This model is [Distilbert base uncased](https://huggingface.co/distilbert-base-uncased) trained on SQuAD v2 as:

```
export SQUAD_DIR=../../squad2
python3 run_squad.py 
    --model_type distilbert 
    --model_name_or_path distilbert-base-uncased
    --do_train 
    --do_eval 
    --overwrite_cache 
    --do_lower_case 
    --version_2_with_negative 
    --save_steps 100000 
    --train_file $SQUAD_DIR/train-v2.0.json 
    --predict_file $SQUAD_DIR/dev-v2.0.json 
    --per_gpu_train_batch_size 8 
    --num_train_epochs 3 
    --learning_rate 3e-5 
    --max_seq_length 384 
    --doc_stride 128 
    --output_dir ./tmp/distilbert_fine_tuned/
```

Performance on a dev subset is close to the original paper:
