The main idea of BERTScore is to use a language model that is good at understanding text, like BERT, and use it to evaluate the similarity between two sentences, a Y in your test set and a Y’ representing the model-generated text. I use a BERT WordPiece tokenizer to generate IDs for each token of each sentence, generating a [40, 30523] array.

BERT BERT, an acronym that stands for “Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers,” was one of the first foundation models and pre-dated the term by several years. BERT proved useful in several ways, including quantifying sentiment and predicting the words likely to follow in unfinished sentences.

BERT BERT uses a transformer-based architecture, which allows it to effectively handle longer input sequences and capture context from both the left and right sides of a token or word (the B in BERT stands for bi-directional). This allows BERT to learn a deeper sense of the context in which words appear.
