Once you have obtained the checkpoints from NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NGC), you have to convert them to a format that will
easily be loaded by Hugging Face Transformers and our port of the BERT code.
The following commands allow you to do the conversion. We assume that the folder models/megatron_bert contains
megatron_bert_345m_v0_1_{cased, uncased}.zip and that the commands are run from inside that folder:
bash
python3 $PATH_TO_TRANSFORMERS/models/megatron_bert/convert_megatron_bert_checkpoint.py megatron_bert_345m_v0_1_uncased.zip
bash
python3 $PATH_TO_TRANSFORMERS/models/megatron_bert/convert_megatron_bert_checkpoint.py megatron_bert_345m_v0_1_cased.zip
