## AI research

Musixmatch best-known open contribution is **UmBERTo**, a RoBERTa-based Italian language
model trained with SentencePiece tokenization and Whole Word Masking on 70GB of
deduplicated Italian text from the OSCAR corpus (~11B words). It set a new bar
for Italian NLP and remains a widely used baseline.

| Model | Task | Score |
|---|---|---|
| UmBERTo (CommonCrawl, cased) | NER — WikiNER-ITA | **92.5 F1** |
| UmBERTo (CommonCrawl, cased) | NER — ICAB-EvalITA07 | **87.6 F1** |
| UmBERTo (CommonCrawl, cased) | POS — UD Italian-ISDT | **98.9 acc** |
