformer and popular transformer-based models, it’s time to take a look at the more practical part! In this section, you will learn how to fine-tune a BERT model for sentiment classification in PyTorch.

Note that although there are many other transformer-based models to choose from, BERT provides a nice balance between model popularity and having a manageable model size so that it can be fine-tuned on a single GPU. Note also that pre-training a BERT from scratch is painful and quite unnecessary considering the availability of the transformers Python package provided by Hugging Face, which includes a bunch of pre-trained models that are ready for fine-tuning.

In the following sections, you’ll see how to prepare and tokenize the IMDb movie review dataset and fine-tune the distilled BERT model to perform sentiment classification...
