# A Complete Guide to BERT with Code

**[Towards Data Science](https://daily.dev/sources/tds)** · 45 min read · 24 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

The post provides a complete guide to BERT, including its history, architecture, pre-training objectives, and fine-tuning for sentiment analysis. It discusses the key features of BERT, such as its encoder-only architecture, pre-training approach, model fine-tuning, and use of bidirectional context. The post also covers the tokenization process, creating train and validation data loaders, instantiating a BERT model, and setting up an optimizer, loss function, and scheduler for fine-tuning. The fine-tuning loop is explained, highlighting the steps taken for each epoch and within each batch.
