BERT4RE - A Retrained BERT Model for Supporting Requirements Engineering Tasks

We present BERT4RE, a domain-specific LM aiming to support a wide range of requirements engineering (RE) tasks, including classifying requirements, detecting language issues, identifying key domain concepts, and establishing requirements traceability links. We developed BERT4RE based on the generic BERT-base model and retrained it on a range of publicly available requirements documents, with more than seven million words.
