Bert - word embeddings from a text

Submitted by sonudofsilence t3_y19m36 in deeplearning

I would like to take the word embeddings of a text and visualize them at the same plot (for understanding reasons). The question is how i should pass the text into the pretrained BERT model? At first, i separated the text on sentences and passed each one separetely, but im not sure if this had the right results.

If you're talking about the contextual embeddings that BERT is known for then those change depending on the sentence used, so you need to supply the full sentence.

Yes, that's why i want to pass "all the text" into bert, because for example a word in a sentence has to have similar vector with the same word (with same meaning) in another sentence. How can i accomplish that, as the max tokens number of bert is 512?

You're supposed to pass in each sentence separately, as a list of sentences. You do not pass all the sentences as one string.
