+# BETO (Spanish BERT) + Spanish SQuAD2.0 + distillation using 'bert-base-multilingual-cased' as teacher
+
+This model is a fine-tuned on [SQuAD-es-v2.0](https://github.com/ccasimiro88/TranslateAlignRetrieve) and **distilled** version of [BETO](https://github.com/dccuchile/beto) for **Q&A**.
+
+Distillation makes the model smaller, fasert, cheaper and lighter than [bert-base-spanish-wwm-cased-finetuned-spa-squad2-es](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/master/model_cards/mrm8488/bert-base-spanish-wwm-cased-finetuned-spa-squad2-es/README.md)
+
+This model was fine-tuned on the same dataset but using **distillation** during the process as mentioned above (and one more train epoch).
+
+The **teacher model** for the distillation was `bert-base-multilingual-cased`. It is the same teacher used for `distilbert-base-multilingual-cased` AKA [**DistilmBERT**](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/examples/distillation) (on average is twice as fast as **mBERT-base**).

+
+## Model training
+
+The model was trained on a Tesla P100 GPU and 25GB of RAM with the following command:
+
+```bash
+!export SQUAD_DIR=/path/to/squad-v2_spanish \
+&& python transformers/examples/distillation/run_squad_w_distillation.py \
+  --model_type bert \
+  --model_name_or_path dccuchile/bert-base-spanish-wwm-cased \
+  --teacher_type bert \
+  --teacher_name_or_path bert-base-multilingual-cased \
+  --do_train \
+  --do_eval \
+  --do_lower_case \
+  --train_file $SQUAD_DIR/train-v2.json \
+  --predict_file $SQUAD_DIR/dev-v2.json \
+  --per_gpu_train_batch_size 12 \
+  --learning_rate 3e-5 \
+  --num_train_epochs 3.0 \
+  --max_seq_length 384 \
+  --doc_stride 128 \
+  --output_dir /content/model_output \
+  --save_steps 5000 \
+  --threads 4 \
+  --version_2_with_negative
+```

+## Comparison:
+
+|                              Model                              | f1 score  |

+|       bert-base-spanish-wwm-cased-finetuned-spa-squad2-es       |   86.07   |
+| **distill**-bert-base-spanish-wwm-cased-finetuned-spa-squad2-es | **90.50** |
+
+So, yes, this version is even more accurate.
