How the embedding layers in Bert were implemented?
Like most deep learning models aimed at solving NLP-related tasks, BERT passes each input token (the words in the input text) through a Token Embedding layer so that each token is transformed into a vector representation. The reason for these additional embedding layers will become clear by the end of this article.
How does Tensorflow embedding layer work?
Embedding layer enables us to convert each word into a fixed length vector of defined size. The resultant vector is a dense one with having real values instead of just 0’s and 1’s. This way embedding layer works like a lookup table. The words are the keys in this table, while the dense word vectors are the values.
What is the embedding layer of Keras used for?
Embedding layer uses embedding matrix for mapping data and is never updated during training. There is no trainable parameters in the Keras Embedding layer. You can refer the Keras embedding layer docs for detailed understanding. Thanks for contributing an answer to Data Science Stack Exchange!
Are there trainable parameters in the embedding layer?

How is the embedding layer different from other layers?
The major difference with other layers, is that their output is not a mathematical function of the input. Instead the input to the layer is used to index a table with the embedding vectors [1].
What happens if mask _ zero is set to true in keras?
If this is True, then all subsequent layers in the model need to support masking or an exception will be raised. If mask_zero is set to True, as a consequence, index 0 cannot be used in the vocabulary (input_dim should equal size of vocabulary + 1).
