Usage
from transformers import AutoTokenizer # Or BertTokenizer
from transformers import AutoModelForPreTraining # Or BertForPreTraining for loading pretraining heads
from transformers import AutoModel # or BertModel, for BERT without pretraining heads
model = AutoModelForPreTraining.from_pretrained('neuralmind/bert-large-portuguese-cased')
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('neuralmind/bert-large-portuguese-cased', do_lower_case=False)
