+**\*\*\*\*\* New March 11th, 2020: Smaller BERT Models \*\*\*\*\***
+
+This is a release of 24 smaller BERT models (English only, uncased, trained with WordPiece masking) referenced in [Well-Read Students Learn Better: On the Importance of Pre-training Compact Models](https://arxiv.org/abs/1908.08962).
+
+We have shown that the standard BERT recipe (including model architecture and training objective) is effective on a wide range of model sizes, beyond BERT-Base and BERT-Large. The smaller BERT models are intended for environments with restricted computational resources. They can be fine-tuned in the same manner as the original BERT models. However, they are most effective in the context of knowledge distillation, where the fine-tuning labels are produced by a larger and more accurate teacher.
+
+Our goal is to enable research in institutions with fewer computational resources and encourage the community to seek directions of innovation alternative to increasing model capacity.
+
+You can download all 24 from [here][all], or individually from the table below:

+
+Note that the BERT-Base model in this release is included for completeness only; it was re-trained under the same regime as the original model.
+
+Here are the corresponding GLUE scores on the test set:
+
+|Model|Score|CoLA|SST-2|MRPC|STS-B|QQP|MNLI-m|MNLI-mm|QNLI(v2)|RTE|WNLI|AX|
+|---|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|

+|BERT-Mini|65.8|0.0|85.9|81.1/71.8|75.4/73.3|66.4/86.2|74.8|74.3|84.1|57.9|62.3|26.1|

+
+For each task, we selected the best fine-tuning hyperparameters from the lists below, and trained for 4 epochs:
+- batch sizes: 8, 16, 32, 64, 128
+- learning rates: 3e-4, 1e-4, 5e-5, 3e-5
