Hello,

I’m interested in pre-training the Albert model on a large set of domain specific data. I see on GitHub that there is a `TFAlbertForPreTraining` class, but it is not showing up in the docs.

Is this class only there for the loading of pre-trained Albert models, or can I make use of this to do pre-training myself?

I think the team just forgot to put them in the docs. You can make a PR to add them or I’ll fix that next week when I’m back from vacation.
