This model is a fine-tuned version of MARBERTv2. We finetuned this model for binary text classification (Neutral-Hate) on a sampled version of a custom Egyptian-Arabic hate speech dataset.

🔧 How to Use

python

import torch
from transformers import pipeline, AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification

device = "cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"

model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("IbrahimAmin/marbertv2-finetuned-egyptian-hate-speech-detection")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("IbrahimAmin/marbertv2-finetuned-egyptian-hate-speech-detection")

classifier = pipeline("text-classification", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer, device=device)
result = classifier("مبحبش الخلايجه")
print(result)

⚠️ Limitations & Biases

Trained specifically on Egyptian Arabic; performance may degrade on MSA or other dialects.
Social and political content may introduce bias in predictions.
Borderline and sarcastic content may be misclassified.

⚠️ Disclaimer

This model is intended for research and content moderation purposes and is not meant to offend, harm, or promote discrimination against any individual or group. It is important to use this model responsibly and consider the context in which it is applied. Any offensive content detected by the model should be treated with caution and handled appropriately.
