MOTIVATIONS

<b>Goal 1</b> FinBERT-Prime_128MSL-500K+512MSL-10K vs BERT

• Compare mask LM prediction accurracy on technical financial sentences
• Compare analogy on financial relationships

<b>Goal 2</b> FinBERT-Prime_128MSL-500K vs FinBERT-Pre2K_128MSL-500K

• Compare mask LM prediction accuracy on financial news from 2019
• Compare analogy on financial relationship, measure shift in understanding : risk vs climate in 1999 vs 2019

<b>Goal 3</b> FinBERT-Prime_128MSL-500K vs FinBERT-Prime_128MSK-500K+512MSL-10K

• Compare mask LM prediction accuracy on long financial sentences

<b>Goal 4</b> FinBERT-Combo_128MSL-250K vs FinBERT-Prime_128MSL-500K+512MSL-10K

• Compare mask LM prediction accuracy on financial sentences : can we get same accuracy with less training by building on original BERT weights.
