+## Pretraining Corpus
+
+`arabic-bert-base` model was pretrained on ~8.2 Billion words:
+
+- Arabic version of [OSCAR](https://traces1.inria.fr/oscar/) - filtered from [Common Crawl](http://commoncrawl.org/)
+- Recent dump of Arabic [Wikipedia](https://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html)
+
+and other Arabic resources which sum up to ~95GB of text.
+
+__Notes on training data:__
+
+- Our final version of corpus contains some non-Arabic words inlines, which we did not remove from sentences since that would affect some tasks like NER.
+- Although non-Arabic characters were lowered as a preprocessing step, since Arabic characters does not have upper or lower case, there is no cased and uncased version of the model.
+- The corpus and vocabulary set are not restricted to Modern Standard Arabic, they contain some dialectical Arabic too.
+
+## Pretraining details
+
+- This model was trained using Google BERT's github [repository](https://github.com/google-research/bert) on a single TPU v3-8 provided for free from [TFRC](https://www.tensorflow.org/tfrc).
+- Our pretraining procedure follows training settings of bert with some changes: trained for 3M training steps with batchsize of 128, instead of 1M with batchsize of 256.
+
+## Load Pretrained Model
+
+You can use this model by installing `torch` or `tensorflow` and Huggingface library `transformers`. And you can use it directly by initializing it like this:  
+
+```python
+from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
+
+tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("asafaya/bert-base-arabic")
+model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("asafaya/bert-base-arabic")
+```
+

+## Acknowledgement
+
+Thanks to Google for providing free TPU for the training process and for Huggingface for hosting this model on their servers 😊
