 BERT base Japanese (IPA dictionary)  This is a [BERT](https://github.com/google-research/bert) model pretrained on texts in the Japanese language.  This version of the model processes input texts with word-level tokenization based on the IPA dictionary, followed by the WordPiece subword tokenization.  The codes for the pretraining are available at [cl-tohoku/bert-japanese](https://github.com/cl-tohoku/bert-japanese/tree/v1.0).
