ParsBERT is a monolingual language model based on Google’s BERT architecture. This model is pre-trained on large Persian corpora with various writing styles from numerous subjects (e.g., scientific, novels, news) with more than 3.9M documents, 73M sentences, and 1.3B words.

ParsBERT trained on a massive amount of public corpora (Persian Wikidumps, MirasText) and six other manually crawled text data from a various type of websites (BigBang Page scientific, Chetor lifestyle, Eligasht itinerary, Digikala digital magazine, Ted Talks general conversational, Books novels, storybooks, short stories from old to the contemporary era).
As a part of ParsBERT methodology, an extensive pre-processing combining POS tagging and WordPiece segmentation was carried out to bring the corpora into a proper format.
ParsBERT is evaluated on three NLP downstream tasks: Sentiment Analysis (SA), Text Classification, and Named Entity Recognition (NER). For this matter and due to insufficient resources, two large datasets for SA and two for text classification were manually composed, which are available for public use and benchmarking. ParsBERT outperformed all other language models, including multilingual BERT and other hybrid deep learning models for all tasks, improving the state-of-the-art performance in Persian language modeling.
The following table summarizes the F1 score obtained by ParsBERT as compared to other models and architectures.

The new version of BERT v3.0 for Persian is available today and can tackle the zero-width non-joiner character for Persian writing. Also, the model was trained on new multi-types corpora with a new set of vocabulary.
Available by: HooshvareLab/bert-fa-zwnj-base
ParsBERT v2.0: We reconstructed the vocabulary and fine-tuned the ParsBERT v1.1 on the new Persian corpora in order to provide some functionalities for using ParsBERT in other scopes! Objective goals during training are as below (after 300K steps).
