The model has the same architectural dimensions as the GPT-2 small (12 layers, 12 heads, 1024 tokens on input/output, and embedding vectors with 768 dimensions) resulting in 124M trainable parameters. It was fine-tuned and evaluated on the SumeCzech summarization dataset containing about 1M Czech news articles. ## Tokenizer Along, we also provide a Czech trained tokenizer (vocab and merges) with vocab size of 50257 that was used during the pre-training phase and fine-tuning. It is the byte-level BPE tokenizer as used in the original GPT-2 paper. ## Training results The model was evaluated on the *test* and *ood-test* partitions of the SumeCzech dataset and compared to the best summarizers yet evaluated on this benchmark (the results taken from here). The headline generator is trained to decide itself when to stop (generate an <|endoftext|> token). If you want a variable summary length, refer to our summary generator We manage to exceed current state-of-the art on all standard metrics.

You can find more about the methodology and results in our paper referenced at the bottom of this card. ## Running the predictions The repository includes a simple Jupyter Notebook that can help with first steps when using the model.
