Automatic punctuation restoration with BERT models

Abstract
We present an approach for automatic punctuation restoration with BERT models for English and Hungarian. For English, we conduct our experiments on Ted Talks, a commonly used benchmark for punctuation restoration, while for Hungarian we evaluate our models on the Szeged Treebank dataset. Our best models achieve a macro-averaged -score of 79.8 in English and 82.2 in Hungarian. Our code is publicly available.
