The paper surveys language models created for Portuguese, noting that while rapid progress has been made in NLP, development has been uneven across languages. It systematically maps 46 Portuguese models, detailing aspects such as base model, architecture, resources, datasets, licensing, code, data, and weights. The study also traces model evolution phylogenetically, highlights research gaps, and outlines future directions for Portuguese language modeling.
